i would have guessed venezuela as number 3.

Re: Who do you think imports the most oil to the U.S.
I was discussing this with a colleague last week at a meeting. He's based in Canada. Jokingly, I told him that it will be sad to invade his country; though, it won't just be about oil... We agreed the cheaper Molson and bacon are worth a tomahawk or two as well.

Re: Who do you think imports the most oil to the U.S.
Heh, I didn't vote because I knew it.
That is one reason I just SCREAM at the TV NO ASSHOLE we are being held hostage by a government that has debased the US dollar to the point oil now costs $125 a barrel MORON when I hear them saying we are being held hostage by the middle east. The lies they throw out to cover their own asses are just mind boggling.

Look how far down the list Iraq is, yet you'll hear so many saying that the war there is about oil..........

Re: Who do you think imports the most oil to the U.S.
Well I hate to burst your bubble there BUT Iraq has THE 4th largest oil reserves in the world today .. just because we don't import it doesn't mean it isn't there.
Oil reserves by country: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_reserves
It just so happens Iraq's oil exploration, drilling and exporting has been 'controlled' by an agreement from the early 1900s that kept their production low compared to their reserves. Oil companies have been 'licking their chops' to get at Iraq's reserves for many many years now since Saddam nationalized them way back when.
Next one on the list? Venezuela ... Chavez just chucked out almost all the oil companies last year just like Saddam did .... give it time and that will be the next "invasion"

"The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of 'liberalism,' they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened."
- Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948
