Hope people like $6.00/gal gasoline.

It would be worth it to stabilize the region after monkey boy is ousted

I’m not talking about an action by the U.S. which will result in the price hike. I’m talking about how the U.S. oil companies will use this incident as another excuse to raise the price of crude due to the “threat” being posed here (threat being anything they can use as a reason for padding their pockets).

Speak for yourself. I'm still p*ssed having to pay over $3.00 per gallon as a price for toppling Hussein!

Castro's Cuba has been a greater de-stabilizing factors for more years and we haven't done anything, so why should we incur loss of life and $6.00 a gallon gas for someone that just shoots his mouth off?

about 1.5 million barrels a day are imported from Venezuela. A top 5 supplier looking to sabre rattle past its economic cold war into something potentially quite a bit warmer.

Should be good for about a .25 cent boost on diesel and gasoline Monday morning.

I’m beginning to wonder if these tin pot dictators are in cahoots with the hedgers, like say George Soros, who has extensive experience in manipulating currencies and commodity markets. Seems like our communist revolution is getting daily pushes in favor of the Obama politicos.

Our economy and markets are be manipulated, as is our electoral process.
