Goodbye and Good Luck - by Charley Reese

[Excerpt] "The American people have been conned into accepting the idea of an empire, when there is no need for one. Wherever there is oil, it will be available for sale because it is otherwise worthless, and why should we care from whom we buy it? Some of the worst people in the world are sitting on big oil reserves, and you know what? Their oil burns just as well as anybody else's.
The imperialists have created the illusion that we are in control of the world and if we weren't, everything would fall apart. That's not true. First of all, we are not in control of the world. Secondly, we are not the world's only remaining superpower. We could not whip China or Russia in an all-out war – probably not even Iran." [Excerpt ends.] Goodbye and Good Luck
