Kucinich Exposes Power Grab By The Administration And Oil Barons

[Psychoblues]

Washington, May 23 - WASHINGTON, D.C. — Congressman Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) will invoke a rarely used House procedure today to discuss the privatization of Iraqi oil on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives.

Kucinich plans to invoke a point of personal privilege under House Rule IX to respond to published remarks regarding efforts he has made to inform the House Democratic Caucus of the details of the Iraqi Hydrocarbon Act.

Kucinich will have one hour of time on the House floor in which he plans to explain why Congress’ insistence on benchmarks in the supplemental, which includes passage of the Iraqi hydrocarbon act, demands that Iraqis privatize their oil.

To watch Congressman Kucinich's speech live, visit C-SPAN's website.


Excerpts from the speech are below:

"The Administration set several benchmarks for the Iraqi government, including passage of the “Hydrocarbon Law” by the Iraqi Parliament."

"The fact is that except for three scant lines, the entire 33 page “Hydrocarbon Law,” is about creating a complex legal structure to facilitate the privatization of Iraqi oil."

"And many inside the beltway are contemplating linking funding for the war in Iraq to the completion of these benchmarks, including passage of the “Hydrocarbon Law” by the Iraqi Parliament."

"The war in Iraq is a stain on American history. Let us not further besmirch our nation by participating in the outrageous exploitation of a nation which is in shambles due to U.S. intervention."

Thanks Psychoblues for this report.

If it proves true I become an enemy of both parties.

Enough is enough.

[Psychoblues]

You insinuate that you adhere to 3rd Party politics. Have fun and get lost.

That's one of the better written accusations that the war was ALL about oil that I've seen. :clap: :clap:

I do understand it. The only hope is increasingly vested in some kind of revolutionary upheaval.

I am willing to hear your POV, and i realize that this budget is almost a certain defeat but this is treasonous on the part of both parties.

My support is on it's last leg.

What is your case?

(I will add for the lurkers that the US dollar petro currency status supported by controlling ME oil is the singular foundation of globalization.

Without that petro currency dominance, globalization dies in 3-4 years)

ALL ABOUT OIL ? Nice try. I mean it really is a pretty good try by Kucinich If he would go into such great detail about our OTHER reasons for being there I would be impressed. How can you possibly invade an oil rich country and have it NOT be about oil ?

Help get us out of there and quit whining.
