T. Boone Pickens is a guy who usually gets what he wants one way or another. So the Iraqis should take note that the most recent part of TBP's plan to get the country off foreign oil calls for demands them to provide the US with access to their stash of black gold.
"We should not leave Iraq without a call on the Iraqi oil.... I don't see how the Iraqis could turn us down, I just don't."
And if they do turn us down....TBP has a plan for that as well.

Greggums,
While cleaning your room today, I found quite a few used tissues under your bed. Do you have a runny nose? Also, it appears you've run out of moisturerizer again. I know how worried you get about dry skin. I'll pick you up some more.
Love,
Mommy

"What will it take to get our troops out of Iraq? The roughly 70 percent of Americans who are firmly against the war often ask this question. Those in power are reluctant to give conditions, but when they do and those conditions are met, the goal post is quietly moved."
