Reply #110: I think the oil COMPANIES are benefitting, they weren't concerned [View All]

about us. Here's how I remember it -- that Cheney had a top-secret "energy" meeting and those attending were, of course, the heads of Big Oil. I heard they had divvied up who got what areas/oil. I'm not sure if things went according to plan, but I've no doubt that the oil companies are profiting in some way.

You remind me, though, that they said the oil revenues would pay for the war (not sure they were calling it a war at the time), so I don't know quite how that fell through the cracks, either.

The horror of what Cheney/Bush wrought on this greedy gamble is too huge to comprehend. In my mind, anyway.
