Texas oilmen are at our throats again
Edited on Thu Jan-03-08 07:37 AM by SparkyMac
Have you noticed that when oil hit $100 a barrel yesterday, that North Sea crude never got over $98 a barrel. I wonder why it is that our friends and allies in England always charge us less for oil that do the Saudis and the Texas oil sheiks ?

Why is it that every time we bomb the Arabs, the price of West Texas Crude oil goes up ? I never could understand that relationship.

With friends like the Saudis, the Israelis and the Texas sheiks -- the working people in America can't afford any enemies.

1. Unless the criminals are impeached and convicted expect a year long throat knashing.

2. Is North Sea oil sweet light crude?
This grade of crude oil brings the highest price on the open market. Crude oils that have a higher sulfur content are cheaper, but more costlier to refine.
