Obama Traded Terrorist for BP Oil Rights

Remember all those liberals protesting the Iraq war because they swore the US was invading strictly because they had oil? their favorite chant was “No blood for oil!” Bush didn’t invade for oil rights, otherwise we’d be able to fill our SUV’s for 5 bucks. But Obama worked closely with the Scottish administration to free the Lockerbie terrorist Abdel Baset al-Megrahi so BP could gain Libyan oil rights in the Libyan seas.

You remember BP right, the same bastards who have dumped all that oil in the Gulf? From the Australian here:

THE US government secretly advised Scottish ministers it would be “far preferable” to free the Lockerbie bomber than jail him in Libya.

The Obama administration considered compassionate release more palatable than locking up Abdel Baset al-Megrahi in a Libyan prison.

The US wanted Megrahi to remain imprisoned in view of the nature of the crime. Megrahi’s doctors thought he could live for another decade.

The note added: “Nevertheless, if Scottish authorities come to the conclusion that Megrahi must be released from Scottish custody, the US position is that conditional release on compassionate grounds would be a far preferable alternative to prisoner transfer, which we strongly oppose.”

It should be noted that with Tony Hayward quitting, Obama will be left holding the Gulf Spill bag. So you libs out there, this is how you trade blood for oil. Blood from Americans and Europeans slain in the air in a terrorist act, and oil that coats the wildlife and fisheries of the gulf. BP is Obama’s largest contributor. So how about them chants for no blood for oil? Where are you leftist, peace symbol carrying clowns now?
