Lee F. Raymond, Exxon Mobil For Leading Exxon to Its Riches, $144,573 a DayLee R. Raymond, who retired from Exxon in December, was paid more than $686 million from 1993 to 2005.

Now, how on earth are two multinationals like Exxon and Shell supposed to work together considering the following statements of their directors: "That's not the way we do business" has Raymond's answer always been to questions of many different parties and groups world-wide on possible options other than ExxonMobil's fundamental 'cheap oil' strategy. Recently however, ExxonMobil under Tillerson now is seemingly trying to catch up on public exposure regarding the growing CO2 problem related to global warming - always and categorically denied and played down by Lee Raymond. "That's the way we do business" was John Hofmeister's answer to recent questions during public debate here in Houston -November 2006, mediated by Loren Steffi of the Houston Chronicle, about Shell's willingness to listen to and act upon public concerns. To my point of view especially global warming and further development of sustainable energy projects since Shell has taken a lot of efforts to overcome negative exposure since the South-African protests of the 70's. Not to be taken too serious since we all know that the SEC favoured Shell with a minor fine of $150 million for very, very serious and structural stand-alone reserves-miscalculations. However... the big question remains how these opposite standpoints cope with due collaboration within the world's biggest public-private partnership 'Nederlandse Gasunie' and influence EU, Saudi-Arabian (OPEC), U.S., Russian and Chinese foreign energy policies - to name just some major players - and international diplomacy... but even more pregnant: how to counter the global 'Big Drift' evolving before our eyes, orchestrated by the only remaining superpower by imposing arrogance upon us as a natural given. The SEC being a Fed derivative should better co-operate with DOJ and FBI for national & international security reasons, we think, and therefore will take the FBI to their most importent and imposing task to investigate global crime rooted in world-wide 'incorporated governance' since 1963 when the international 'Nederlandse Gasunie' was founded: project 'Gasroot', formerly dubbed 'Gasgate 1963'.

Exxon Task Force ... taking the FBI to task with real time acts.
Consumer/Citizen Complaint filed with the Attorney General of Texas, November 13, 2006, regarding structural misconduct du to global industrial dominance since 1963 and rigging the world energy sector to dominate international diplomacy (Gasgate 1963) -called the global Complexxon- whereas the Enron trial and error did not answer fundamental questions of ethics and conduct as ment to be addressed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act which for the same reason of 'incorporated governance' is actually being watered down due to overall public and private governing incompetence. Same but combined complaint against ExxonMobil and the United States regarding structural incorporated governance due to lax, ignorant and corrupt government inducing judicial attention disorder was filed with the United States Attorney General, November 16, 2006.

Communications of April 19, 2004 from the U.S. Attorney's Office:
The world's most aggressive corporation now devastating the earth and life as well, once started as a humble enterprise. Exxon's global impact on crime, climate change and world stability: www.worldoutofbalance.org video March 30, 2006The New Face of ExxonThis NY Times article profiles new ExxonMobil CEO Rex W. Tillerson, who succeeded Lee Raymond three months ago. Although Exxon's core strategy will not change under Tillerson's leadership, the article notes that Tillerson's style is definitely different from that of the notoriously serious Raymond. At a recent news conference, Tillerson was asked what he thought would happen to oil prices this year: "If I knew," Tillerson quipped. "I'd be living on a Caribbean island with my flip-flops and a laptop, working just two hours a day." Posted by Tom at 6:35 AM | Comments (0) | TrackBack (0) Energy Task ForceFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaIn his second week in office George W. Bush created the task force, officially known as the National Energy Policy Development Group (NEPDG) with Dick Cheney as chairman. This group was supposed to “develop a national energy policy designed to help the private sector, and, as necessary and appropriate, State and local governments, promote dependable, affordable, and environmentally sound production and distribution of energy for the future." On May 16, the NEPDG released its final report which can be found at http://www.whitehouse.gov/energy/National-Energy-Policy.pdf [edit] ControversyWith both Bush and Cheney coming from the energy industry, which had contributed heavily to their campaign, and with the group proceeding in extreme secrecy, critics charged that the energy industry was exercising undue influence over national policy. Congressmen Henry Waxman and John Dingell prompted the General Accounting Office (GAO), the investigative arm of Congress, to pursue Congress's oversight authority. Eventually the GAO filed a lawsuit known as Walker v. Cheney against the administration. This represented a power struggle between the legislative and executive branches. Judge John D. Bates, a recent Bush appointee, dismissed the case but did not rule on the Executive Privilege issue. Most of the activities of the Energy Task Force had not been disclosed to the public, even though Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests (since 19 April 2001) have sought to gain access to its materials. The organisations Judicial Watch and Sierra Club launched a law suit (U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia: Judicial Watch Inc. v. Department of Energy, et al., Civil Action No. 01-0981) under the FOIA to gain access to the task force's materials. On 5 March 2002 the US Government was ordered to make a full disclosure; this has not happened, pending appeal. In the Summer of 2003 a partial disclosure of these materials was made by the Commerce Department. This resulted in the release of documents, maps, and charts, dated March 2001, of Iraq's, Saudi Arabia's and United Arab Emirates' oil fields, pipelines, refineries, tanker terminals and development projects. That case eventually went to the Supreme Court and the ruling was to send the case back to the Court of Appeals. On April 4, 2001, representatives of 13 environmental groups, including Erich Pica of Friends of the Earth and Anna Aurilio of the U.S. Public Interest Group, met with the Task Force (although not with Vice President Cheney personally). [1] Environmental groups have speculated that this meeting was an attempt to appease them, since it is reported that a draft paper had already been produced at the time of this meeting and that half of the meeting was spent on various members introducing themselves. No further meetings between the task force and the environmental groups were reported, although there had been at least 40 meetings between the task force and representatives of the energy industry and its interest groups [1] The Washington Post reported on November 15, 2005 that it had obtained documents detailing how executives from major oil corporations, including Exxon-Mobil Corp., Conoco, Royal Dutch Shell Oil Corp., and the American subsidiary of British Petroleum met with Energy Task Force participants while they were developing national energy policy. Vice President Cheney was reported to have met personally with the Chief Executive Officer of BP (formerly British Petroleum) during the time of the Energy Task Force's activities. In the week prior to this article revealing oil executive involvement, the Chief Executives of Exxon-Mobil and ConocoPhillips told members of the US Senate that they had not participated as part of the Energy Task Force, while the CEO of British Petroleum stated that he did not know. Regardless of whether the executives were under oath, if these statements were knowingly and materially false and deceptive then they were illegal per the The Fraud and False Statements statute (18 U.S.C. 1001) [2]. In response to questions regarding the article, Cheney spokesperson Lea Ann McBride was quoted as saying that the courts have upheld "the constitutional right of the president and vice president to obtain information in confidentiality." [3] On July 18, 2007, the Washington Post reported the names of those involved in the Task Force, including at least 40 meetings with interest groups, most of them from energy-producing industries. Among those in the meetings were James J. Rouse, then vice president of Exxon Mobil and a major donor to the Bush inauguration; Kenneth L. Lay, then head of Enron Corp.; Jack N. Gerard, then with the National Mining Association; Red Cavaney, president of the American Petroleum Institute; and Eli Bebout, an old friend of Cheney's from Wyoming who serves in the state Senate and owns an oil and drilling company.[1] [edit] References
