Discussion: Oil Prices Rising, Nearing $107 On Iraq Chaos

Discussion for article #223894

I suppose this was inevitable, as many of us libs and progressives warned back in 2003 & 2003. And I suppose it’s inevitable that Obama will feel the pressure to send additional help, including, God help us, troops.

I can’t help but wonder if George W. Bush still cannot think of anything he might’ve done differently.

So, the price per barrel in 2000 was…$27.40, averaged. Inflation would bring that to $33.60 or so.

GWB, fucking things up in more ways than you’ll ever understand.
