Lame Duck Laffs Last

Algeria Daily has a piece on OPEC telling Mr. Bush, who in his last year is what is considered a "lame duck" president, to go fly a spy satellite somewhere, thereby refusing to boost oil production. http://www.algeriadaily.com/ (It was actually a reprint of an article from The Australian: http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197,23327796-12335,00.html) They seem to be under the same illusion that we were when we were told - back when oil was $25/bbl.- that invading Iraq would bring Oil Heaven to all of us...field hands. They seem to be unaware that the war has driven the price of oil to over $100/bbl. and rising. Lame duck gets laughed at. Maybe Hugo Chavez will give us a deal again? If only Mr. Ben Bernanke were the head of OPEC! Then we would see some kowtowing! ....................................... Equal Time Allotment
