GM Drops to Number Three
In the rankings of the world's largest corporations, General Motors long ago gave up its spot at the top of the list to Wal-Mart. But in 2003 it slipped another notch to number three, behind the Exxon Mobil Corp. The Fortune Magazine ranking of the largest companies is determined by annual revenues. GM's revenues for 2003, the AP reports, were $195.6 billion, while Wal-Mart topped the list at $258.7 billion and Exxon Mobil, $213.2 billion. Ford took fourth place with $164.5 billion in revenue.

Well, they do not give us what they want, and they do not deserve to be on top.

Violence naked force has settled more issues in history than has any other factor & the contrary opinion
the middle east has been fighting using violence for more Millenia than it's recorded, it's gay it doesn't work. hitler got neither of his goals done, bad example, neurotic homosexuals are bad examples always. . Napoleon used his brain, there were bigger armies with more "naked force". What does work is TO MAKE UP THE WHOLE SHIT.
as for PIG OIL, Exxon gave us dead 18year olds in baghdad, and now are reaping the benefits, funny how gas prices are still up, and they obviously are doing great yet it seems you have to take it and shut up like some beat up woman.

Excal, go screw yourself. Correct application of violence is what wins wars. Brute violence is what stopped Napoleon and Hitler (they were emotional ppl and fought in that manner). Peace protests and the UN did not stop Hitler, violence applied with a rational/bold strategy stopped him.

Dude, give it a rest. If Exxon or anyone else wanted to profit from Iraq, all they would have had to do is make an under the table deal with Saddam like your buddy JOCK and the Frenchies.... :eyes:
