Obviously that oil from Iraq gig worked out great! 

Or maybe that doesn't have anything to do with the war in the middle east?  Hmmm....

Some might have thought twice before rushing into war with Iraq, thinking that rising oil prices would only serve as a Tax on Americans designed to benefit the Saudis & Russians.  Rather a strategically retarded move.

This administration, (Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld all had big oil backgrounds) plainly looked at the prospect of higher oil prices and thought, "Oh, a win/win!"
