Best damn thing Bush has done in a while....now give him his due

No. They're the predictions of people working for the Enviromental Information Agency. Call me crazy, but I'm going to side with them.

BTW, have you produced one fact to back your arguments. One?

 

Bush announces the end of the offshore drilling ban ... and oil drops about $9 a barrel today.

I'm not sayin', but I'm just sayin'.

 

And regular unleaded is still $4.10 a gallon at the corner.

I'm not sayin', but I'm just sayin' ...

 

NEW YORK (AP) -- Oil prices fell harder than they have in 17 years Tuesday, as fears that record fuel prices are spreading broad economic pain led to the third big sell-off in just over a week.


So what's this shit about oil not ever dropping in price?

This lede, if accurate, just shows how late these people get up on Wall Street. Do they have to have some kind of report from a puppet master to realize that the pain has been around for some time and not just at the sound of today's opening bell?

 

Don't worry, they'll be back up at the end of the week, if not sooner.

 

That's something I've been railing about forever.

Whatever the market does . . . the reporter has to invent some "reason" behind it.

A few years ago it was "stocks plunged amid fears of a hike in interest rates . . . "

At the time interest rates were at 40-year lows. But a 0.25% increase in record-low rates makes everyone scramble for the exits? Please.

The reason listed about is staggeringly stupid.

 

But is it the reporter or is it the puppets on the Wall Street floors?

 

Both, I guess.

But only one of them is believing it at face value and sending to his paper or web site.

Lazy.

 

Agreed, but whose got time to be hard-working when you're counting easy money and trying to be politically correct?

 

Dead solid perfect, BTE.
