Keith Olbermann slams John Mccain - BLOOD for OIL (Iraq war)

McCain decided to toss in a plug for his upcoming energy policy rollout. But in the midst of decrying the dangers of Americans reliance on foreign oil, McCain seemed to suggest that this reliance caused the current struggle in Iraq. "My friends, I will have an energy policy that we will be talking about, which will eliminate our dependence on oil from the Middle East that will -- that will then prevent us -- that will prevent us from having ever to send our young men and women into conflict again in the Middle East," McCain said.

Why on earth are still these Reps having millions of followers? There must be something very wrong with the people here and it is not oil. By now it Obama should be like 80% or higher in the polls. This is one sick country and sicker than the financial disaster brough by Bush/McCain & friends. America #1? Laughable yet brings one to tears.

John McCain is no better than that other idiot currently in the White House.

@ttiiyy FUCK YOU, YOU CUNT. America went in iraq for oil, not for protecting muslims. America has killed hundreds os thousands of muslim civilians, why the fuck should they be thankful? the only ungrateful dogs are american soldiers and republicans

Rachel Maddow is beautiful.

Its funny how Keith now thinks it ok that Iraqi oil should pay for the war.

[ttiiyy]

Seeing American soldiers losing their lives for those Muslims in Iraq just makes me sick! These Muslims do not even want our soldiers there! Are republican voters finally satisfied now? Seriously, are you white trash satisfied now?

It should also be noted that some fucking Muslims in the US seem to want our army to get rid of the insurgents for them for free. The oil is the only compensation that can make up the sacrifices that this country has made. These ungrateful dogs are disgusting!

Iraq War = total lie and total disaster.

have you seen who killed the electric car? we could switch to electric then nuclear & natural sources but the car companies & oil corporations are intertwined

oil runs the nation. without oil we would all be unemployed, defenseless, and hungry. so next time, instead of saying "no blood for oil" try "no blood for national stability".

ya, price at the pump has more to do with the companies rather than the price of the crude

Well, at least someone was being honest.
