$56 per barrel when Bug-Eyed Bela was installed as speaker.

Passed the $132 mark today.

Even those in Rio Linda know that is 1 1/2 times more than it was...and in only 17 months. Great work with that “plan”, Democrats and their enablist RINOs.

And what was that plan? Run democrats as more conservative than Reoublicans. Donkey Dogs, Blue Dogs, whatever. It gave power to the Far Left, the mainstream of their party. I remember that victory smile from Upchuck Schumer, Bela Bug Eye and Dingy Harry, watching Election 2006 from India. I wanted to stay there.

Reuters ^ | May 16, 2008 | Yereth Rosen
ANCHORAGE, Alaska (Reuters) - The Bush administration on Friday proposed keeping potentially oil-rich wetlands in Arctic Alaska off-limits to drilling because of their ecological sensitivity, a reversal of its earlier plan. The Bureau of Land Management proposed a 10-year leasing moratorium for 430,000 acres of wetlands north and east of vast Teshekpuk Lake in the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska. Environmentalists and local groups hailed the decision. "This plan provides a balanced approach to energy development and wildlife protection, and forms a solid basis for the Bureau of Land Management to proceed with an oil and gas lease sale later this year,"...

The media and our politicians bemoan speculators in the oil patch but their attitude and their policies provide an absolute “risk free zone” for speculators given the dynamics of the oil industry! It really is just amazing that we’ve been grappling with this for, really, several decades yet our politicians just stick to the same WRONG policies and playbook... cheered on by the stupid Mainstream Media.

“Good new” drives up prices. What does that tell you about who’s running up the price of oil? And I still smell Soros and his ilk behind this run up.

Inventories fell because we imported 700k less barrels of oil/day than the previous week, down to 9.2 million and almost a million less barrels/day than last year. Iran’s crude stored in tankers went from 20 million to 28 million in just one week. Companies in the US aren’t buying crude. The bubble is going to burst this summer, only problem is knowing when and at what price.
