If there wasn't dependency on foreign oil we wouldn't have sugar-coated our relations with the @#!$ terrorists in the first place and there would have been no 9-11 and no War on Terror. Like Bush said, hindsight alone isn't wisdom, and cutting the funds to the troops is like saying "we sent you over there, but now we've given up and are going to let you all be killed horribly by Zarkawi's men"
