We have a disagreement in our household. wildernessguru thinks it's just unbridled greed and the US need to dominate the oil supplies. I think we're running out, or at least the US oil industry is running out.
Both make sense when you realize that both Cheney and Bush get their money from the oil industry. Given Cheney's former buddy-buddy relationship with Kenneth Lay of Enron (writing our energy policy to Enron's benefit), and Halliburton's proved corruption in Iraq (yet they still have their Iran contracts in place), yes, Cheney at least is corrupt enough to destroy the US military for his own interests.
