Dick to Saudis

The American oil man in his natural place! Vice-President Dick Cheney has met Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah to discuss ways of stabilizing the oil market. US officials said there was "a lot of commonality" in the talks in Riyadh on the way to move forward in the global energy market.

Of course there is, Dick is an expert! Oil prices have risen about 16% this year, but the oil producers' cartel, Opec, has declined to raise output. The big question is if Dick remembered that his travel to the emirates was not paid from an oil company!
