Randi Rhodes played clip of Chris Matthews busting Bushies about Iraq OIL
I think it was Dan Bartlett, and Matthews said the Bushies promised Iraq War would result in cheaper oil.

If media starts talking about the oil connection to Iraq War, that's game over for Bush, and the end of his hopes for invading Iran since Greg Palast found documentation that the goal wasn't to drive down the price but to prop it up.

This war wasn't even fought for our economy but simply for the oil companies.

1. This may be their Achilles heel -- AT LAST
We've tried to pin other scandals to this mofo but nothing has worked. $3+ gas prices may FINALLY accomplish what we've been trying to for the past 5 years -- yank the last of his thin support out from beneath him and peel the scales from people's eyes.

2. this one has the advantage of being the root of all the others
he is doing the oil companies bidding solely for their benefit. If people even hear it said out loud, it will click.
