- This SOB regime has no plan to rescue the US economy just like a bunch of thugs who saw a man got run over by a speeding car but did not offer help.

- Bush is public #1 enemy, this SOB will find any way to stop the flow of oil for these reasons:
1- Sell his oil at much higher prices.
2- Keep the people poor so he can control.
3- Kill as many people around the world as he can.
This SOB and the other SOB should be hung by the people if we get to know all of their secrets. - Reply to this comment

Even funnier that every time the Democratic Congress tries to do anything good, it gets VETO''ED by Bush and then there are not enough Dems to override the Veto. Please get your facts straight before you try to find ''humor'' in the Dem''s so-called lack of abilities. The blame goes right to the heart of things - Bush and the Republicans! - Reply to this comment
- To follow the previous post:
Bush administration officials knew that a Texas oil company with close ties to President George W. Bush was planning to sign an oil deal with the regional Kurdistan government that runs counter to American policy and undercut Iraq''s central government, a congressional committee has concluded.
The conclusions were based on e-mail messages and other documents that the committee released Wednesday.
United States policy is to warn companies that they incur risks in signing contracts until Iraq passes an oil law and to strengthen Iraq''s central government. The Kurdistan deal, by ceding responsibility for writing contracts directly to a regional government, infuriated Iraqi officials. But State Department officials did nothing to discourage the deal and in some cases appeared to welcome it, the documents show.
Now, do you really have to wonder about the millions of missing emails this rogue administration refuses to answer about? - Reply to this comment
- Cheney met with the Energy Commission, all secret and from the public as was common with this rogue administration. Getting a war wouldn''t be too hard, since 9/11 warnings were purposely ignored to provide Bush and his minions with the catalyst necessary. So, the lies began about Iraq. This created destruction, killings, and the greatest unstability and it sweeted the oil pot for profits. Now all the back scratching is nearly complete. Except, for the board positions Bush and Cheney will receive in a few months from now. This is the Bush crooks in a nutshell. There is a lot more, Waxman will be bringing it all out.

- Bushs fault everyone in America wanted to have two SuVs for the family. Bushs fault everyone in America wanted a huge house for themselves. Bushs fault Dems keep blocking us from drilling for our own oil. Almost funny how much the left blames on Bush.

- Thank you President Bush!!! Thank you to you, and your administration, for placing the nations balls in a vice and cranking on the handle!!! The incompetence of you and your entire administration have succeeded in "kneecapping" the country!
Buch, Cheney and all their oil company buddies have to get one last big payday before Bush''s term is over!!! - Reply to this comment
- 2) There is no doubt that the market will still be driven by supply and demand even if we drill however domestic supplies will be cheaper for Americans because it won''''t have to be transported overseas. Additionally the more supply the lower the cost, basic economics 101 PERIOD.

...........
It''s a simplistic mindset that just because oil is drilled/extracted here in the U.S., that it will stay in the U.S. Unless there is a written law that ALL oil drilled in the U.S. is kept in the U.S. (which it currently is not), then the big oil companies would be more willing to sell the oil out of OUR OWN SOIL to folks paying with the Euro... for starters.
So an extreme amount of environmental damage would occur on OUR OWN SOIL, but the price of oil and the price of gas... from the hypothetical drilling in our own country... will not decrease by any noticeable amount.

- The birth-death "adjustment" added 177,000 jobs to the latest report, which put the total adjustment for the year at 600,000 new jobs -- or so the government claims.
Of course, it arrived at this number through a completely flawed methodology: At the end of the year, these numbers will quietly be backed out - just as they were last year. Even given these manufactured numbers, employment decline is consistent with recession.
The government only has statistics for jobs that are lost by small businesses; it gets this information from employment insurance numbers, etc. It has no information about how many jobs are created. Thus, it makes it up.
The government just assumes that for every job lost, there''s one added -- and then it adds that back to the jobs number.
This logic is flawed, to say the least.
In a recession, does it make sense that jobs would be created at the same rate at which they''re lost? Of course not, but that''s how government bureaucrats think and act -- just one reason we''re in so much trouble.
It''s not reality, but manipulation, pure and simple. If you recall, the government very quietly acknowledged that all those birth and death assumptions were false at the end of last year. No one seemed to notice this, of course.
But presto! Over a million jobs it claimed were created vanished into thin air. - Reply to this comment
