#3 Tip of the iceberg, I bet. Of, course, they'll deny everything. Let 'em. Then trot out the docs to the newsies. Sweet.

#6 "First, I was never interested in oil.

I don't doubt that. It couldn't have been the money, could it?

#8 All this denial reminds me of a scene in one of the greatest movies of all time:

"I am shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here!"

"Excuse me, monsieur, your winnings."

"Oh, thank you."

#9 mike, LOL!

"All my deals were done with the approval of Saddam and the United Nations"

well, well...that's certainly easy enough to believe - but hardly a denial of the crime as charged.

#10 Also heard on Fox today, from spokesman for one of the GA, that the list included the UN head of the Oil for Iraq -- guy from Brazil!
