Oil? Did someone say oil?

Bob and Claire Gadbois sent this message in response to my father’s latest complaint about our one-track President Bush and his fueling up for a fight:

Joe: You seem to be a little confused why we must go to war against Iraq. Here, to set the matter straight, is the reason why:

We SHELL not EXXONerate Saddam Hussein for his actions. We will MOBILize to meet his threat to the vital interests in the Persian GULF until an AMOCOble solution is reached. Our best strategy is to BPrepared. Failing that we ARCOming to defend our neighbors.

I hope this clears things up for you.
