ExxonMobil CEO and chairman Rex Tillerson defended his company’s staggering $11.7 billion in profits for the second quarter

“I can understand why people are very upset and why they’re very worried and concerned about their ability to deal with these high prices,” Tilberson said “It does bother me that much of that is directed at us. Our job is to provide energy, to provide it in a means that is reliable. And we hope we can provide it in a means that’s convenient as well to the consumer.”

 

I do feel for the guy. His poor company is villafied and all he has to show for it was $120,000,000.00 personal income for 2007

    That’s called……”capitalism”. He has a company that makes A LOT OF MONEY. You can do the same.

  2. mike w. says:

    DJK – Didn’t you know, here on DL capitalism and “excessive profits” are evil. Capitalism is a bad word. Only the government can rake in excessive profits legitimately through taxation of the rich.

    And when the Obama’s make money they’re elitist.

  4. let’s see

    I put up a post about a CEO whining about the bad reputation he has

    and guess what happens.

    DJK again missess the point. And then dickwad attaches to DJK, kisses his ass and tries to make a friend….

    “And when the Obama’s make money they’re elitist”

    And who here has made the argument that money make Obama (or anyone else) elitist? I know I haven’t.

    “and guess what happens….”

    Hey look, It’s DTB throwing another useless ad hominem at me again. As usual he’s got nothing else to add.

  7. nothing ad hominem about that one Mikey. totally directed at you.

  8. mike w. says:

    Which of course shows you’d rather act like a petulant little child and levy personal attacks at me than actually make a substantive comment.

    You continue to open your mouth and prove yourself to be nasty, rude, childish, and ignorant.

  9. you are so freaking gullible little fella

  10. You continue to open your mouth and prove yourself to be nasty, rude, childish, and ignorant.

    ask anyone around and they will tell you it is all true

    and

    that I don’t care

  11. mike w. says:

    Why the inability to engage in substantive debate DTB? Is it some personality defect of yours? And why do so many DE Liberal contributers share your inability and your penchant for personal attacks?

  12. so it must not be as bad as you make it sound huh

  13. mike w. says:

    So you concede that you and your ilk have nothing to offer but obfuscation and personal attacks? Not that the answer isn’t obvious from reading your posts & comments, but it’s nice to see you flat out admitting it.

    When you come over to my blog or Robb’s to fling your attacks & ad hominems you’ve got no other children to run to your aid and namecall with you. We tear you apart calmly and logically, you get pissy and fling a few insults, and then you leave the debate entirely because you’ve got no substantive argument whatsoever and can’t back up any claims you attempt to make.

  14. I concede nothing. I concede we must have something to offer otherwise your house bound butt wouldn’t be here 20 hours a day.

    we’ve got mojo baby. We have people that debate you. We have people that crush you. You lose time and again. Yet, keep coming back for more.

    so again, I say, we must have something. You don’t go eat at a restaurant over and over if you can’t stand the food.

  15. mike w. says:

    You “crush my arguments” Man, your “definition” of crush must be akin to your definition of “rights,” “facts,” or “ban”

    To “crush” them you’d actually have to address my arguments with salient, logical counterarguments that factually and systematically refuted my points.

    You respond with “you suck” “you’re wrong” “You’re a (insert derogatory term here”) You’re not crushing my arguments, you’re not even hitting a dribbler down the 1st base line.

  16. pandora says:

    Still comes here? Hell, DV, Mike thinks he’s a contributor. He just told Jadegold and TT not to comment here anymore.

  17. quite honestly I could do without TT too

  18. mike w. says:

    “Still comes here? Hell, DV, Mike thinks he’s a contributor. He just told Jadegold and TT not to comment here anymore.”

    I told him to quit commenting until he could do so without insulting me. I have every right to make that request, whether you like it or not.

  19. mike w. says:

    “we’ve got mojo baby. We have people that debate you. We have people that crush you. You lose time and again.”

    You’re living in an alternate reality if you believe any of the BS you just said.

  20. pandora says:

    Umm… then Mike why are you here? Admit it, you want to hang out with the “cool” kids! 🙂

  21. mike w. says:

    If you folks are “cool” I’d hate to see what the “uncool” liberals are like……

    I’m here so that the ignorance and bigotry spouted in what was your echo chamber does not go unquestioned and unchallenged.

    Someone has to prove you wrong and highlight your bigotry and intolerance.

    Plus I find you folks amusing, albeit I do feel sorry for you.

  22. pandora says:

    And yet you have to be our number one commenter… so what does that tell you?

  23. mike w. says:

    It tells me you spew a whole hell of a lot of bullshit on this blog.
