I'll say... My thoughts exactly. Imagine what it would take for them to come out and suggest outright selling those funds? Late trading may be more widespread than thought

Iraq needs to import oil. WTF? biz.yahoo.com Earlier this year Halliburton was granted, without competition, a contract by the Army Corps of Engineers to repair and restore Iraq's oil fields. As of Sept 8, the total cost of that contract to taxpayers was just under $948 million, spokesman Scott Saunders said on Friday. That's about $200 million higher than projected just last month, mostly because the U.S. has been forced to import oil and fuels into Iraq, which has the world's second-largest oil reserves after Saudi Arabia. Importing oil, gasoline, diesel and propane is costing the United States about $6 million per day. "We didn't expect to have this much trouble getting production back up, or to have pipelines blown up and power stations sabotaged," Corps spokesman Scott Saunders said.
