Your second video (which was the first one I watched... if I watch any more I will be here all night!) has a big error. No one in the Bush administration ever said there was a connection between Iraq and 9/11? Edwards is just plain wrong.
And another thing... can you name one company that can do what Halliburton does Kimba? Johnson used them to help rebuild parts of Vietnam to get the economy stirring over there. Kimba, can you name one company that can rebuild a countries entire infrastructure like Halliburton? There is a French company that can do quite a bit... but nothing on the scale and expertise of Halliburton.
Yes, Al Qaeda and Saddam's people met. The following is an old article; I have the photo of the actual document if you wish:
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Among the pre-war documents posted online yesterday by the Pentagon is a letter from a member of Saddam's intelligence apparatus indicating al-Qaida and the Taliban had a relationship with the regime prior to the 9-11 attacks.
The letter by the member of Saddam's Al Mukabarat to a superior, dated Sept. 15, 2001, reports a pre-9/11 conversation between an Iraqi intelligence source and a Taliban Afghani consul.
The documents were released yesterday at the direction of National Intelligence Director John Negroponte.
Among the first batch of the thousands expected to be declassified over the next several months, the Al Mukabarat document was translated from the original Arabic by a contributor to the online forum Free Republic.
Laura Mansfield, an independent Middle East analyst, examined the translation for WorldNetDaily and said it appears to be accurate.
The letter indicated Osama bin Laden and the Taliban in Afghanistan were in contact with Iraq – noting a specific visit to Baghdad – and said the U.S. had proof Saddam's regime and al-Qaida were cooperating to hit a target in the U.S.
The document said the U.S. was aware of such a relationship and could strike Iraq and Afghanistan if the attacks proved to be tied to bin Laden and the Taliban.
The translated text is as follows:
In the Name of God the Merciful
Presidency of the Republic
Intelligence Apparatus
To the respectful Mr. M.A.M
Subject: Information
Our source in Afghanistan No 11002 (for information about him see attachment 1) provided us with information that that Afghani Consul Ahmad Dahestani (for information about him see attachment 2) told him the following:
1. That Osama bin Laden and the Taliban in Afghanistan are in contact with Iraq and it that previously a group from Taliban and Osama Bin Laden group visited Iraq.
2. That America has proof that the government of Iraq and Osama bin Laden group have shown cooperation to hit target within America.
3. That in case it is proven the involvement of Osama bin Laden group and the Taliban in these destructive operations it is possible that American will conduct strikes in Iraq and Afghanistan.
4. That the Afghani Consul heard about the subject of Iraq relation with Osama Bin Laden group during his stay in Iran.
5. In light of this we suggest to write to the Commission of the above information.
Please view… Yours… With regards
Signature:……, Initials : A.M.M, 15/9/2001
Foot note: Immediately send to the Chairman of Commission

Zarqawi a pre-war presence? Another example comes from Michael Medved, who said this:
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
There is no connection between Islamic terrorists and the Saddam Hussein regime.
This statement represents one of the few examples of anti-war activists disagreeing with the official line of the Iraqi government. That line emphasizes the proud support of the heroic and revolutionary Iraqi people for Islamic fighters everywhere, including the holy warriors of al-Qaida. Meanwhile, the al-Qaida crew similarly expresses its solidarity with Saddam – as they did in their Internet statement (widely validated by intelligence agencies in the West) claiming credit for the recent Kenya attacks, and linking future assaults to potential war against their friends, the Iraqis. If Iraq expresses solidarity with al-Qaida, and al-Qaida expresses solidarity with Iraq, peaceniks face a difficult challenge in arguing that they represent utterly disconnected phenomena.

Oooops…. Silky Pony and Kimba got it wrong. Too bad, so sad.
You've caused me to blog!! I refuse to watch those other videos... but by refuting this one (your second one) video of Silky Pony talking Halliburton, you should consider your other selections and, well, fodder from the Left!

Halliburton bought Brown and Root, thus eliminating the competition...who do they think they are, Whole Foods?
Seriously, Halliburton has overcharged us on food, fuel, and who knows what else.
As to all of the videos, they aren't THAT long....I play them everynight just before I go to bed. Wanna know what they make me dream about? Hillary 08!!!!!
Silly Boy, Tricks Are for Kids.
