Ok, it doesn't quite belong here, but I think you Oil Slick fans will love this. Global warming is the fault of Developed countries (us oil producers aren't to blame, no no)! Boycott the Dollar and bring down the U.S.! :p

If this really is him, oh how the mighty Bin Laden has fallen, this is the sort of blah blah blah we get from North Korea.

Yes we are to blame because our country was prosperous and viable, and they were not!:nuts:
 
The US is probably responsible for glabal warning because it is one of our great politicians that champions the perpetual pushing forward of the idea!

Exxon Mobil profits fall 23% in fourth quarter

The results were ahead of analysts' forecasts

US oil giant Exxon Mobil has reported a 23% drop in profits, but the result was better than many analysts had expected. Exxon made a net profit of $6.05bn (£3.8bn) in the fourth quarter of 2009, compared with the $7.82bn it made in the same period in 2008.
Weak demand for fuel in the global economic slowdown hurt the company's refining business.
In the whole of 2009, Exxon made a profit of £19.28bn, less than half of what it made in 2008.
Shares in Exxon Mobil rose 1.9% to $65.67 when trading began in New York. [more]
