Not that Chris Shays wants to leave, he was just being candid on why we are over there. It is obvious to most of us in the reality-based community, but in case you didn't know, we are not in Iraq for a black or white religious brawl. It really is all about the money and power.....oh and did I mention oil?
From Crooks and Liars:
On C-Span’s Washington Journal yesterday, Rep. Christopher Shays has a rare Republican moment of non-talking point candor. When asked by a caller why we are still in Iraq, Shays admits it’s because we just can’t let any other country control that oil.
Now that was easy wasn't it? Now for the rest of his clan to fess up to why we are over there, wasting blood and treasure.....well, I'm waiting, very very patiently.
