[World oil prices fell further on Friday, with New York's main contract plunging to the lowest point in almost four months, owing to mild temperatures in the United States...]



Okay, follow me on this.

George Bush gets a call from his oil buddies.

They say "the heat is on us in the Senate because we're making such obscene profits from the price of gasoline being so high."

Bush is told to do something to give Big Oil cover to "temporarily" lower its prices so Americans can forget about how Big Oil is screwing them.

Bush calls Karl Rove who promises to take care of it.

Rove flies down to his secret cave in Antarctica in an SR-71 and fires up the weather machine giving us a temporary warm spell here in the U.S. for a few days.

The world oil markets see all the evidence for global warming and "Voila!" the price of oil falls.

Americans go back to watching "Survivor" and forget all about the price of oil for awhile, paving the way for Big Oil to jack up the price of gasoline again in the middle of winter so they can make more obscene profits.

When will we wake up?

You might want to add a copper lining to that tinfoil hat.

The MARKET dictates supply, demand and prices.

Please tell us you don't really believe your post.
