Panic or propaganda: Bush wants lower oil prices

Bush wants lower oil prices

7 minutes ago

WASHINGTON - With crude oil prices crossing $90 a barrel, the White House said Friday that President Bush would like to see prices lower.

At the same time, the White House played down the $90 mark. "There's no magic to any particular number like $90 a barrel, but obviously we would prefer oil prices lower," said deputy press secretary Tony Fratto.

"The president certainly would like to see the price of oil lower and would like to see us rely less on foreign sources of oil and reduce our dependence on all forms of oil," Fratto said. He called on Congress to enact Bush's program to expand the use of alternative fuels and cut gasoline use by 20 percent in 10 years.
