No, Bush was right.
"I was not saying that that's the administration's motive," Greenspan said in an interview Saturday, "I'm just saying that if somebody asked me, 'Are we fortunate in taking out Saddam?' I would say it was essential."
Hardly controversial and considerably different than the sensational take of much media coverage. I am more aggrieved that we had a Chairman who seems to support Hillery.
Greenspan’s criticism of Bush, and especially Vicente Fox’s disparaging remark that Bush is the cockiest person he’d ever met who spoke grammar school Spanish pi$$ed me off. Even Bush’s grammar school Spanish is better Spanish than most of the uneducated masses he rules. And I’d love to hear Fox’s English.
Bush has been as kind as possible to our souther neighbor,a nd he gets kicked in the a$$ for it.
No wonder the country is such a joke.

Even if securing the world’s oil supply was a motive, it is not the same as “stealing Iraq’s oil,” which is the slander routinely put out by the Left.
Boy, does he want to sell a lot of books! LOL.
Alan: Honey, the book is finally finished! Hey, you seen my truss anywhere?
Andrea: That’s great honey! Ah, your truss is over there, on the lamp shade where you left it.
Alan: Oh yeah. Hey, want to read a little of the book?
Andrea: Just give me a quick over view.
Alan: Ok, well, its just about the time at the Fed and how everything worked out pretty good, except for not doing something about that sub-prime lending thingy.
Andrea: Honey, you know that stuff isn’t going to sell, unless you are trying to sell a cure for insomina! You need to spice it up with some “dish” on conservatives, talk about how the war is Bush’s fault so my network will pay attention! THAT will get the boys in the press room working overtime and insure plenty of sales!
Alan: You think so?
Andrea: Of course I do! It will get you number one on the Times Best Seller list, guaranteed! Think of it! Why, I am getting excited all over right now!
Alan: Right now?
Andrea: Right now!
Alan: Hehe! You want me to go get my little bottle of blue pills?
Andrea: Ahh, gee honey, I, ahh, have to meet, ahh, you know that guy, ahh, Keith Ober-somthing or other. He, ahh, he needs to discuss that, ahh, meeting thing.
Alan: But snookie pants, it’s been four months! I’ve got all this pent up energy!
Andrea: You just put all that “extra energy” into rewriting that book of yours and we’ll see. Maybe after we do an interview on 60 Minutes!
Alan: But wouldn’t you want me to have the interview on your own network? With that Keith Ober-whac-a-ma-call-it?
Andrea: Are you kidding? NOBODY with an IQ above 3 watches that idiot!
Alan: Well, you know best, cutie pootie.
Andrea: Alan, time for your meds again ...
Economic security is an important issue for a nation and a culture.
Strong nations realize this and act in their interests.
Hey Alan!
SHADDUP!
Rush on this now...
Greenspan has an agenda. A very elite one. Beware
To deny that oil was a factor would be disingenuous- to claim it was the driving factor would be . . . . . . disingenuous. To claim we would never use oil as a factor would be suicidal.
saying that while securing global oil supplies was "not the administration's motive," he had presented the White House with the case for why removing Hussein was important for the global economy. "I was not saying that that's the administration's motive," Greenspan said in an interview Saturday, "I'm just saying that if somebody asked me, 'Are we fortunate in taking out Saddam?' I would say it was essential."
The title got me excited (even though correct) I thought they meant Hussein Obama.
