Vic, I think you got it wrong.

We are there because the Iraqi people love freedom and democracy, just as we
told them they should. They are going to learn about the wonders of
democracy and free enterprise, wherein stock options can be back-dated and

And don't believe the stories about Schultz, Cheney, Rice, Bush, et. al.
saying that oil revenues would pay for the war and keep prices low.

I hope you invested in Exxon Mobil on 9/12/01 like everyone in Whitehorse
did.
