Hi All, The Bush tour is all theatrics. The Saudis and the Bushes both benefit from the high price of oil which is the result of supply restriction in Iraq and the threat to the Iranian oil fields, not to mention Nigeria and other "touble spots," better said "profit centers." I'm sure Steven's remark was meant to be taken humorously. The real beef that the Oil Gang has with the Russians is that they are selling into the world oil glut as fast as they can pump it out of the ground. On a serious note, 12 years to the Kazakh War of 2020 unless we get off oil. Now is the time for biodiesel, methanol, commuter rail, nuclear, etc. So far, it looks like the joke is on us because none of the major presidential candidates has advocated getting off oil.
