All I can say, is how much is too much for the wealthy who rape the land for a few dollars. They act like they can take their wealth with them when they die. It is a truly sad time that we live in.

i feel sick to the bone everytime that mans name is mentioned. not only is he destroying the lovely ordinary lives of iraq people, but he is screwing nature by devastating the environment, not signing any policies to help reduce green house emmisions etc
