7. That 60 Minutes story has had me pissed off all day!
The people of E. Guinea are starving and poor, and their leader and his son are being wined and dined by oil company execs. in Washington. And the oil companies RIPPED THEM OFF in paying for a LOT OF OIL that's located just offshore in E. Guinea.

They should be paid a lot more, and it should be going to help the lot of the people, not for the son of the president to buy 20 expensive suits on a shopping spree in Paris.

We MUST get a president in office who is not owned by/inextricably linked to the oil companies. They run the world; their power must be reined in.

"Iraq is free; let freedom reign"? Are you kidding me with this, Dubya? You should have said, "Iraq is free; Let the Oil Companies Reign!"
