"Unfortunately, We Can't Talk About Oil"

Clarification:

When Alan Greenspan said "the Iraq war is largely about oil” apparently, what he meant to say was no one at the White House told him that. As a matter of fact an unnamed White House official specifically said "Well, unfortunately, we can't talk about oil."

Another Clarification:

To my ex-wife: when my friends told you I was sleeping with your sister, that wasn't it at all.

Not once was actual sleep involved.

Exactly. Greenspan is just trying to spin it now because what he said looks bad, not that it isn't true. The Iraq war IS largely about oil.

Please spread the word to others: "I am saddened that it is politically inconvenient to acknowledge what everyone knows: the Iraq war is largely about oil" - Alan Greenspan
