Oh, I missed that memo. We invaded because the sanctions we placed on them resulted in carnage? Cheney said inspctions wouldn't work, look out for the mushroom. Rummy said they were liars but that he didn't know what he didn't know.
Iraq is guilty of lousey bookkeeping. But so is George.

That was all but over and 100,000 Iraqi kids were dying every day...

That's 36.5 million kids per year. Iraq only has a population of 25 million.

...because of the corruption of the oil for food program.

That's utterly ridiculous.

You sure? 100,000/day is over 3 million a month, 36,500,000 a year; at that rate everyone in the country (not just children) would be dead in less than a year. I think you slipped a digit.
