swheelerA thank you from the Arabs
The OPEC minister may look you in the eye and say,
'We are at war with you infidels and have been since
the embargo in the 1970s. You are so arrogant you
haven't even recognized it. You have more missiles,
bombs, and technology; so we are fighting with the
best weapon we have and extracting on a net basis
about $700 billion/year out of your economy. We will
destroy you! Death to the infidels!
While I am here I would like to thank you for the
following: Not developing your 250-300 year supply of oil
shale and tar sands. we know if you did this, it
would create thousands of jobs for U.S. citizens,
expand your engineering capabilities, and keep the
wealth in the U.S. instead of sending it to us to
finance our war against you infidels.
Thanks for limiting defense dept. purchases of
oil sands from your neighbors to the north. We love
it when you confuse your allies.
Thanks for over regulating every segment of your
economy and thus delaying, by decades, the
development of alternate fuel technologies.
Thanks for limiting drilling off your coasts, in
Alaska , and anywhere there is an insect, bird, fish, or
plant that might be inconvenienced. Better that your
people suffer. Glad to see our lobbying efforts have
been so effective.
Corn based Ethanol. Praise Allah for this sham
program! Perhaps you will destroy yourself from the
inside with theses types of policies. This is a gift
from Allah, praise his name! We never would have
thought of this one! This is better than when you
pay your farmers NOT TO GROW FOOD. Have them use
more energy to create less energy, and
simultaneously drive up food prices.
Thank you U.S. Congress!
And finally, we appreciate you letting us fleece
you without end. You will be glad to know we have
been accumulating shares in your banks, real estate,
and publicly held companies. We also finance a good
portion of your debt and now manipulate your
markets, currency, and economies for our benefit.
THANK YOU AMERICA !'

Norman ConquestYes I know this is the humor column + not the political,but since I did'nt start it,I might add that I miss the leadership of T.R.Manifest destiny indeed.I miss the leadership of Harry Truman."Give en hell Harry".I'll stop now as anyone reading this on this forum already most likely feels the same + the redundency is tiresome.
NORMAN C---You are correct, what we need is someone to kick a--, like H.S.T. The 545 members in D.C. are all a bunch of wimps.

Frank MartinezEven more deplorable is that " we are the money mongering oil cartels destroying free trade".
Most of the oil companies are American based.
