18. I highly doubt that. There was a press conference at the
National Press Club in January with Reid and Pelosi and they were asked about the draft Iraq Oil.

Reid never answered the question and then talked about alternative energy, it was clear that this was not the 'right' question to ask.

Cspan had the video and it was discussed here, a little, back in January. Not many Dems want to take on this issue.

Here's a recent interview though

Sesktak Warns Iraqi Oil Law Contains ‘Undue Ability Of U.S. Oil Companies To Control Iraqi Profits’
http://thinkprogress.org/2007/08/18/sestak-oil-law

"I mean they are going to get much more, if the draft is correct, of profits than we would under a normal oil sharing agreement, of these oil companies to a country like Saudi Arabia or others. Heaven forbid that at the end of this time, after all this, if we find out that there’s undue advantage given to our oil companies."
