    • 10 Signs of a Recession [view article]
      Wildhawk; Obama and McCain are professional politicians, nothing more. They'll say anything to get elected. You're worried about how much "the war" cost; what about spending 500 million every four years to elect a president or 600 billion a year to import foreign oil? Lobbyists run Washington not the voting public. The US President is a figure head and Congress controls the money. Follow the money. When Oil is 200.00 a barrell and gasoline hits 6.00 a gallon what do you think the politicians will do then? Drill baby, drill.

      We went into Iraq because Saddam went off the reservation after the Gulf War and was a continuing threat to the Saudi's. Iran is the last great threat to the Saudi empire and their days are numbered. Remeber the photograph of GW holding King Faud's hand. That said it all.

      We'll never leave the middle east as long as we need Gulf oil, period. Besides, low grade, on-going combat is beneficial for the MIC (Military Industrial Complex). Yes, it's wrong, but life's not fair and wussies get screwed.

      The "spice" must flow.

      Play the game and go long RIG, COP, CHK, and KPM and you will feel better about high oil and gas prices.
