If the government actually wanted lower prices you don't think Bush could say a few words to the right people?

No.
I am convinced Saudi Arabia wants Bush out as president.
What better way than to jack up the price of oil.
Perhaps China has had enough of Bush as well.
If that is the case China will be buying more than it needs. Putting on price pressures.

You don't think the government should stop buying at these high oil prices to just place oil in reserve?

Our resereves are dangerously low.
The real question is why weren't we slowly filling them over time? Probably cause we were too stupid to see the affect of Chinese demand. Now what? What happens if there is terrorism in Saudi Arabia and a pipeline is taken out, or a refinery, or worse yet the govt falls? You want to dwindle our supplies further and pray nothing bad happens?
