With the rising costs of flying, they’ll want to take over the airlines too. And btw - my natural gas bill and electricity bill have gone up. Are they going to propose having the gov’t take them over also?
Maybe they should get on the horn to Chavez, Khamenei, Putin, Kim Jung-il, etc and get some pointers.

This is the same bunch of clowns who can’t even run a restaurant, get anything done in Congress, or keep their hands out of the till. And we should trust them with this? Gas will cost us $100/gal. within a year.

I call for the recall of the Deomocrats calling for socialization of our oil comapnies.

Oh yeah that is the solution.... LOL!
How about the government does not get jack until they can run their own business responsibly to the tax payers. They can start with Social Security.

I wonder what is next, screeching and throwing their turds into the observation balcony? For some of them, that would mark an improvement in their behavior.

Flabbergasted.
A South American cartoon dictator couldn’t have come up with a better solution.

Before we do anything rash like nationalizing refineries, or a government-run single payer health care system, lets see how they do with a government run, single-payer legal system first. :-)

For some of them, that would mark an improvement in their behavior. If that is all that they did perhaps the grownups in the room could work on the multi-facetted total energy approach to actually solve the problem.

If they actually do this, or even continue to suggest it, it may well be time to grab our pitchforks and head to Washington DC. This idea is so dangerous, so destructive, that we should and must be willing to do whatever is necessary to stop it.

Here we go... The Federal Government is already 21% of the GDP ($3.2 trillion of $15 trillion). The Donks have already stated their desire to nationalize healthcare - another 15% of the GDP. And here we have another 15% - energy companies.
In effect, if Obama gets in office, you'll see nationalization of health and energy within the first two years, and the Federal Government essentially directly controlling 51% of the economy. We WILL be a Communist nation at that point, and the takeover will be complete.
The Central Government will be directly responsible for over half our GDP - one of every two dollars spent in this nation - effectively controlling the majority of this land, and you can bet the rules will be quickly gamed to keep the Donks in perpetual party as the Central Party.
Of course, a few FReepers can be smug in their knowledge that they "stuck to their principles" and didn't vote for McCain. Thank you, comrades!
