Well, Carter and Clinton were doing it for the children. Bush was doing it for Dick Cheney's Halliburton. /sarcasm

Bin Sultan said President Carter also made a request for lower oil prices to save his reelection bid in 1979, explaining that he did so "to avoid the [US's economic] malaise."

lol......a little late for that Jimmah, don't you think? Stagflation, anyone?

"If, as Bob Woodward reports, it is true that gas supplies and prices in America are tied to the American election, tied to a secret White House deal, that is outrageous and unacceptable," Kerry complained in Florida.

Now wasn't it Kerry who just a while back was saying that we should be putting "pressure" on OPEC to reduce the price of oil?

Kind of cute how the Saudis just admit to doing this stuff. That kind of honesty you can only get from a "Prince."

This had to have been said last night because E.D. Hill on Fox this morning was talking about this Prince Bandar statement.

And Clintoon also released millions of barrels of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve - at the expense of national security, mind you - about a month before the election just to drive oil prices down.

Yes but he was talking out the left side of his face then & yesterday he was using the right. You can tell the difference because the left side of his face is orange-brown color and the right side is more orangeish-red hue.

This was said last night on "Is Larry King Alive" - Woodward and King were bashing Bandar so he called in & said "hey, there's nothing surprising here, the US wants to pay lower oil prices and wants a good economy and Saudi Arabia only does well when the US economy is good, so it's no surprise US presidents ask for lower oil prices, which Bush - and Clinton - both did"

The only reason liberals want lower oil prices is so they can jack them up again with taxes at the pump. After they get elected, of course.
