I don't think that very many Americans realize that Alabama's own Condi, while not married, has been "in bed" with Big Oil for practically her entire career. Before I "tapped" her to be National Security Advisor in January 2001, she headed Chevron's committee on public policy where she lobbied tirelessly to have a big oil pipeline constructed through several countries in the Middle East. Like myself, she is a card-carrying member of the Politicians for Big Oil club.

VERY interesting slant to this post, lol
Actually the US has admitted it was aware that Saddam was selling oil for bribes out side the "Oil for Food Program." The US also had officals sitting on the UN oversite board. So the idea that the scandal happened under a corrupt and incompetent UN and Koffi Anna was just a disinformation story to deflect from the crimes and deaths of the sanctions.

Jeff Ballinger Bio

As chairman of the "Public Policy Committee," she should have been tuned in to the open secret of kickbacks being paid to Saddam starting in June 2000 (everyone in the industry knew, according to investigators quoted in this morning's International Herald Tribune).

While she left the board to head the National Security Council seven months later, there was plenty of time to keep Chevron from buying millions of barrels of crude from Iraq and sending around $20 million to Saddam's private accounts and "pet projects" like aiding Russian whacko bigot, Vladimir Zhirinovsky.

"Chevron will pay around $25 million to settle the charges - an amount the company will recoup hundreds of times over if the Iraq oil law goes forward with Production Sharing Agreements in the legislation."
