With all the media coverage of gas prices, why hasn't there been  
hardly ANY of the media, of ANYthing about:

[1] the still-secret meeting between Cheney and his Big Oil  
supporters, shortly after the Supreme Court elected him, and

[2] the seemingly near-perfect comparison of manipulation of  
electrical-power prices, shortly after Bush-Cheney were elected, by  
Bush's long-time friends and supporters at Enron ... and the current  
"uncontrollable" manipulation of oil and fuel prices now ... in  
commodities trading systems where 80%-90% or it is completely secret  
and unregulated?

(Could this total lack of mention be another one of those vile "media  
conspiracies" which Republicans and their pundits are so fond of  
mentioning?)
