Quote:common sense dictates that if you can prove something to be true, then it true. The assumption that we are going to war over oil cannot be proven to be true, thus, it is not true until it is proven...It also hasn't been proven true that Saddam has nukes, bio, or chemical weapons. It also hasn't been proven true that bin Laden was directly connected to 911 for that matter. You said earlier something to the effect of, Saddam not cooperating with inspectors essentially proves his guilt. Wouldn't Bush's pandering to the oil industry work the same way, logically?
