For some reason #'s 1-14 are dismissed and ignored by people who point to oil as being the primary reason for our invasion. Why do they sift through these facts and settle on oil as the main reason? The answer is clear. It is the one fact that makes the US look like the bad guy and the immoral super power acting on behalf of her own greed and gluttony. The people who choose oil out of this list are people who have a predetermination that the United States is the big, immoral world bully. They purposely ignore the facts to fit their world view. They have an immediate knee jerk reaction to view the United States as the bad guy. They are liberal democrats who feel guilty about their place in the world and it makes them feel more noble to point their finger at their own country and call it the bad guy. These are the same people who driven by their own guilt believe that it should be the government's responsibility to redistribute wealth as it sees fit. They are the same people who believe we are helping the black community by providing them with government entitlements. They are the same people who believe that the word "fair" is somewhere written in the Constitution. They are the same people who believe each person (not necessarily US citizens) are entitled to "free" healhcare. They are the same people who believe the government is not spending enough money on education, welfare and other social taxpayer funded programs. They are the same people that believe we are not giving enough money to corrupt African dictators to cure their populations of AIDS. They are the same people who point at Abu Graib prison photos and yell for impeachment. They are the same people who are more concerned about collateral damage and civilian casualties in Iraq then they are about the safety of American soldiers. They are the same poeple who have an inability to admit that the religion of Islam has any connection to terrorism what so ever. They are the same people who are more concerned about whether or not other countries around the world like us then they are about taking the necessary action that fits our best interest. They are the same people who are more concerned about who might be offended by something rather then what is right and what is wrong.
