Bravo!! I could not agree more!! You are right on.

The CIA is doing much better since the Republicans denounced and removed the Torricelli Principle.

```Iraqi assets (oil $$$ and frozen/tainted assets) are gonna have to finance both the war and reconstruction```


Here's some money we can get, but it will upset the French, as it's in their banks.

Bet that really gets them. Usually I see that little kernel of wisdom on the bumpers of lefties' cars.

Precisely.
The Left in the good old USA tried to pin this epitath on the Right, but it was not fitting & it did not stick.

In Iraq, it is a polite understatement..........

Those who are bound by cubicles, carrels, compartments, coops, cubbyholes, chambers, and cotes shall rise up some day and take their rightful places in society.

The meek shall inherit the Earth ... after the strong have finished with it.

Can us ladies get a belly boy or hero picture too?

[mwl1]

Tough luck if it upsets the French. Freeze the assets. What are the French gonna do, tattle to the Security Council?

I see the UN has really important things to "debate" about...Hey UN! You are IRRELEVANT!

[Lauratealeaf]

Translated in means: "You don't know WTF you're talking about"...."let me help you pull your head out of your ass"...

LOL! I love it when Torie uses the term "push back". You know it probably really bugs the sissy press (with apologies to the great poster, SissyJane)

[Howlin]

The Security Council, as we type, is doing everything it can go get its hands on that oil for money fund. The UN makes about 22 MILLION dollars a year on it.

[The Wizard]

And Torie Set her right on it, too

Rescued......Torie has the edge you need to deal with "journalist generals"

I'm waiting for the day some asshole asks her one of these f'ed up questions and she just looks to someone else and says "NEXT".

Show these arrogant chair pillows that she will answer the questions she deems appropriate and that if you cross her, you won't exist

[mhking]

Boom!

BOOM!

Good? GOOD???..RagtimeCowgirl is AWESOME....amazing fingers...

[cajungirl]

My guess is that Lynch has been thru hell and would not appreciate being a pin up. A heroin maybe for surviving, but not in the same page with the beloved belly girl who is a pinup of sorts.

[AppyPappy]

How about we give Belly Boy and Belly Girl their own thread?

[Jim Noble]

>>By the way, I embrace every moral right to take the amount we've spent in this war and subsequent reconstruction off the top of the oil proceeds we're going to create for the new Iraqi society<<

Why do you accept the dubious proposition that "the oil belongs to the people of Iraq" to begin with?

What did the "people of Iraq" do with "their" oil before we found it, developed an infrastructure to extract it, developed a transportation system to send it around the world to be sold on markets that we developed?

And if our technical and marketing expertise were to be withdrawn, what would they do with it?

Drink it?

The oil of the Middle East should by right belong to those who discovered it and developed technology to make use of it.

And, as a matter of fact, it does belong to them by right-the right of contract, which perfectly legal and valid contracts were abrogated by those moon God worshipping barbarians who "represent" the people of so-called "Iraq", "Saudi Arabia" and the other dungheaps over there.

Don't apologize for taking what's ours already.

[The Wizard]

you do a fine job in those reconstructions

[Lauratealeaf]

In Iraq, it is a polite understatement..........

So true. I do like understatement. It's so.....subliminable.

[AppyPappy]

Where are you booming?
