If oil is in shorter supply it makes more sense to grab the oil we can, even if its costly to do so, than if oil is plentiful."

Not being too greedy are you? Is that the conservative philosophy? The hell with the next guy, let's get as much as we can right now for ourselves...

Depending on your point view....The Saudi's control their oil pretty tightly and they are an "ally". Kuwait is also friendly and we purchase most of theirs. But Iraq's Saddam, a dictator hated by the Bushies, an easy target, and a great place to fight a war.....and the second largest, some say largest, reserves in the world....
