Ah ha–it is the oil stupid. Gary, why do you think Americans have so much difficulty acknowledging the obvious? Why in hell would we reelect a guy so `oily' as to be unable to consider something as unremarkable as an alternate energy source?
This guy, the `C' student, has so well served not just his oil buddies but fulfilled bin Laden's wildest dreams; not only have we achieved, with our characteristic `can do' abilities, the creation of a veritable hot house for terrorist training, a political vacuum and the disruption of significant oil supplies, but a terrific opportunity for Iran to consolidate its growing threat by occupying significant portions, if not all, of Iraq upon our inevitable departure. Why when we had a choice, did we not consider spending a portion of these resources on sources of alternate energy? Cause we lack the required imagination, intellectual capital and labor, having grown fat and lazy living off the genius of others; we prefer instead to read our former reviews as the shining light and suffer the daily abuse of our failed marriage to big oil. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, Lighty <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 1/18/05 3:11 PM, "Tyler, Mark" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > At my age I avoid cheese but other than that I agree that the purpose of the > > Iraq invasion was to have a greater, permanent, presence in the middle of Oil > > Country.

If we never needed oil, what would the Arab nations do? Yahoo!
