Let them eat oil?

An unnamed Texas businessman has been indicted in the U.N. oil for food scandal.

A Texas businessman, along with a Bulgarian and a British citizen, have been indicted in a scheme to pay millions of dollars in kickbacks to Saddam Hussein's regime as part of the United Nations' scandal-ridden oil-for-food program, federal prosecutors said Thursday.

The kickbacks involved funds otherwise intended for humanitarian relief in Iraq

I'm shocked...SHOCKED! A Texas businessman making money off a shady oil deal and screwing the poor while giving money to a corrupt government?! It's unprecedented!

Well, except for everything associated with Tom DeLay, and Halliburton, and Enron, and even George Dubaya himself.
