Our Saudi friends just can't win 

"The American Thinker" on 10 March 2004:

"Saudi Arabia has launched an undeclared war on George W. Bush... [b]y using the 'oil weapon' to torpedo the American economy over the next eight months, and thereby weaken electoral support for George W. Bush’s candidacy in November... By restricting OPEC output since the end of hostilities in Iraq, the Saudis have forced oil prices up over the past several months."

Associated Press on 21 April 2004:

"The Saudi ambassador to the United States on Wednesday denied any linkage between the U.S. presidential election campaign and a Saudi pledge to the Bush administration to push for lower oil prices."
