I purposely didn't listen to the speech last night. Dubya, IMHO, can't dupe Saddam this time the way George Herbert Walker did with former Iraqi Ambassador April Glaspie.
True, we need the oil. But there are things that rub me the wrong way - media silence re: the recent signing of a Unocal contract to build a pipeline across Afhganistan. The Taliban were in Sugar Land, TX, only a couple of months before 9/11.
It galls me that our troops are in fact working for giant corporations!
And if nobody likes what I'm saying, I really have ceased to care.
Oh those diabolical Bushies, getting the Taliban to fly jetliners into the World Trade Center just so they could score cheap crude from the Afghani pipeline. Evil geniuses, they are!
