Reply #13: Jay Garner wanted quick elections, Bush didn't so he could do the oil scams [View All]

Essentially Bush has forced privatization on them, dictated how oil would be dealt with in the constitution, cancelled Saddam's contracts with foreign companies and given them to Americans.

Garner wanted elections in 90 days, but the Bushies knew no legitimate government would allow the wholesale theft of their natural resources. As Grover Norquist, GOP strategist and author of part of the privatization plan said:

"The right to trade, property rights, these things are not to be determined by some democratic election."

Bush didn't allow elections until Iraqis filled the streets and demanded them.


Ironically, to the degree that the elections over there were legit, Bush CAN'T pullout because he's afraid his oil cronies will get the boot. That's why he wanted to install Chalabi and then Allawi, but the Iraqis wouldn't put up with either of them.

Now Bush is likely monkey who tried to grab a nut in a coke bottle. Once he got ahold of it, he can't get his paw out with it, but he won't let go either. He'll just shake the bottle until he starves to death.
