RUSH: Why are any of you afraid of this ditz?

RUSH:...Let me play for you what I thought was the most interesting aspect of the interview last night. Those of you watched it may disagree, but it is this exchange that they had about oil prices. O'Reilly said, "Oil prices. You want us to suspend the federal gas tax. So does McCain. Obama doesn't. But when I hear that, I say, 'It's the same old politician stuff because the Democrat Party was opposed, is opposed to ANWR drilling.' You voted against nuclear energy seven times. And I'm saying to myself, 'Both parties, both parties have sold the folks out on energy, when the folks are getting hammered and they should be angry at both parties.' Where am I going wrong?"

HILLARY: Well, here's what I think. I think there's plenty of blame to go around. We're not acting like Americans, Bill. We're not in charge, and I want to put us back in charge. I also want to take on OPEC. You know, OPEC is a cartel, it's a monopoly.

O'REILLY: You want to take them on?

HILLARY: Yes.

O'REILLY: They don't care what you say. They're in Saudi Arabia and Venezuela.

HILLARY: Nine of the 13 biggest oil producing companies that are in OPEC are also members of the WTO. I would file complaints. I would also change the laws so that citizens and businesses could file anti-trust actions. We're going to begin to hold them accountable.

RUSH: What the hell is she talking about? Why are any of you afraid of this ditz? Did you just hear what she said her plan of action is to bring down oil prices? Lawsuits! Against bin al-Weid Taliban Asheed Sahib Skyhook. Do you what bin Talawad Kalabi Asid Sahib Skyhook is going to do when he sees Mrs. Clinton's lawsuit at the World Trade Organization? He's going to make a paper airplane out of it and send it back over here on one of his Airbus A380s. This is how they want to fight terrorism: with lawsuits! OPEC is not a monopoly. There are many oil producing companies that are not part of OPEC. This is incompetence on parade

Huma might have to deploy Operation: Scorched Hillary if her Saudi handlers get upset about this.

Hillary....people in Western New York are still waiting for those 200,000 jobs you promised them.

Eight years ago!

Clinton intends to use the bully pulpit to get OPEC to raise production, and to lower prices.

Somewhere near 93% of worldwide daily oil production comes from state owned entities, so that is the overall supplier group.

Our two biggest suppliers in 2007 were NOT in OPEC, namely Canada and Mexico. They do, however, sell their products at world market prices.

I would hope that some of the suppliers would say “increase your own production. Drill your coasts and your arctic. Quit driving up world food prices, with the inane ethanol from food-corn nonsense.”

....some plush place in the world...

Like when Hillary cooked up a universal healthcare plan that would have taken over about 12% of the economy...in some plush place!

Since her dear friends wouldn’t let her shed “blood for oil,” what will she do, “whine for oil?”

Honestly, instead of dedicating herself, her candidacy to the cause of viable energy alternatives, she comes with this non-starter.

How brazenly obsequious can you get? What a shameless sham of political posturing ever in the history of shady political brown-nosers!

I can such imagine her sitting around with her campaign lackeys as they throw out all sorts of convoluted, cockamamie strategies and then,

Bingo! Eureka!
OPEC!
Yes, that's it!!

What a perfectly ingenious nemesis! Yes, OPEC! It's a sputtering campaign's dream come true, the perfect campaign target that encompasses, gas prices, Arabs, Muslims, foreign countries, hughly prfoitable, mega-monolithic oil entities and more!!!

Every time she opens her mouth on economic issues you can tell she hasn’t a club about economics.

More from the same speech.......

"We’re going to go right at OPEC," she said. "They can no longer be a cartel, a monopoly that get together once every couple of months in some conference room in some plush place in the world, they decide how much oil they’re going to produce and what price they’re going to put it at," she told a crowd at a firehouse in Merrillville, IN.

"That’s not a market. That’s a monopoly," she said, saying she'd use anti-trust law and the World Trade Organization to take on OPEC.

Suddenly, she's become a free market warrior? I doubt it. This is the same person who want to implement price controls and central government oversight over healthcare. Nobody's fooled.

Thanks for posting this. I’d heard about this on the news and knew someone would post it on FR.

Not only does she think she is the smartest, but also the most powerful woman in the world.
