U.S. President George Bush Wednesday said he has suggested Iraq's government create a trust for oil revenues to be distributed to the populace.

Just hours after returning from a surprise visit to Baghdad, the president told a White House news conference he and Iraqi leaders spent a good deal of time discussing the country's oil resource and how to manage it.

Bush, a former oil man, said he suggested a fund like the one set up in Alaska to protect oil revenues and reminded Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki the nation's oil belongs to the people, and the government must be a good steward.

LOL!!! :rofl: Like the US has been a Good Steward for the past 5 years...

when all they had was a 5 minute notice that Bush was going to be there.

... that's far more than his attention span so it's not too challenging!

So we have the new Iraqi prime minister and we just show up and say oh, let's meet, cancel
your appointments with the Sunnis, I am way more important. Thanks.

"Cancel your appointments, a quick photo-op is way more important
than anything you could possibly do."

Now, how could we ever have guessed that Bush would talk about oil? Bush will find some slimy way to remove the oil from the people. Did anyone really think that after all the trouble he has gone to that he would just give up the oil to the people of Iraq. He wants it for himself and his rich friends.
