About Opec's statement and Bush clarification
I thought about this for a moment. Opec is warning America. Let that sink in for a moment.
If peak oil has occured as some have indicated - why would it matter to Opec if America evolved to become more energy independent? We have been told that they are pumping as fast and hard as they can - and that there are fewer and fewer major oil finds globally.
But China has a huge appetite as does Europe....it is an overdemand coupled with Katrina and middle eastern instability that has caused oil prices to go through the roof.

Something reeks here. We are being manipulated. And your proud strong texan folded pretty darned fast didn't he? That speaks volumes to me. The whole war on terror - all of it - has been one big manipulation. Opec revealed too much when they issued this statement.

1. Can you say DeBeers and diamonds?
Its a wonder how everyone blindly trusts the oil companies numbers on how scarce and rare oil is. BTW whats not mentioned in new oil finds is the fact that the oil companies haven't been pushing for new oil finds since the 1980's. Reeks insn't the word here, its got you again suckers.
