There is what Democrats say, and then there is the truth.

I can't wait to hear the offical version of what happened.

You mean Democrats are actually admitting there WAS an Oil For Food scandal?

As Levin makes these allegations, Billary, McDermott, Biden and a few others are over in the corner going "Shh, Shh... Hush dammit; we don't want anyone looking too closely at any American involvement in this. We have Swiss accounts that won't bear any scrutiny".

The real question is, did the US Navy know, at the tie, that the oil was "illicit"? Iraq was ALLOWED to sell oil under Oil for Food. The corruption was "behind the scenes"! I'd like the answer to THAT question before any other.

We need to look into the mirror at ourselves...

I can sense where this is headed based on the 2003 timeframe. When democrats look into a mirror for "blame", they see republicans in the reflection.

"We need to look into the mirror at ourselves, as well as point fingers at others," said Democratic Senator Carl Levin.

Hi, I'm Carl Levin.

We in the Democrat Party say:
BLAME AMERICA FIRST!

Very good point..........
Democrats ? you can't have it both ways,,,, either it happened, it it didn't.
If you want to blame America, then ? you have to blame France, the EU, and your old buddy Saddam

It would be funny if Democrats were found part of the scandal. Would Scott Ritter be part of it? I can hear the DUmmies choking their own neck. Probably the next thing would do is shout conspiracy theories.

Who or what Democrats would be involved in this scandal ? if the news were to come out, that some Democrats were involved in this scandal ?
If they were " OUTED " and exposed, we can see the even farther implosion of the American Liberal Democratic Party of America, and the MSM with them.

"It would be funny if Democrats were found part of the scandal."

They will be. When cornered you attack. Best way to tell if you are doing something right is to give it to a liberal. Whatever they do, do the opposite.
