16. In several speeches, he has made reference to our dependence
on foreign oil being at the root of what is going on in Iraq and in our tenuous relationship with the Saudi's. I don't have time to look up a link, but yes, I think he realizes oil plays a BIG part is the reason why we are there.

But you forgot, WATER is also a big reason for this war. The Tigres and Euphrates river are a source for MUCH of the Middle East and Bush also wanted to Enronize water.

I do not feel he has been turned into his own opposite. What happened to you as a liberal, that you would use a medium such as DU ( a widely read forum) in order to undermine the single best chance of getting rid of Bush?

I know we are here to debate topics and the like and always felt we had more in common than not. I am just not willing to bite my nose to spite my face. But your posts regarding Kerry indicate you seem to be willing to do so.

Is it your hope that Kerry loses?

Is that the end you are trying to accomplish?

I can't think of another reason why your every post would be FAR more critical of Kerry than of Bush. And don't tell me it's principles. It's PROPAGANDA plain and simple.
