Steve Pizzo's 'Investigate Big Dick' article
Investigate Big Dick
http://www.alternet.org/story/35754/

says this...

""So, did Cheney and oil company executives lick their chops over Iraqi oil less than two years before we attacked over non-existent WMD? When the administration brushed off questions about Cheney's meetings by telling us they concerned "securing America's energy future," was this the plan they cooked up? To overthrow Saddam, set up a puppet government and pump, pump, pump? If so, that plan has gone terribly wrong.

So, shouldn't Congress find out? If not now, when?""

Someone should tell Pizzo that Iraq (or something similar) was on Cheney's AND the DoD's radar screens since the Nixon years, 1973 at least:

Britain Says US Planned to Seize Oil in '73 Crisis

and the movie Three Days of The Condor was based upon this scenario 'fictionally' only to resurface as fact in Jan. 2004 ! The NYTimes, it should be noted, didn't print what Redford's character came up with. Judy Miller and guys like Bob Woodward saw to the surpression of the story.
