http://www.moderateindependent.com/v1i18hwbush.htmIn reality, we see clearly that the reason no one foresaw the crisis and that nobody "in power started talking about an energy problem" until mid-2000 was because there was none to talk about. In fact, at no point was there ever an energy problem. As would be the situation in California the following summer, lack of energy had nothing to do with the problems that occurred. The only thing that was at fault were people conspiring to create a seeming crisis so as to drive prices through the roof.
As Enron did a year later, Bush's Gulf War allies and US oil company friends conspired to create a crisis that no one could have foreseen, that helped to shape - and very possibly decide - a presidential election, and gave countless wealth to those who participated. And the campaign of George W. Bush took advantage of it at every turn, casting blame on those who had no part in the problem, and presenting themselves as heroes who would save America from the crisis their friends and allies had drummed up in the first place.
This was manipulation of markets and elections at its worst. And while the rest of the media has given the Bushes a free pass on it, we at The Moderate Independent are now here to report the actual news, comprehensively and in its full context. This should be the biggest story of the millennium so far. Now we are putting it out there so it may be.
And the $600 tax rebate being printed as we speak will go directly to the oil crooks.
At least the war on the middle class is going well.
