He has a knack for turning straw into sh*t. One thing _sure_ to cause oil
prices to go up is turmoil in the Middle East. Now we have an
(incompitant) oil guy in the White House, a quagmire in the Middle East
and high oil prices. Surprise, surprise.
I'd like to walk through this slowly, because I would like to see where
we start to diverge.
We've been over this and we know where we diverge. The fact that the
energy companies are paying huge sums to California and that their
officials are being indicted and imprisoned would indicate to me that
whatever supply problems we had, they were ramped up precipitously by
these companie's abuses. Not to mention the assist they recieved from
Cheney and the Bush administration, recipients of very generous campaign
contributions from these same companies.
So you keep on believing that the crisis was primarily due to a shortage.
I'll keep on cheering as these scumbuckets are marched off to jail. It
would be _so sweet_ if they take Cheney and Bush down with them. To bad
we can't sent _them_ to Gitmo.
