Do you comprehend English? The fact of the matter is that power exceeds pre-war levels both in production and consumption those are the undisputable facts sir, if I wanted your OPINION or that of an Iraqi's I would have asked for one. You cite no figures or facts to back up your claim, you're right this is getting ridiculous.
| I would think that an Iraqi living in Iraq would be a better source than some Washington think-tank that receives government funding for its survival. If Iraqis say there is an electrical shortage, how can you say they don't know what there talking about in their own country.
You're getting pretty arrogant.

| Ten years of sanctions will do that to a country.
I make it a point not to trash someones sources. So, I'm not saying the assertions from your Washington cabal is bull****, I'm saying that I trust people who live in the area more than I do a foreign organization 9,000 miles away funded by an Administration that has a track history of seeding "fake news releases" and allegedly murdering dissenting journalists. |

Did he do a survey into electrical production and consumption? As for your assertion that Bush is mudering journalists, come on Billo give me a ****ing break. |

| You can't deny that a whole lot of them are getting killed. And al jazeerah got bombed AFTER giving their GPS coordinates to our military just to prevent what happened anyway.
My sources are not any less credible than yours.
If you wanted to know the weather in Huntington Beach right now, would you ask teacher or me? I can't believe that if you wanted to know the weather in Florida, you'd ask me, according to your logic.
Oh, I forgot, you like that moron Fred Barnes and that wrinkled prune he hangs with. |
