Appeasement Part Deux

So, the country we've been appeasing for several presidential administrations now, including the present one, just stuck its thumb in George's Bush's eye when he went begging for some more oil production. Giving lie, once again, to the silly oil speculator myth, that rising prices are about supply and demand, the King of Saudi Arabia says that he sees no increased calls for demand from his customers.

You have to love how all of these chickens are coming home to roost on George Bush's shoulders. Only problem is we're paying for the damn chicken feed.

Maybe George Bush knows what appeasement really is now.

UPDATE: Turns out Saudi Arabia had a change of heart. They are increasing production in June by 300,000 barrels a day. Sounds like a lot of appeasing going on somewhere.
