Please either stick to the point or start a new thread. There's already a thread here about the oil spill.


My thread is GWB, this week, saying that America needs to reduce it's dependance on foreign oil and do it by means of alternative renewable energy.


But if you need some links to obscure facts about the war for middle eastern oil - here's the recently uncovered Truman policy -

The Persian Gulf: Understanding the American Oil Strategy - Brookings Institution

The salient points as outlined by the Brookings Institute in the summer of 2002 - prior to the UN invasion after Saddam's eviction of UN nuclear inspectors:
what you are looking at is a map of Iraq divided into 8 sections with a different oil company for each section ala Cheney. this was in 2001. "give me a reason to go into Iraq" [W] he's a Bush,you know. I just thought I'd make a comparison between the irony that was your attempt at proving Bush isn't an oil man & the fact that a so called "commie,socialist Lib" like Costner turns out to be a capitalist pig after all. wouldn't it be absolutely comical if a Hollywood Lib had the answer to the disaster caused by BP? GWB is right. Jimmy Carter tried to make the bold step to reduce our dependence on foreign oil & mandated a government agency dedicated to it, but Reagan squashed it when he came in. he even removed the solar panels on the White House. I may indeed come off as being "non sensical" but it ain't my fault. I'm on my off day & the beer is cold.
