"...Democratic senators led by Charles E. Schumer of New York is appealing to Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to block a set of contentious no-bid oil contracts that Iraq has decided to award to the Western oil giants Exxon Mobil, Shell, Total and BP."

Chucky, I realize you haven't been paying attention but Iraq is a sovereign nation and can award contracts to whomever they want.

Chucky has this idea that Iraq is a colony. At the same time he doesn't want America to have more oil.

The real question here is why the State of New York allowed its public education system to fall into such disarray for so long.

Gad!

They were just yelling about how the Iraqi weren’t paying their own way with their oil but when they try to do so with some help they get this crap from this congress.

Not to mention the fact that only one of those companies is American. Does Schumer really need to be upset that Iraq cut some oil deals with countries in Europe?

[Congressman Billybob]

The Democrats have accused the Republicans of "going to war to steal Iraq's oil." Now, as in other instances, the Democrats are taking steps to create exactly the harm they accuse the Republicans of.

That, plus the fact that Chucky Shumer wants to get on TV again, seems to explain this stupidity.

Sounds almost like... “Blood for Oil”
