heating oil for their homes, when the Bush*/Cheney junta refused to do anything.

He was also classless enough to offer Bush/Cheney a 20 year contract to supply the US with his oil for $50/barrel, and Bush/Cheney turned him down! Now why, praytell, would they turn him down?? Could it be because Halliburton wouldn't be able to get all those multi-billion dollar no-bid contracts in Iraq and Afghanistan, and their other cronies couldn't fill their pockets and bank accounts from their war profiteering in the Military Industrial Complex??

Bush, Cheney and most of their top level cabinet heads should have already had their day at the Hague...

Hugo's words were spot on!

Peace,

Ghost
