    This must be the new trend among the liberal idiots that are in congress...First Nancy P wants to sue Pres. Bush over the war, and now they want to sue OPEC over high oil prices....what a crock. How about they actually pass a bill that would allow more drilling in alaska and the gulf of mexico, and then we wouldn't have to be dependent on foreign oil.

    and I thought only our politicians were stupid :rolleyes:.

    It's their oil... they will produce as much as they want.

    If anyone doesn't like the price..he should stop using oil.

    You have to admit the idea of OPEC brings about a huge responsibility... artifically incresasing/decreasing the supply/demand of oil means billions of dollars of deviation.

    that's stupid. you can't sue someone for having too high prices. It's their right to sell what they have at whatever price they want. And besides, at what court ar they going to sue them?

    Which court of law? As I know many companies are moving out from US to avoid costly litigation.
