Oil up the ass!

King Fahd of Saudi Arabia died so the oil market reacts by hiking the price of crude oil to over $62 per barrel. Did the king excrete crude (oil that is) from his Royal Rectum? Heaven help us if the Crown Prince should get genital warts! For years we’ve heard that the Saudis have “oil up the ass,” but I didn’t want to take it literally.
Will there really be less petroleum available due to his death? More likely is the ugly truth that the hogs that run the oil industry actively look for excuses to raise prices. Theirs is a culture of greed; the culture in which Gee Dubya Bush was weaned. The members of that culture have shown through their behavior that their culture is decidedly anti Christ-like in principle. Our president's affinity to that culture shows the hypocrisy that he revels in.
