Did Bush manipulate Iraq data?

[Chaerophon]

Occhidiangela's excellent post about the reasons why oil could not be a factor should be reviewed.

As much as his post was well written and I respect his knowledge of the political realm, I think that it would, indeed, be helpful to read his post as several objections were raised to his treatise that, at the time, he dismissed, but now seem infinitely more accurate given the current situation in Iraq.
