They could also ask whether war is the only option for getting Iran into line.

Well, right now, we're not pursuing the option of war, we're exhausting diplomacy and talks with Iran down to the last drop. So far, it's not working, but we are trying our best.

The option of striking them should always be kept on the table, no matter what, just in case. But at the moment we're desperately trying to reason with them.

gas averages $2.85 a gallon.

In San Diego it's 43 cents higher on average right now ($3.28 / gallon).

"In San Diego it's 43 cents higher on average right now.."

What does a 3 bedroom, two bath house with a pool on 3/4 acre cost?

Yep. It's cheaper than it was in the early 1980's when benchmarked for inflation. This so-called energy Secretary calls this a crisis? Gime me a break. Gas lines in the 70s was getting towards a crisis but even that was manageable. It was dealt with it with less whining in my area of the woods than I hear now from the softies coming up the ranks now.
