Oh bloody h*ll. The more we learn about the Liberal government, the more shocked I become. Jeez, these guys are starting to make the Democrats appear marginally ethical by comparison.
There are just too many liberal politicians, even in the U.S., that were just too protective of Saddam.
Saddam bought so many liberal politicians and UN reps that he thought he had bought immunity.
Our media won't look for any Saddam connections to the Democrats and they would bury any such findings.
I'll bet the farm that money flowed into the democrat party in the USA. Absolutely. Without a doubt
Now we can see why Canada was against us going after Iraq and Saddam.
Cretien and his family are significant shareholders in Elf Fina/Total Petroleum, a major pre-invasion beneficiary of Iraqi oil, while Martin and his mentor Maurice Strong and a host of unsavory characters invested in oil companies operating in Iraq. The stink will become huge as this monumental scam unfolds.
