Just as bad?
I am still mad as hell at the news that the mafia or "Family" controls the five major oil companies in Iraq.
"The companies include the four original partners in the Iraq Petroleum Company, which have wanted to get back in for 36 years. Mission accomplished. The four returning companies are Exxon, Mobil, Shell, British Petroleum and the French outfit Total. Exxon‘s former CEO, Lee Raymond, telling “Newsweek” last year, quote, “we basically had the whole country.” Sounded wistful.
More recently, the four companies have been advising Iraq about oil, for free, a factor that helped them win these new, no-bid contracts, contracts that are relatively small, but might just amount to footholds in the still emerging Iraqi oil fields, said to be on par with Iran‘s. Iran‘s, the second largest in the world.
Chevron, not one of the original four families, gets a taste, too, along with the Bazini brothers."

Instead of waging war in Iraq we should have waged war on those Italian bastards the Bazinis, and the other families, who have caused the gas prices ot go so high.

This is unbiased news (by me):
"When Sen. Barack Obama 'rejected' and 'denounced' the support of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan during the MSNBC debate last week, it wasn't his finest hour.
Fortunately for Obama, most black people understand the game.
Obama should have found a way to escape Russert's trap without denigrating Farrakhan's legacy.
But, like I said, we understand." (BY MARY MITCHELL Sun-Times Columnist)
Why Obama 'denounced' Farrakhan :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Mary Mitchell
This is exactly how Keith Olbermann would present that news, if he was on Fox:
Most black people are bad and believe Obama is a liar, which is why Mary Mitchell still has a job.
