Isn't $66/barrel just what Bush & his oil buddies have been hoping for?
Is this obscene rise in oil and gasoline prices all part of Bush/Cheney's master plot when they started the war....or is the rise in prices something that was just inevitable, war or no war?

Hey, if you're in the oil business and your product just when up astronomically in price, well, isn't that your goal...especially if your as greedy and callous as oil people are?

Life couldn't be better for the oil barrens now, could it?

Thank you, George!!

2. Naw, they are holding out for a $100!
And they are well on their way to the promised (literally, what do you think they were talking about in the secret energy meetings with Cheney?) land.
