Guess the oil bubble really has popped and they need to prop-up prices with a crisis.

I've been thinking that too. It's only a matter of time before some left-wing Democrat shill comes up with a line of reasoning that somehow (a) lays this off on President Bush and (b) is not totally off-the-wall loony-tunes sounding. When that happens, every MSM commentator and talking head will pick up the line and babble it into the echo chamber.

The libs are supporting the Russian invasion since Georgia is a so called “puppet “ of the US. Amazing.

Russia wants to control the flow of oil to Europe. That way they can blackmail them by threatening to cut off their oil if the Europeans don’t obey the Kremlin’s whims. That’s why they’re arming Iran with missiles and nukes; so the mullahs can do the same to the major oil-producers in the Middle East.

This move by Russia was about oil. The Energy War has begun.

“Prime Minister” Vladimir Putin just showed up in Vladikavkaz (South Ossetia) “discuss the influx of refugees” from the battles. Yea, right. Looks like we know who is still running the show.

President Reagan warned the Euro peos about this Russian pipeline. They didn’t listen because they were not about to take advice from us hated Americans.

Good. Go pound sand Euro peos.

Sad part is neither the GOP or DNC will handle this situation properly. Too much Liberal Free Trade Globalist pandering and stupidity.

The gossip on the street said that Putin replied in private, “I looked up his a$$ and found his brain.”
