Not us, we havent been buying iraqi oil for years, We actually HAVE been buying some Iraqi oil; but it doesn't matter. Oil is a commodity -- it all flows into the commodity markets and is effectively pooled with other oil and sold off. It isn't as though we're trading directly with Iraq; we're just buying it from some unknown seller. It just turns out that we end up buying some oil from Iraq. I don't think it is the 50% figure the guy mentioned, howeve.r..

"Not us, we havent been buying iraqi oil for years," You are uninformed....unless things changed in the last month or so, we are buying 800K barrels/day from Saddam.... " our untapped reserves are more than enough if drilled to take us to the hydrogen era." I don't suppose you have a link to support that statement??? ANWR won't do it.....
