First, the Saudis are putting more production on hold for 'future' generations.
Gas and oil hit record prices.
Our illustrious President begs the Saudis for more oil. They curtly refuse.
The US sees the largest decline in driving since 1942.
The Saudis suddenly reevaluate, and are now starting to pump more oil.
Granted, this may fall outside their proposed moratorium on oil production, but it is at least a violation of OPEC caps and a repudiation of the refusal of Bush's begging.
Maybe if our elected officials realize that the way to get lower prices is not by authorizing people to sue OPEC or begging countries to pump more oil, but to actually take steps to conserve and reduce their consumption to drive down prices and get OPEC and other countries to act the way we want them to.
