[George M. Middius[_4_]]

A month ago, I observed that President Dumbya was prostrating hisself to get
the Saudis to open the oil spigots wider. Scottie Witlessmongrel, Economics
Eckthpurt, advised me that Bushie was wrong, wrong, wrong:

Saudis can't increase delivery of anything but heavy sour oil.
There is no available refining capacity for that grade.
So what would be the point?

Farsighted Scottie knew the Prez was headin' in the wrong di-reck-shun and
made no bones 'bout tellin' us so. But wait -- what happened today? The
NYTimes tells us this astonishing story:


Plan Would Lift Saudi Oil Output to Highest Ever
Saudi Arabia, the world’s biggest oil exporter, is planning to
increase its output next month by about a half-million barrels a
day, according to analysts and oil traders who have been briefed
by Saudi officials

I wonder why Dumbya kept after the Saudis instead of listening to Wise
Scottie Terrierdork. Can somebody who knows this field explain this shocking
development?
