Bush admits on Limbaugh that Iraq was about the price of oil. Desperation.
He so desperate at this point, he's even willing to admit the real reason, not all the fake reasons, for occupying Iraq: Saddam Hussein was manipulating the price of oil.


"We were screaming in the streets: no blood for oil, which, of course, you know, most Americans consider a bargain – blood for oil, as long as it’s not their blood, right? But in fact, it wasn’t blood for oil. It was blood for no oil. It was blood to make sure that not too much oil would flow and bust the market. Oil had been down under Bill Clinton to eighteen bucks a barrel. Now it’s over $70 a barrel." -- Greg Palast: Armed Madhouse

Greg Palast had outlined this entire issue in his book Armed Madhouse. So, how will US military families take the news that their sons and daughters died to level the oil market?

This tells you how desperate * is. He's terrified, and he's willing to finally tell the truth.

This is a chimp with nothing to lose.

The house is ours.

6. One might consider it an impeachable offense....
Since we have him on tape confessing to his motive and methods.

5. if he's not a sociopath
then how does he justify this to himself. How do you say stabilize or increase the economy (which this doesn't) I will massacre a country and send it into a civil war.
