The last time the government got serious about "doing something about oil" they messed up the whole economy. Remember Nixon's wage price controls and the economic disaster that followed? I hope they stay far away from this issue. Yes, they should buy oil while it is cheap and stash it away in the oil reserve, but I wonder whether any of them have the brains or the guts to think ahead on any matter. Just heard Congressman JD Hayworth speak: US troop strength is now half of what it was during Desert Storm. Thank you Clinton for balancing the budget. If we do go after Saddam it will, of necessity, be a lot smaller show than last time. From other sources: as to those Patriot Missiles being sent to Israel to protect our President ... about a year ago there was a huge hooo haaaa about how truly ineffective they had proven to be last time around. Seems that for each hit they scored, there were a lot of unpublicised misses. Would it not be poetic if Saddam managed to knock off Clinton during his visit to Israel this week using Loral/Hughes technology in his newest missiles against our underfunded military.
