Are we nearing a panic?

Chevron has a tanker named for Condi Rice.


Question: Are we near a panic?


I don't think so yet, but I think we're beginning to get nearer. One big problem, a Saudi coup, an Iranian shut down, a Nigerian strike, and we're deep in it.

And Mr. Bush, no matter what else you do, this could be your legacy. Not that the complete destruction of Iraq and the reduction of its oil exports have had anything to do with this. Democracy's on the move.

(I think this is Palo Alto, I'm sure it's California.)
