Yes, Bushies control oil prices. Prince Bandar, one of Bush's key cronies, is quoted by Bob Woodward as telling GW that he could bring down the price of oil before the election if it would help GW's campaign. That is proof it can be done. Also, Bush in 2000 promised to jawbone OPEC to bring down the price of oil, proving he knew he could do it. Of course he did just the opposite. Also, the Enron-led phony energy crisis (starring all of Bush-Cheney's closest Texas energy pals) succeeded in mutliply the price of energy of all kinds during the gougeathon of 2000-2001, which was also a political attack on Grey Davis in order to install Arnold. Of course they can control the price, within reason. The oil business as a whole is very united under Bush-Cheney and have been sinc the day after those two former oil execs were nominated. If you don't believe this you're a huge sucker.
