Obama, Sarah’s got your foreign oil independence - RIGHT HERE!!!!!
I’m positioned similarly: long DUG (ultrashort oil & gas stocks), long UUP, long HOC (refiner).
Your wallet : The only place dRATs want to drill.
Republicans, all American ticket, no fake Americans allowed.
It would be interesting to track oil prices according to the success of the McCain/Palin campaign.
If they experience surges in the polls - I wonder if the price of oil will drop further.
Hmmm, lessee, GS has this great big commodities fund that's been booming and taking in tens of billions. Oil drops around $6 and the GS research department proclaims it's going to run up to $200. Prices immediately reverse course, though the speculative frenzy fails to hold and prices resume their plunge.
In a word, this is called "manipulation." GS' research department is expert at it. So is T Boone. He'd give a speech about peak oil and prices would jump the next day, making Pickens a tidy sum in the futures market. In fact, he bragged how he made more money in oil futures than he ever made producing the black gold.
Anything regarding oil or energy that comes from GS or Pickens is about making money for GS or Pickens. It may be perfectly legal, but they're still trying to manipulate the market.
Give someone like Palin a national mic and she can counter the market manipulation. If we get serious about drilling, we can reduce prices to the $50 range. And with advances in technology, peak oil gets put off for another hundred years as we extract our shale oil reserves that exceed all of the oil in Saudi, we explore and drill the OCS, north slope, Arctic, and Federal lands. We don't lack oil. We lack will.
Whereas W thinks Wall Streeters are a bunch of drunks.
I came to office promising to control spending - by request if possible and by veto if necessary. Our state budget is under control. We have a surplus. And I have protected the taxpayers by vetoing wasteful spending: nearly half a billion dollars in vetoes."
You'd never hear W say that. It was always the "new tone in Washington" crap. I can't wait until the Connecticut blueblood, fake cowboy retires.
I lOVE THE PALIN PICK FOR VP!!!!!!!!!
Her speech was awesome and her TIMING was PERFECT!
Jesse Jackson went to hospital with stomach pains, I think he is UPSET!
Dow down 235. Wall Street’s got a funny way of showing how much they love her.
