It's understandable, you are having an emotional reaction because youa re personally effected. BUT, the truth is we NEED oil and we need oil to not be at $10 a gallon. We can't give Ø the support he needs to turn us into Scandinavia which is exactly hat he seeks to do. We have to remain somewhat objective about this. I hope your worst case scenarios do not come to pass but if they do we can't allow it to give him a pass to lock down our energy.

Already CNN international is asking whether Obama will see this "as an opportunity to finally reign in American energy consumption which is, per capita, staggeringly higher than the rest of the world"...

I agree, ABSOLUTELY NOT~!! and we know he never let’s a crisis go to waste. It wouldn’t surprise me if this was sabotage to achieve his goals and I’m serious. Whatever the cause, it’s still a disaster for the Gulf Coast states, but do you think he cares? He hates those Bible loving gun clingers anyway. He’s probably fist bumping that big fat Wookie and high fiving Al Gore.

Of course he will....is there any question? Never let a “crisis” go to waste, right? I’m still expecting a ‘truthers’ group to develop on this one. I’m not so sure that this Administration wouldn’t create such a crisis in order to get exactly what they want....whatever it takes.
