It's easy for Clinton haters to point the finger at this as a simple political agenda but nary a word that Big Oil might be manipulating prices higher for fun and profit, not to mention them trying to buy the White House. The Cheney selection was quite overt no?

I infer from your comments that you are accusing the Republicans of collusion with "big oil" to buy the election.

My point was that, while capitalism may be a willing participant in the pricing of oil, I am doubtful that political intrigue has much of a part to play.

Moreover, at these prices plenty of oil has reached the refineries. The bottleneck now lies with the refineries operating at virtual capacity. I doubt Clinton's decision has anything but psychological (if that) impact on the current crisis.

If I inferred incorrectly, then please accept my humble apology.
