I can't believe that oil corporations prompted this war, but I do think that the protestors are responding to the adminstration's early insistence on drilling for oil in the Artic Wildlife Preserve. War and drilling are two very different things, but the bull headedness this administration has shown for that drilling, and the secrecy with which they've made their energy policies, have left people suspicious. The "no blood for oil" protestors are wrong, but I think that politics of the Bush administration are to blame for thier misconceptions.

Eu'seems to lurk until he sees politics'gene
