Things That Make Ya Go "Hmm..."
 
The very same week that oil company executives are getting grilled by
Congress, gas prices at the pump have fallen precipitously from their
peak last summer.

Coincidence?

They were never offline. Oil rigs are 99% air. They can take anything
but a direct nuclear hit. It was all just another bush-lie.

We already showed you a couple pics of oil rigs that were broken from
their mounts and washed nearly on short during Katrina, moron.

Since gas prices are based on the futures market, it's certainly
plausible that people who trade in such things see Congressional
hearings and it quells the price.

But in my area, they've been dropping for a month.

Kinda straining there aren't you? Gas prices out here have come down
about 50 cents. This week? No. Gradually over the past 3 weeks before
the hearings started.

If you're an oil company executive facing the possibility of a
windfall profits tax, what better way to prepare for your appearance
before Congress?
