Although it isn't much, every little bit helps.

Cheney has been a great vice president. I could never see Obama capable of doing this. "Talks" don't render such outcome.

I saw a release about oil companies looking at drilling off of the US today.

I still have mixed feelings about these guys.

But I guess I can say that out of all the oppressive monarchies with a bad human rights record they are my favorite.

Ask me about that story again some time.

They seem to be moderate compared to what the Chinese are doing right now to the innocent Tibetan munks.

Lets be honest, Saudi Arabia's monarchy might be oppressive, but it has been instilled for centuries. The people there are used to this type of rule and have always had this type of rule. Therefore, making it a big deal when it really isn't isn't worth our time.

I won't think twice at the pump.

But they can't control prices on a whim?

Not necessarily in that order.

You have a great misunderstanding of Saudi Arabia. The Saud family, the 'Monarchy' ruling the country took it over once the Ottoman empire fell apart. They are a new Monarchy, only being established in the 30's. The people absolutely hate them but are severly restricted. However, the seeds of a proletarian revolution are certainly there andikely to germinate very soon, say when Oil stops being the 'big' commodity.

Fact is, our Oil connections seem to be paying off, but what do you expect when our troops are all over their region. However, Saudi Arabia is probably going to collapse soon and if we are very unlucky it'll go down the Iranian road.

I'll bet the average person in Saudi Arabia hates the US. This is because we have backed this oppressive regime. A repeat of Iran. Another great American screw up that inevitably will bite us in inappropiate places.

Exactly, they can't. You're finally learning. If they could then prices would be half of what's being discussed now.
