It was never about helping the average citizen, of any country, profit from the Iraq war or even pay for the Iraq war so Joe blow did not have to. Nope, they are just a bunch of lying assholes divvying up the money from oil our troops fought for, and some died for, as their blood spilled on to the oil tainted ground of Iraq.

Correct. "We, the people" didn't get anything for it but the opportunity to send our kids to do their dirty work for them and the pride in knowing they did a good job of it.....well, the ones that survived, anyhow.

I take that back. We did get something for it; We got stuck with the bill. You know, the one that tanked our economy and cost so many of us our jobs. And now, we're called the 47% and told we have to give up "entitlements" so the GOP can handout fat tax cuts to the same people.

Sweet deal, if you can get it that way.....Americas elite have truly been blessed, haven't they?
