Chavez or Bush?

Chavez and the DNC both fixed elections. Bush was very beatable,
probably
the most beatable incumbant in history. But the DNC blesses Kerry as
the
Dem's candidate? Had to be a fix to lose the election.

Boy, even in hindsight your vision is foggy.

jps

Why do you say that? You think Kerry was a good choice? Best Choice in
your view?

If you bother to think back for a moment, you will remember that Kerry
came blazing to the forefront in Iowa -- not because of what the DNC did
but because people there (and lots of other places) thought that his
military service and heroism would counteract the "war president."

I thought so too but I wanted the primary races to remain competitive
for many more weeks into the year, for fear that Kerry would dive to the
middle as soon as Dean's chances faded.

Of course, that's exactly what happened. Kerry dove to the middle and
lost all his luster.

That, and the little dirty tricks launched by the Swift Boaters.

Jog your memory at all?

jps

Did you prove the swift boaters wrong? 3 purple hearts and out. 3 minor
owies and he is out. Very liberal politics. You like that part, but most
people don't and most people saw though the Viet Nam crap. Is was a rear
runner, but all the sudden he surges to the front. How much DNC money went
his way? And you look at the field the Democratic Party supported. None
outstanding, let alone very good. How about Lieberman? He might of won if
they had thrown money his way. I think the country will even igore that he
is Jewish. Same was said for a Catholic candidate in 1960. Dean, just look
at his actions as head of the Dem's now to see how incompetant he is. Worst
thing Lieberman did, was tie his star to the coat tails of Gore. As you see
Gore is not the choice of the people. They see him as an indecisive idiot,
with no back bone to stand up and say the POTUS is wrong, when he is
associated with the POTUS.

Self-fulfilling prophecy. This is a market driven by speculation
and
insider information.

I saw the article yesterday and just put it away. Watching CNBC
yesterday, you had prices going from $2.62 to $6 a gallon.

My guess is it will hit a high around $2,90 and settle back once
the
refineries come back on-line.
Hugo Chavez says $50 a barrel for oil is sufficient.
Unfortunately, Hugo Chaves doesn't control the price of oil. I know
he likes to think he does, but he doesn't.
He's a cool dude.
He'll be a cold dude soon. Ice cold.


Oh, puh-lease. One of the best attributes of Chavez is that he gives
Bush and the neo-convicts fits. What could be better?

Someone who was not a nutcase dictator. And he fixed the election. Do a
little research. May be his local opposition that ice's him.

He "fixed" the election? I'm shocked, I tell you, shocked. Why, that would
never happen here in a presidential election!


Did not say it would not happen in a Presidential Election. Look at what
Perot did. At least they did not ban opposition parties as Venezuela did.

I went to the marina today to drop the boat off so they could take it off
the trailer and onto a 3 point stand.....I need to epoxy barrier coat and
bottom coat (it was it was always trailered before). On the way there I
gassed it up at a local station at $2.74/gallon (I did not top it off last
fall thinking gas prices would fall).

After the boat was put onto the blocks/jack stands I checked the gas price
at the dock and it was $2.98......must be last years gas. At least some
marina's do not jump on the gas price gouging bandwagon when the opportunity
arises and only raise prices when justified by a new shipment of gas. ;-)

All we have to do is let Israel to do what it needs to do, and oil prices
will be back in check. This Iran BS is getting old.

Hate to break it to you, Dan, but the price of crude oil (i.e. the
price per bbl paid to the companies that are owned 51% by Iran and 49%
by Big Oil), has very little to do with the price per gallon you will
pay to fill your car or boat. Remember last year? Big Oil was crying
that it's profits were being squeezed by the price of crude oil and/or
damage from Katrina, (and/or liberal environmental obstructionists
opposing the planting drilling rigs in the middle of national parks or
siting refineries across the street from grade schools). In reality,
the net profits from the prices that were raised much higher and raised
much faster than costs were accumulating at a rate that has been
usurpassed in human history. When you're pumping $5 gas at the marina,
don't even begin to blame it on Iran.

I hate to break it to you, but I sit in commodities daily, and about 10% of
the current $70 brent crude price is because of Iran. Futures markets are
out of control - and futures markets predict issues with Iran.

Crude oil rose to $70 a barrel in Asian electronic trading Monday, driven by
concerns over declining gasoline stocks in the United States and Iran's
nuclear standoff with the international community.

In other words, they're driven by a bunch of suits who are guessing at what
could happen. The RICO statutes have been successfully stretched to include
a few odd situations. I wonder if they'd fit this situation.

Share Dan's bong? :}

Shhhh.....don't distract him. Maybe he'll tell us what Israel needs to do.
But, I suspect he'll stick with his game, which is popular around he Make
unspoken suggestions as if he were a CIA station chief speaking to covert
operatives in a dark coffee shop in Istanbul. Wink...wink....go take care of
it. A spy wannabe.

At least NOYB comes right out and says it, even though only a total idiot
would even consider "it".
