The disasterpresident gets help from Saudi Arabia and Big Oil....what a shock.

I feel good now that oil prices are going down(just before the election),dont you? I mean with all the crisis in Iran and North Korea going nuclear and Iraq not producing much oil and Hugo Chavez strumming his guitar, you would think that oil would be going up. Ah, but remember the disasterpresident has great family friends in Saudi Arabia. And now that the heat is off them(it never was on them)for flying planes into our buildings(two buildings hit four buildings fell), they have increased production of oil, mysteriously just before November. Odd. You might think that with the wonders of capitalism they would want to hold production steady, use supply and demand for their own gain, Oil is a commodity that is fast running out after all. Remember, they are great friends of the pretzel, and if he keeps Congress subdued, Saudi Arabia can continue getting transfers of NUCLEAR TECHNOLOGY. That is right, they get NUCLEAR TECHNOLOGY from us. They are using Nuclear Power to take the salt out of ocean water for drinking and crops. Hey, I thought they had all that OIL. They dont need nukes. Atleast that is what this administrations argument is with the axis of evil member Iran. Saudi Arabia has more oil than Iran. So why do they need nukes? Why are we giving them nukes? For that matter, why dont we say anything about them flying planes into our buildings? Well, this is a the same old story of POWER and MONEY. If they help the disasterpresident stay in POWER, they stand to make more MONEY in the long run and benefit from technology transfers. Reminds you of the Port deal, where it was OK to have Middleastern powers in charge of our ports.

That explains the drop in Oil. What about the drop in gasoline prices. The refineries are in our country. Ah, but the guys who run Big Oil are also friends of the disasterpresident. They have made huge profits under his administration and a DO-NOTHING, LOOK-THE-OTHER-WAY Republican Congress. In fact, they have made the largest profits by any measure for any corporation in US history. The greed of BIG OIL knows no bounds. Even though they want to help the disasterpresident retain his rubberstamp Republican Congress, they still like the MONEY and profit they have been allowed to make under the disasterpresident.
Let us examine how the wonders of capitalism effect the Oil market and Gasoline market as praticed in the United States.
In two years Oil prices have followed the same upward trend. The last dip in Oil and Gasoline prices occured in 2004. Interesting. Now, if you look at Oil and Gasoline prices in the last year you see that in all the turmoil, international rough spots for the pretzel, Katrina, Iraq, Iran, Oil has gone down .83%. In the same period Gasoline prices have dropped .61%, 10% of that drop happened this last week. The last week being a particularly poor news week for the Republicans.*
Just looking at the numbers, Oil has dropped internationally 27% more than the price of gasoline for Americans. That is odd. With the wonders of capitalism working its invisible hand to make all our lives better, you would think that Oil and Gasoline(its made from Oil for you Americans that still believe Saddam is the head of Al Qaeda) prices would go up and down in more or less unison. It is amazying how gas prices go up when Democrats are running poorly and down when Republicans are running poorly, especially the disasterpresident. BIG OIL has come through big for the pretzel not only in campaign contributions to him and his favorite lackies in congress, but also in the mood of the country when Gasoline prices go down. It is amazing how this trend in capitilism just seems to flow with the Radical Republican movement. It did not work for Goldwater, a true Republican. Ah, that is because you had another Texan(read BIG OIL guy) in the Whitehouse.
Again, looking at the numbers, this 27% descrepency between the drop in the price of Oil and the drop in the price of Gasoline is roughly equivelant to the amount of exorbitant profits BIG OIL made quarterly during the reign of the disasterpresident. At corporate board rooms around the country you can hear the unanimous cheer, 'find the nearest Diebold voting machine and vote early and often, and make contributions to Republicans as if your profits depended on it.........'
America, get out and vote in November. It is the only power you have left.
