We should give ANWR to another country. Then we wouldn't feel so guilty about taking oil from it =)

Cute! Another idea is while we are disposing of Saddam, we should take his oil fields and occupy Basra. This would fly with the PC clowns, as we would be doing this for two reasons:
A.) To guaranty a stable oil supply to the West B.) To exact "repararations" from a terrorist harboring state. (Reparations are chic now)
With the Iraqi oil fields we would get all the $5.oo/bbl oil we need for our domestic production and still sell it "Cheaply" to the EU, Japan, etc for a tidy profit to help pay for all our losses caused by 30 years of terrorist attacks, and some punitive damages as well. When we are satisfied that the damages have been satisfied, we can give them back their oil fields, if there is any oil left they can go back to their miserable lives.
