Now that the oil production is up, can we finally start stealing it? That’s the only reason we went there, right?

but it does bring up an interesting point:
not that oil production is up, can they start shouldering a larger monetary burden for this war? |

Now that oil production is up it merely highlights the foolishness of the whole adventure...had we simply lifted the sanctions this level of production wuld have been reached YEARS ago! I think a quick pass by the gas pump will demonstrate the folly of this Neo-Con Social Engineering experiment and highlight our decline...Remember "Decline" is the new "quagmire" no post is complete unless we refer to "decline." |

Utter failure ... no argument ... decline ... Europeans better ... Bush incompetent ... Shia, Sunni, fight forever ... partition and pull out ... no metrics .......
Well, no one from the usual crowd has shown up to fill in the usual boilerplate, and the thread just seemed incomplete without it. |

Boy, those four years just flew on by. Heckuva job, Brownies!
Memory lane...
When Administration officials stopped being vague, they started being unrealistic. On March 27, eight days into combat, members of the House Appropriations Committee asked Paul Wolfowitz for a figure. He told them that whatever it was, Iraq’s oil supplies would keep it low. "There’s a lot of money to pay for this," he said. "It doesn’t have to be U.S. taxpayer money. We are dealing with a country that can really finance its own reconstruction, and relatively soon." On April 23 Andrew Natsios, of USAID, told an incredulous Ted Koppel, on Nightline, that the total cost to America of reconstructing Iraq would be $1.7 billion. Koppel shot back, "I mean, when you talk about one-point-seven, you’re not suggesting that the rebuilding of Iraq is gonna be done for one-point-seven billion dollars?" Natsios was clear: "Well, in terms of the American taxpayers’ contribution, I do; this is it for the U.S. The rest of the rebuilding of Iraq will be done by other countries who have already made pledges ... But the American part of this will be one-point-seven billion dollars. We have no plans for any further-on funding for this.Utter failure ... no argument ... decline ... Europeans better ... Bush incompetent ... Shia, Sunni, fight forever ... partition and pull out ... no metrics ....... Actually, d*ck-swinging shadowboxing with the conveniently cariactured stand-ins who live inside some folks’ heads is the real usual boilerplate around here. If they can’t be bothered to play, you color them in anyway.. |
