That's not totally true. Nobody got dibs, the difference is that US oil companies need to make a profit where as the Chinese just want to secure the energy. Iraq isn't giving it away for free. I think Bush and Co made a gross over-estimation to the influence the US could really bring.
Funny, you overthrow the dictator to promote democracy...then you have to deal with the democracy.
