I work in the oil business and guess what. It does not matter who is in
the white house or congress as long as wall street is involved. So many
people are looking for a quick buck that in order for a comapany to
stay competative, they have to show solid performance on a quarterly
basis. Anyway, sorry about the soapboxing but we Americans are REALLY
spoiled by cheap undervalued energy. Get used to energy costs rising.
Realistically, we wont'run out of oil, just out of cheap oil. There is
sooooooo much oil out there, the problem is we keep having to go deeper
and deeper to get it. Also, natural gas is virtually inexhaustable. You
ever see an oil rig with a bright flame burning off of it? That's
excess natural gas that the just burn off because there's no market for
it. That market is starting to expand with these high gas prices. Oh,
by the way I agree, name calling of Clinton is not an intelligent
approach to anything but instead the refuge of a lazy mind, I am no
clinton lover by any means but come on pal.
