Bush was back in Saudi Arabia today meeting with the King to make a second appeal for the oil-rich nation to increase its crude output. But again, instead of jawboning, Bush took the horse farm approach and failed once again:
The White House says Saudi Arabia’s leaders are making clear they see no reason to increase oil production until customers demand it.
President Bush was in the oil-rich country Friday to appeal to King Abdullah for greater production to help halt rising gas prices in the United States. […]
Bush was spending the day with Abdullah at his horse farm outside Riyadh, talking mostly out of public view over three tea services and two meals.

It is so sad to see an American President beg a Saudi King for oil. Not once but 4 times and still as the King smiles he says No. Dark Cheney thought he had it going on and asked the Saudi King to increase the oil and Cheney was sent him on his ass with nothing.
The Middle East Leaders know who the strongest Presidential candidate is and she wont get the job. So a smart investor will stick to investments with the Middle East as they will be making the big profits for at lease 4 more years.
