Louetta's Lore

This sounds a bit like "walk softly and carry a big stick" to me.
Buford Pusser for President !

Well if the shoe fits then wear it. That particular Roosevelt was the type of man that we need to see more of but I think that kind of man and politican is long gone. We have a draft dodger leading the country and into war on top of that. He didn't have enough backbone to serve his country then but will now send young American men to their death without a thought. He makes me sick to my stomach. Especially when he says "the American people need to stay the course and stand up for Iraq for their well being and the democratic way of life" when he doesn't have enough backbone to do it himself.

I don't want to condone unnecessary war of any type but I do want them to understand where the power lies. I also want them to understand that you can't go around making idle threats for fear of someone just might take you up on it and stick your foot in your mouth. We seem to have lost that presence and I think it comes from trying to make a point while trying to be politically correct at the same time. It just doesn't work that way. We should either keep our mouth shut, stay out or it, or come down with a vengence when we do decide to act. Swift, decisive, and over and done with. I am also tired of our broadcasting everything we plan to do. I've always felt that silence is the key to creating the mood before the action. All we need is a few good men in Washington. Someone like Colin Powell who will think it thru first, make a plan accordingly, and act with decisiveness in stopping the threat. Simple but it takes some backbone and honesty which there is a big lack of in our top leaders.

Well the price of gas won't plummet simply because a gas station that just paid 1.95 for each gallon of gas in their tanks are going to be all fired up about selling it for 1.85, making it up on volume





There are other factors, aside from market (read supply/demand) forces.

for example, the additional carrier battle group moving into the region.

Iran has long claimed that it would close the straits of hormuz. OTOH, they've been itching for an old fashioned a$$ whooping since the beruit Marine barracks attack.

Me thinks there is going to be additional puckerage in the region, before things calm down again.

Bush clearly stated as such in his speech. Which is a good thing, those clowns need to quake in their sandals just thinking about bothering us, to ensure peace.

That is one of the problems with using economics to try to determine price moves. It that little clause of "all other item(s) remain constant." Those other items changes all the time. Theoretically we could have an over supply of oil, but the refiners could have slow down, the distributors could be stock piling, and so on, and so on. IMO for over supply to drop prices, it has to be over supplied by the oil countries, the oil companies, the refiners, distributors, and your local gas station. The rest of the time its just price manipulation.

Supply and Demand...I think I read about that in some book...This is a big game...There is plenty of supply to see your Great Grand Kids thru...However, it is the control of the release of that supply.

Theoretically if there is an over supply then prices go down...So, as oil prices have plummeted why am I paying more to fill up my car???...In this case it seems that an over supply has caused prices to rise...Oh My!!!

Do you know why that is???

Are you saying demand has nothing to do with it?

No I wouldn't. By the by have you ever seen the episode of Star Trek where Spock has a form of digital intercourse with a woman? Each raises a hand such as in your picture and they, well, finger each other.

Yea, I did see that...I wish you could do that in real life.

Lou would look even better if she had Vulcan ears.

I see a definite resemblance, Park.

Maybe they are one in the same. Remarkable resemblance.
