You hit the nail on the head. What's concerning is that the kind of sanctions they've been talking about with the U.N. wouldn't include freezing their assets, at worst, restricting travel for diplomats.

I'm guessing they're going to turn off the oil spigot against the wishes of OPEC.

As oil hits over 100 bucks a barrel and we are paying over 6 bucks a gal for gas, the screams you will hear will be those of the Democrat Party (among others) saying ... "War for oil"!


We're gonna have a good time then.

Bingo! And thanks to our wonderful congress ANWR is still at least 3 years from the first drop coming to America. Democrats and RINOS the cause of an oil shortage in America!

We have spigots too.

foreign aid
food
communications
Internet
etc.

If we start turning off some of our spigots to nations that are not with us or are "neutral" , who would yell "uncle" first ?
