you’re mistaken if you believe that high oil prices would distress President Obama. He has previously stated he does not mind high prices. What matters to him is how rapid the prices rise.
$4/gal gas by Memorial Day.
Happy days are here again,
the skies above are clear again.
crazy
wish someone would actually try to fix the problem
asol figures that the natural gas needed for a gallon of diesel, plus operating costs, comes to about $1.50 a gallon. In comparison, a gallon of diesel made from crude oil now costs more than $2, even before refining, and many forecasts are for the price of oil to go higher.

Brother, can you spare a dime?
If he cared we’d be drilling for our own.

Dime? Heck, with inflation, that should be a DOLLAR by now!....
Right. No mention of market speculators.
I wonder if the Wikileaks guys went long oil futures just before releasing this little tidbit.
VW, on Gizmag.com, has that beat w/ a 267 MPG coupe.
Why would the U.S counsel lie on a diplomatic cable to the State Department? Maybe Saudi Arabia is literally running out gas
Damned idiot Americans should use food as a weapon.
Let the mid east retards starve.
>> “Saudi Arabia cannot pump enough oil to keep a lid on prices” <<

But Bernanke can print enough monopoly money to put a solid floor under them! (and gold and silver...)

We will only move when our back is really against the wall. But a mass adoption of this will drastically lower oil prices
>> “Right. No mention of market speculators.” <<

Standard argument of the “give me something for nothing” liberal whinner.
Speculators have to have a basis for speculation, or it falls flat. Study Laffer.
You are correct; but if he gets his $4 gas,,, he won’t stand a chance in 2012. not that he should stand a chance anyway.

Yet, we convert food crops to alcohol at a time where there are food shortages, we don't build nuclear power plants, we prevent oil and gas exploration and drilling, and we haven't built a new oil refinery since 1975-1976.
WTH is wrong with America's common sense? If we developed our resources, we could be the NEW Saudi Arabia. The Arabs would be pounding sand. And, the Environazis would be absolutely suicidal [this is a good thing].
