ed from AZ (not verified) says:
FROM MSNBC First Read 5/3/08.
— Clinton’s O’Reilly Flub? During her Bill O’Reilly interview and in a press release issued earlier this week, Clinton pledged to use the WTO as a way to pressure OPEC nations on the price of oil. But the WTO explicitly exempts energy and there are some who argue that if WTO did get involved in energy, it would only benefit the major oil companies.
.
Bottom line, it’s not clear Clinton is dealing in reality on this issue since there really isn’t a legal process to use the WTO to attack OPEC, but it sure sounds good, right?
.
O’Reilly never followed up with her on this issue, perhaps he didn’t know about the energy exemption in the WTO. No doubt Clinton will have to answer for this the next time she’s grilled on this inconsistency. Folks who really understand this issue expressed concern that Clinton so easily talked about this as a viable option when it is apparently not.
