The Wages of Fear
_________________________________

Dear Ms. Cafferty,

Do you and your fellow journalists understand that there is some correlation between the price of oil and the price of gasoline?

Let me explain: the more expensive the oil, the more expensive the gasoline.

Now, why is the price of oil hitting new records every day? Hmmm... could there be some connection between the price of oil and Bush and crew 'all options on the table' statements when asked whether they are planning to nuke oil-producing Iraq? There probably is a connection but God forbid you, news guys over-strain your brains.

If the Bushies continue to throw empty words at Iran, oil will be at $100 by Memo Day. If the Bushies actually do something beligerent (doubtful), oil hits $200, China goes into economic crisis and turns unpredictable. If the Bushies throw a small nuke at Iran, it's the end of the US as we know it, the 'survival of the fittest' law will be the only law that matters.
