Cheney is doing his very best to keep oil prices high.

The oil prices are being held high by greedy ****s manipulating the
commodities markets (and hoping people will blame it on the war).

They were going to try that on computer memory a few years back, until
they became aware of how many computer support people were willing to
quit maintaining their ultra-important computers in protest. I figured
they'd try again during the 9/11 job slump, but maybe they realized that
the job market would rebound and their new slaves could quit in protest
then too. Had they succeeded, you'd find memory at $5 per megabyte today.

Both Kerry and Edwards announced their candidacy near the beginning of September,
2003, so let's only count votes before then. From January, 2003, to August, 2003,
Senator Edwards didn't vote 69 out of 320 opportunities (~22%) and Senator Kerry
didn't vote 182 out of 320 opportunities (~57%). http://www.mwilliams.info/archives/001349.php
