Iran drops dollar from oil deals
Bush and his co-conspirators in Congress have done what no other group have been able to do. They have managed to destroy America's credit so badly that people don't even want to take our money. "Sound as a dollar" gives way to "worthless as a Bush".

Iran drops dollar from oil deals

Major crude producer Iran has completely stopped carrying out its oil transactions in dollars, Oil Minister Gholam Hossein Nozari said on Saturday, labelling the greenback an "unreliable" currency.

"At the moment selling oil in dollars has been completely halted, in line with the policy of selling crude in non-dollar currencies," Nozari was quoted as saying by the ISNA news agency.

"The dollar is an unreliable currency, considering its devaluation and the oil exporters' losses," he added.
