Wait till the boys on Wall Street start speculating in about 11 hours.

 

At 9:52 a.m. Feb. 11, 2008 March Crude down $0.67 to $91.10

 

why does he have to sell to the US?

If you believe in the markets and the source of the resource to determine its own freedom to sell - or not sell - to whomever...

then you wouldn't be advocating this action by the US.

If on the other hand, you think that the US should force other nations to do business with us, well.....

what does that really make you?

 

As a member of OPEC, Venezuela is not free to do as they choose.

 

I say let Chavez do whatever he wants. In the end it will only hurt Venezula.

 

this is a phony argument.

Venezuela is free to sell to whomever they want to, they are however, not necessarily free to raise or lower their prices to undercut other OPEC members. Big difference and you know it is.

Funny you would take the side of OPEC Ronno.

 

You said they were free to do whatever they wanted, I just pointed out you were wrong.

But that is nothing new.

How have I sided with OPEC anyway?

 

Really? I said that? Show me where I said they they were free to whatever they wanted.

show me that quote.

You can't.

 

Testy testy, what does GD stand for?
