Exactly. Karl Rove commanded a fleet of Halliburton black helicopters to fly over Prudhoe Bay and corrode the pipeline, so that the neo-cons of Exxon/BP running the White House could profit from their . . . ;-)
LOL! What I don't understand is if some folks really believe this, why would BP need a pretext to withhold oil from the market to raise prices? Just do it.
...somehow making money by NOT selling the oil, which is stuck at the far-end of the pipeline and in the ground. It's just scary that basic stuff like economics is not taught in schools today, but putting-condoms-on-bananas is.
As I look up at the TV screen, oil is up $1.49 and natural gas is actually down, so it appears that Ms. Market is kinda yawning at this news.
