I was just listening to NPR and they were talking about Iraq's oil-for-food program. The oil-for-food program was exploited in the most cynical manner by members and clients of the palatial Saddam regime, who used the money to enrich themselves while starving and neglecting the population.

The news reporter was interviewing our "wonderful politicians" to ask them how we can bring honesty and sanity to the new Iraq so that, in the future, the Iraqi people can enjoy the fruits of their labor. I'm thinking, that's like asking the fox to guard the hen house! If you don't believe me, go here or here.

We're all screwed!

Except for the lucky people that work for SAS. Did you see 60 Minutes last night about that really cool company?
