Sadly those idiots are setting us up for a war for oil. When the price does approach $10 a gallon and the economy is in free fall the country is going to demand a quick fix no matter what it takes.

But if the Dumblecrats are in control, which is what they are banking on, there will be no war.
Instead you will be demonized for being “greedy” and “selfish” for demanding lower fuel prices. Why, EU countries have paid this much for years, so suck it up and shut up.
[or words to that effect.]

I am waiting for that with fetid breath.

You KNOW its coming.

From “Three Days of the Condor” - They got the good guys and bad guys reversed.

Higgins: It’s simple economics. Today it’s oil, right? In ten or fifteen years, food. Plutonium. Maybe even sooner. Now, what do you think the people are gonna want us to do then?

Joe Turner: Ask them?

Higgins: Not now - then! Ask ‘em when they’re running out. Ask ‘em when there’s no heat in their homes and they’re cold. Ask ‘em when their engines stop. Ask ‘em when people who have never known hunger start going hungry. You wanna know something? They won’t want us to ask ‘em. They’ll just want us to get it for ‘em!
