Uhhhhhh... Bush never asked/made Iraq pay reparations to us. In fact some of the bleeding heart liberals think we should make Reparations to the Iraqi people for the invasion. Iraq had to pay reparations to Kuwait after we drove out Saddam's forces in the first Gulf War. Iraq had to pay Kuwait 5% of it's oil profits, but never did pay the full amount demanded (little over 50bil).


Besides, we have plenty of oil here... We just have to drill for it. Hell, we found 60 Billion barrels 80 miles off Louisiana's coast 3-4 years ago. To put that in perspective, that is three times what is in ANWAR. But while you are on this quest for knowledge, look up ANWAR and see what that land was originally set aside for.


That's right... Drilling.
