Are they probing into how billions of dollars of OUR money just vanished into thin air in Iraq? Of course not.

What a pathetic attempt to rationalize the invasion. WMDs are out. Democracy is out too, since the Iraqi government cannot exist outside of the Green Zone. Now, it is some vague oil deals and corruption.

Yeah, that's a good reason to lose 1700+ US lives and $300B+ of OUR money -- because there were some shady characters making money on the side in oil deals.

Truly pathetic!

Funny how Bushie oil companies never get mentioned by the rightwing when they try to divert attention from their own much-much bigger scandals by pointing at the UN. Bushie oil companies were a huge part of the oil-for-food program, Saddam's biggest customers. Duh.

Like Bush's DOD giving Halliburton a 72 million bonus last week for over-charging us, operating illegally in Iran and ripping off billions?
