Iraq oil was supposed to pay for the war

Enough with supposed cures for high gas prices. Offshore drilling? Go way offshore, all the way to Iraq.

Remember when Bush administration officials were saying Iraqi oil was going to pay for the war to liberate the Iraqi people? The thought then was that we wouldn’t be spending a cent on the war.

Well, where’s all that oil and where’s all the money taken from our taxes to pay for the “liberation”?
