Bush warns Congress that gasoline buyers fed up

LOL. Maybe if those fed-up buyers would quit chugging it like a Massachusetts Senator, ...

The president outlined his four-point plan to reduce high energy prices: Promote conservation;

Good, very good.

produce and refine more crude oil in the United States;

Good, good...

develop alternative sources of energy, such as renewable ethanol or biodiesel;

Isn't it about time the ethanol industry unlatched itself from the public teat?

and help other nations, such as China, to become more energy-efficient to reduce global demand for energy.

ARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH! Help China?! What is it with this guy sometimes?

Let hippy libs conserve, I'm saving up for a Hummer. Now that we've got Iraq we shouldn't have to worry about oil for a good, long time.

Well, it makes sense... China is hording lots of the supply. If we could somehow make them more effecient. Why not? It would make Oil cheaper, thus gas cheaper

China? You mean that nation that has been building dozens of new warships to challenge us in the Pacific? Yes, I'm sure they would appreciate our help.

Isn't it time to rejuvenate the almost infinite resource for electricity...nuclear power? I don't know how much oil is used when nuclear power would be a nice clean substitute. Certainly some is.

He said it was time for the United States to expand its nuclear power capacity.

Well, I like two of the suggestions.

Not help China. Help China not have to guzzle oil so much. China isn't going to go away, much as that would be desired.

I finally filled up today, been putting it off. $2.51

Gasoline futures are $1.63 today, up 3 cents. Haliburton reached an annual high, some other oil and oilfield stocks also. Doesn't appear that anybody thinks oil will be coming down anytime soon.
