drisley, what makes me nervous is that the Bush administration has said that they plan to put an American in control of Iraq for a minimum of 2 years. That sounds like a slippery slope to colonization to me. I support getting Saddam out of there....but not for us to take over the country.

Now I heard on the news last night that Halliburton was awarded the contract on the oil business in Iraq after the war has ended. Halliburton's former CEO was Dick Cheney...who I'm sure still owns a lot of stock in them.

I support the war but how far are we going to go after the war in ruling this country.
