Dude, please tell us you're not actually silly enough to be in that group of people that thinks the stuff in Iraq has to do with oil...

Boy, I remember being in high school with my "No Blood For Oil" t-shirt. Never thought I would have to save it for my 10-year reunion.

Dude, please don't tell me you're silly enough to be in that group of people that thinks it has nothing to do with oil.

Eh, we both have the right to believe what we want, but until I see some proof of that other than opinion columns with facts that basically say "Iraq has a lot of oil, and we like oil, so that must be why we're attacking them," I'm going to choose to believe that that's a load of malarky.

Makes me wonder if we were at war with Germany again if people would be saying all the bloodshed was because we wanted to corner the market on bratwurst...

I am an unsolicited spam!

Also, I probably won't go see Hell's Belles again. It was fun, but a one-time thing. However, the opener, "Hell Promise," owned the fucking speed-metal phone.

Love, SJ

It does have to do with oil. Saudi Arabia's oil. We buy the majority of our oil from the #1 supporter of international terrorism in the world, and can't put any pressure on them because they have us by the nuts. Taking out Hussein gives us the chance to have an alternate source of energy. The Saudi's don't want to lose their piggy bank, and since they have been scaling back their support for groups like Hezbollah and Al Qaeda the terrorist groups have been biting the hand that used to feed them. Doing terrorist acts in the holy city of Mecca lost them a hell of a lot of support among moderate muslims worldwide.
But hey, what do I know, it's alot more fun to scream "No blood for oil" and stop people from getting to work during "Die-in" protests.
