He took his minute the other day on the floor and was asking for an investigation into it.

We need more candidates standing up and giving it to the administration like this. I know Clinton said she wasnt afraid to take on the republicans so it would be nice to at least see her making some statements like this with some bite.

Dennis Kucinich:

“The Administration has misled Congress and the media into thinking that pending Iraqi oil legislation before Iraq’s Parliament was about the fair distribution of oil revenues,” Kucinich said. “But the Hunt Oil deal with Kurdistan should expose the real intent of that legislation, and that is, promoting a privatization scheme.

“It is hard to imagine that in Iraq there is any matter more controversial than oil. So long as the U.S. occupies Iraq, there can be nothing more damaging to the United States’ world reputation than the awarding of oil agreements to Bush Administration cronies.”
