As a capitalist, Mr. Bush understands that profit is good and necessary to provide the $trillions in capital needed to search for the supplies we'll need in the years to come. Why do statists think people would go to the trouble to search for oil if they couldn't expect to make a nice profit? ``As an oilman, Bush understands lower demand has to be met by lower supply. Also he understands that OPEC's withholding of oil from the market hasn't been totally responsible for the high heating oil and gasoline prices we've had in the U.S.,'' said Aaron Brady of Washington's Energy Security Analysis Inc.

That article is exactly what I am talking about. Evidence that Bush-Cheney can, do and have worked closely with OPEC to manipulate world energy prices. And they're not high enough for them yet. Of course they don't give a rat's ass about consumers, just their own cronies and political agendae which include devastation of the environment for short-term energy and windfall profit's sake. What are you defending here anyway? This is proof positive. They did it before and now they arrogantly trying to do it again. Raise prices so they can then scare us into letting them gouge, over-build, over drill and over-plunder,
