I've said on this thread that I would fully support a war for oil.

We need it, they have it, let's go get it.

But, if that is the "real" reason the neo-cons took us to war, then they are deceitful liars, and should not be trusted.

See the point? I'm not so against the War in Iraq itself, but the people running it and the transparent things they tell us.

What we have now is known as "mission creep".

I say screw the UN, screw France, screw the Democrats. If we have to go to war to secure the value of the dollar or our oil interests, fine. Just tell us so, Mr. Bush.
