Iraq Policy Social Philosophy/Issues

What Can be Done to Restore Good Policy in Iraq
  • Support PM Maliki and privatize Iraqi oil fields
    Without public pressure from the Bush administration or Congress for an Iraqi Government allocation of national oil reserves of Iraq to the private ownership of all the citizens of Iraq equally in a one-time stock issuance there is little chance that the Iraqi Government officials recalcitrance to support a public policy based on real democracy will be any more likely to be overcome than in the United States. The Exxon Valdez 1989 spill still hasn't finished in the courts, and Iraqi government cliques will seek there own interests to the detriment of the people as assuredly as oil interests in the U.S. administration create implicit conflicts of interests that lead to bad policy formation.

    The Congress at least can investigate the important issue of Senator Clear-Cut Craig's alleged toe tapping in the toilet. The Minnesota police stake-out of the toilet is reassuring to the public for airport security; hopefully Homeland Security is also staking out toilets actively as well. The Senate Ethics committee should discover to what extent foot tapping is ethically permissible in public crapatoriums and redesign toilets such that people cannot crawl under the stall in case coded toe tapping indicates some interest in more than dropping a load.

    Congress should determine exactly why some people spend more than five minutes on the crapper, and how many minutes in excess indicate some sort of perfidy, and if federal excess time on the pot is especially perfidious.

    Senator Craig is known to be an associate of Senator Stevens of Alaska on clear-cutting liberalism. If congress can overcome the challenges of toe-tapping in the toilet it may move on to the larger issue of requesting President Maliki to urge the distribution of Iraqi oil stock ownership in private hands directly by the people of Iraq. Senator Craig’s largest mistake was in not defending his rights as an American, and especially as a Senator…he should have raised hooei if he was innocent and defended his toe tapping in the toilet.

    Administration and Congressional expressions of displeasure with P.M. Maliki are somewhat discouraging since the U.S. Government effectively structured the emergent shape of macro-politics in Iraq to a certain extent following the 2003 war, and the U.S. federal displeasure with Maliki is in a way a perverse recognition of its own incompetence. The administration should instead indicate support for PM Maliki, urge privatization of the oil fields and withdraw half the U.S. military forces in Iraq early next year and reestablish interior lines along Iraq sectarian boundaries with the remainder.
