Oil Prices Surge to a New High $114 per barrel / $28 when bu$h* took office
Edited on Tue Apr-15-08 08:53 PM by spanone



Oil prices surged to a new high on Tuesday, rising to nearly $114 a barrel, as scattered pipeline interruptions and a weak dollar pressured a tight global market.

4. Bush has created a new torture called "oil boarding". The American non rich classes
(not Shrub's base)have all their money taken by Oil Companies and feel like they can't breathe.
