Saudis tell bush to go screw himself........
Then again, it could be possible the whole request was a charade.

Anyone who thinks the U.S. is invincible should just remind themselves that we chose Bush TWICE!

Good for the King. I'd do the same thing. Tell him to go max out our own supply first.

I would crucify chimpy for not being able to jawbone his Saudi masters, but he gets a pass from me because I think the real story here is that they are basically incapable of increasing production at this point. '73 is correct that it could all be a charade, though.

You won't find me defending the Saudis on much else. Those ****ers need to allow an audit of their reserves ASAP so we have some clue whether the global economy can have any hope of growing over the next decade.

It looks like Bush has a case of Hemorrhoid or Alzheimer or both.

Are there any States in the US with poor economic futures, high unemployment, and available land, that could put in a bunch of refineries? I would think such a plan would bring in billions of dollars.
I just can't think of a State that could use this sort of replacement for lost manufacturing jobs off hand.

Well think harder! One of the 57 should work.

For once i agree with you
Like i said, i know several very well to do Saudi's, and in no uncertain terms they have told me the King and Bush allow Armed fighters into Iraq from Saudi and allow it to happen. Its common knowledge over there.
There are as many if not more militants entering from Saudi than Iran. These same guys told me Iranians enjoy way more human rights than Saudi's do , as wierd as that might sound to the uninformed.

Bottom line is demand is growing much faster than supply.

You mean the famous Bush2 jawbone technique fell on deaf ears?
Shocked, I'm shocked.

Is there any doubt that Bush's funeral will resemble The Great Gatsby's?
