To the contrary, I believe the U.S. military has already done all that has been asked of them. Saddam Hussein is on trial. The threat from alleged weapons of mass destruction programs in Iraq has been neutralized.

It was Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda who attacked the U.S. on September 11, 2001, not Saddam Hussein and Iraq.

The U.S. must renounce any U.S. interest in constructing permanent U.S. military bases in Iraq.

The crude oil market, unlike every other commodity in America, is virtually unregulated.

In crude oil trading, we have seen a 46 percent increase over 1 year in the margins there.

About 75 percent of the crude oil marketed here is sold off the books, and they are doing trades that would be illegal if it was a regulated market, and of course they do not want to regulate it.

There is no free market in oil.
