Well just for the sake of being honest, the US gets 55% of its oil domesticaly.[1] 
Followed by 20% Saudi and the rest Venezuela, yadda, yadda.
It's the EU that buys a huge chunk from Iraq. (just look how much they're owed now)
We get about 3-5% from Iraq and have for 10 years. If thier oil is our lifeblood
mind explaining to me why we had the best economy in the history of our country
while not paying a dime to Iraq for one bucket of oil? BTW that 3-5% we got from
Iraq was because of the oil for food program, we didn't 'buy' any. Cause there were
sanctions only a few of us decided to follow.

[1].. It's been a while since I researched this. I can't remember if 'domestically' 
means Mexico and Canada included.(?)
