Re: Dick Cheney, Ahmed Chalabi Contemplated Value Of Iraqi Oil To U.S., David Frum Wr
You just completely ignore that oil is bought and sold on the world market. Unless you plan to socialize US oil companies as the Socialists want to do, all new oil produced here goes into the world market, and 60% of the worlds affordable is in the middle east, unless you factor in the wars to keep it flowing.
You are the one saying oil is more important to human life when you refuse to let us drill in places like Anwr, off the coast of Calif, Florida etc not to mention your anti fracking stance. Your position is war not wells. As for our use of oil you can only get the 25% number by factoring in countries so poor they can't own cars or even feed themselves, is that what you want for us?
