Price of Oil

[Plane]

Is it time to buy the dip in oil -- and oil stocks? Oil prices are down about 35% from their highs of July 2006, and oil stocks have pulled back some in 2007.

A gas station in Omaha, Neb., will be the first to offer "terror-free oil and gas," which comes from non-terrorist-sponsoring nations. Would you buy it if it was available near your home?

Do you mean crude oil futures or stock in petroleum companies?

(I wonder if Ford stock is worth buying )

Welll, I deliberately do not purchase oil from Citgo.

Is this the time to give windfall profit rebates?

===================================
Er, no.
Being as no windfall profits taxes were charged, rebates are sort of out of the picture.

Oil companies are still making out like the bandits they are, anyway.

Actually, Ford is probly a much better buy than the greasy oil cos right now. The old adage is "buy on the bad news and sell on the good." All the bad news is probly  out now on Ford while the oil thieves good news  is over.

Actually, most reputable stock analysts say you should stay away from Ford. The WSJ, and others, recently indicated they do not feel Ford will come out of it. They are cutting jobs but not the way they do business. And the latter is the only way they will be truly successful.

Oil firms benefit form the invisible hand of the marketplace. It is one of the major tenes upon which this nation was built. If you do not like their practices, then adjust your spending.

To tax them is basically peanalizing them for playing the game well.

The fact that nearly everyone is negative is exactly why one might want to buy F It is when things look the most bleak that bottoms occur.. Whoever was going to sell has.

Oil cos play the game well because they currently have it rigged by their Bushadmenstruation lackeys. The game will change now that the Dems are in resurgence.

Those who bought Chrysler back in the 1980's came out ahead. Ford might be taken over by GM or some foreign company, but I really don't think they will go under.

I buy mutual funds. If it is a good investment, a MF manager will buy it.

Can you explain how non-binding resolutions will "change the game"?

Len Singer, 74, who traveled 300 kilometers (180 miles) to join the demonstration, called the timing of the protest, just weeks after opposition Democrats took control of Congress, a "window of opportunity" to force the Republican US administration's hand.

"If the Democrats squander this time period, they'll never have another chance again," he said.

Medea Benjamin, founder of the women's peace organization CodePink, said the non-binding resolution passed by a powerful Senate committee Wednesday was not enough for the protesters.

The resolution says the Bush plan is "not in the national interest" and calls on the United States to "transfer, under an appropriately expedited timeline, responsibility for internal security and halting sectarian violence in Iraq to the government of Iraq and Iraqi security forces."

"It's good, but it's not enough," Benjamin said.
