That will certainly be a millstone around Baraq’s neck come election time. To me it’s a classic case of chickens coming home to roost, because this is exactly what liberals want to force us out of private cars, but are too gutless too pass taxes to accomplish overtly.

Of course to the MSM it will be all due to greedy big oil.

And the subsequent calls to nationalize it.

They will never be able to pull that one off.

Too much anti-drill/refine regulation from zero and his admin.

America has in the past been asleep, but we're awake now, aware and more are getting pissed off each day.

I have a local EXXON charging 3.25.9 .. I see no line to buy gas.

I go in town for 3.09

No. It’s greedy OPEC and greedy Saudi Arabia. The oil companies don’t set the barrel price. Neither does a cartel-ized marketplace. The sooner we take out the Middle Eastern caliphates that continue to hold the U.S. hostage to insane oil prices, instead of bowing down to them, selling them our best fighter aircraft, and pretending they are our allies, the better off we will be.

I forgot the anti-nuclear lobby and the environmentalists who share a large part of the blame for where we are on energy today. We have both hands tied behind our backs: On the one hand, we refuse to drill domestically, and on the other we refuse to use the nuclear technology we pioneered so many years ago, to wean us from our fatal dependence upon our enemies in the Middle East and South America for the oil that our oil companies must purchase.

Just the opposite.

I have seen this play many times. It will be blamed on the Republicans and the clamor will be "to bring prices down, put the dems back in charge"

and the media will beat the drums for them.
