He pointed out that the experts attribute the higher price of petroleum to several things such as rising consumption in China or the increasing use of reserves in the US.
Anyone have an idea what "increasing use of reserves" he is talking about?

Only one country with the ability to go after new oil reserves is not doing so. And its a direct result of the 1060s, “I hate America” crowd now taking on the environmental cause. Strangle America, force the economy into recession and do all you can to destroy the country.

Brazil is not run by the kind of complete, flaming *ssholes found in the US Congress.
Reid/Pelosi are the worst congressional leaders in American history. To be turbocharged in their mega-incompetence and freezer full of cash corruption should Hussein ever seize the Presidency.
The reason Brazil is soon to be self sufficient in oil and we are not:

"Anyone have an idea what "increasing use of reserves" he is talking about? " I take it that he means that we are increasingly using up our known reserves. Just my opinion though.

That will take years.
Liberals say anything that takes years should not be pursued.

He sure as heck can’t mean we’re using the US oil reserves.

"In Lula's opinion, the stand by US Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama against purchasing Brazilian ethanol and John McCain's stand in favor of it are just part of an election strategy."I'm FAR more interested in McCain's call to open OUR OWN oil fields offshore. However, I like the Brazilian president. He seems to be a very smart man.

I thought Brazil was the country that developed sugarcane ethanol several decades ago so it wouldn’t need gasoline anymore.
To: thackney
Brazil is the world’s new superpower.
To: thackney
Perhaps they will sell us some cheap ethanol once they can afford fill their tanks with straight gas.

It’ll take a long time to come on line. They really shouldn’t bother. It’ll be too tough to get at. They could have a spill. People will just use the oil.
