| Exxon-McCain '08: Now That's a Ticket I Can Support!! | | 2008-08-13 17:49:15 | | UPDATE 08/13/08: See below, I just made a new video on this subject.The Democratic National Committee, like Moveon.org, is seeking to woo its base of economic illiterates with a new John McCain attack ad. This new advertisement portrays John McCain as "Exxon John," who is in bed with Big Oil. It also blames the price of oil on the Oil companies themselves. Arguments like these can only work with people who have no understanding of how the world works.There is no other justification for this ad unless you believe that the base of your party are a bunch of mind-numb robots. In order to be persuaded by its message, one must believe that oil company profits are harmful for the American economy even when most middleclass pensions invest in oil companies. One must also believe that the oil companies are responsible for the price of oil when Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid continue to make it illegal to drill.It is interesting how the politicians, the people who are truly responsible for de | | By: Copious Dissent - Your Daily Dose of Liberty | | |
| | Exxon Profits Vindication: What The Media/Congress ISN'T Telling You | | 2008-08-03 15:55:00 | | If too many people see these numbers, Glenn Beck's joking ideal of "pitchforks and torches" could become a reality. Or what would be more accurately described as, Congress and the media's worst nightmare coming to life. We've all heard the rants, over and over from Reid and Pelosi of how Big Oil is EVIL. We've all witnessed the "Record Profits!" banners splashed across the news screens.But it looks as if our "fair & balanced" media, (and the Dem's they've been supporting,) haven't quite been telling us everything we should be told when it comes to Exxon's "Record Profits."Author Mark J. Perry writing for the istockanalyst.com site, brings some much needed light to the issue that is certain groups' bias regarding oil companies. In his article entitled, Exxon's Record Capital and Exploration Spending published yesterday (Aug. 2nd, 2008) a very different story is told regarding dollar amounts.Oh, the "evil capitalists record profits" are still there to be sure.

| | Exxon Mobil exiting gas station business | | 2008-06-14 12:17:00 | | With gas prices as high as they are, it might seem hard to believe that some gas companies aren't profitable, but apparently Exxon Mobil isn't doing as well as they might wish. The company just announced that it will be selling off its gas stations for financial reasons. We suspect that the industry keeps itself shrouded in mystery to protect its profit at times, but Exxon Mobil, Chevron and ConocoPhillips, to name a few, have all stated that certain nebulous factors in the supply, demand and refinery process have led to a steep drop in profitability. You know, dozens of billions instead of hundreds. To that end Exxon, for one, is shedding its stations.Included in the sale will be the company's namesake gas stations. The retail group includes 820 self-operated stations and about 1,400 dealer managed outlets. The company wants suitors to know that this isn't desperation and that it will take at least a few years to finalize any sale. Because of the way the competition reacts to moves l | | By: Car News | | |

| Video: Un tigre al acecho, la verdad sobre Exxon Mobil | | 2008-02-16 21:18:01 | | La trasnacional Exxon Mobil, heredera del imperio Rockefeller es la compañía petrolera privada más importante del mundo y sólo en el año 2004, declaró beneficios por más de 25 mil millones de dólares. Actualmente, la trasnacional norteamericana se enfrenta a Venezuela y a su empresa petrolera pública Pdvsa, por su decisión soberana de nacionalizar las inmensas reservas petroleras de la Faja del Orinoco.
Este documental recorre la historia de Exxon Mobil, desde su nacimiento bajo el impulso de John Rockefeller, hasta su implicación en la invasión de Irak. El documento revela entre otras cosas que en el año 2007 Exxon Mobil ganó 73 mil dólares por minuto, 4 mil 400 millones por hora y 106 mil millones al día. "Un viejo tigre empresarial en la jungla de intereses económicos, políticos y militares", como lo dice su realizador, Wiliam Parra.

| | Exxon Mobil cuestiona el derecho de los estados a decidir sobre su petroleo | | 2008-02-16 17:10:10 | |
Este derecho al ejercicio soberano de la administración por los estados de sus recursos naturales está reconocido desde 1962 por Naciones Unidas, que reconoce las legislaciones nacionales y los intereses nacionales por encima de cualquier interés particular. La disputa entre Exxon Mobil y Venezuela debe ser la última batalla entre estos dos conceptos, a partir de las acciones legales tomadas por el país suramericano como vía para garantizar el control de sus propios recursos naturales.
El litigio internacional de la estadounidense Exxon Mobil contra Venezuela representa, en términos conceptuales, una batalla de principios sobre el derecho de las naciones a decidir sobre sus productos nacionales.

| | Bonos venezolanos se recuperan luego del impasse con Exxon | | 2008-02-14 08:22:00 | | Los precios de los bonos de Venezuela se recuperaban este jueves, tras haber caído la semana pasada por la noticia de que el gigante petrolero estadounidense Exxon Mobil Corp. había logrado que se congelen 12.000 millones de dólares en activos de la petrolera estatal PDVSA.Exxon pidió el congelamiento, en un esfuerzo por garantizar el pago ante la posibilidad de que gane un caso de arbitraje por la nacionalización de su participación en un proyecto multimillonario venezolano de crudo pesado llamado Cerro Negro."El mercado general está más firme hoy, con las acciones estadounidenses subiendo y eso ha agitado a los vendedores en corto. Venezuela, por tener la 'beta" (volatilidad) más alta en el mercado, reacciona más que otros, bien sea al alza o a la baja, y hoy esta en alza," dijo un operador de un banco alemán en Nueva York.La deuda de Venezuela se encuentra entre las más volátiles de los mercados emergentes.El bono de referencia de Venezuela 2034 denominado en dólares c | | By: Cotización Dolar Paralelo en Venezuela | | |
| | Exxon Mobil Seeks Compensation from Chavez | | 2008-02-12 15:23:00 | | The recent move by Venezuela's socialist leader Hugo Chavez to nationalize the energy sector has prompted some of the companies to seek compensation, Exxon Mobil in a stunning move took the battle to court.The state run company PDVSA is barred from selling assets and Venezuela cannot withdraw $300 million from a US bank account, such a move could prevent Chavez from spending money of his so called 'social projects'.An energy expert named Dino Barajas said "It makes the actions you took a year ago fairly pricey," referring to Chavez. | | By: Forex Days - All about the currency market | | |

| | ALASKA: Exxon Mobil loses Alaska pipeline ruling | | 2007-07-28 19:20:00 | | A federal appeals court today rejected an effort by Exxon Mobil Corp. to overturn rules governing access to a potential multibillion-dollar pipeline that would transport natural gas from Alaska to the Lower 48 states. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit upheld Federal Energy Regulatory Commission rules published in 2005 that were designed to give Alaskan energy suppliers the ability to deliver their fuel through pipelines they don't own. Natural gas producers, including Woodlands-based Anadarko Petroleum Corp., were concerned that access to the proposed 3,600-mile pipeline would be limited by the companies building it. Alaska has struggled for decades to get a deal either with North Slope gas producers or independent pipeline companies to build a line that could possibly run from the North Slope through Canada and into the Midwest. A proposed deal between former Alaska Gov. Frank Murkowski and North Slope producers BP, Exxon Mobil and ConocoPhillips fell ap | | By: energy BLOG | | |
| | | | AMERICA: Exxon Oil Exploration Chief McGill to Retire July 31 | | 2007-06-17 12:33:00 | | Exxon Mobil Corp. oil exploration chief Stuart McGill, who oversaw the company's largest business during the most profitable years in Exxon history, will retire July 31. McGill, 64, manages the company's exploration and production subsidiary and is a member of the five-person committee, along with Chief Executive Officer Rex Tillerson, that directs day-to-day operations. Irving, Texas-based Exxon Mobil posted a $39.5 billion profit last year, the largest ever for a U.S. corporation, surpassing the old record set by Exxon in 2005. McGill's replacement has not been determined, spokesman Mark Boudreaux said in an e-mail. The company announced McGill's retirement today in a statement distributed via Business Wire. Mark Albers, 50, was promoted in April to senior vice president, the same rank as McGill, and is overseeing some of the subsidiaries in McGill's portfolio.
