The left is already blaming oil companies, the refineries, and speculators.

The Ticked Off Car Owner is a wind bag. Chris Matthews? What does this...this...person have to do with gas prices in California? The caller is typical, he knows something is wrong when he has trouble paying for gas, what happens when he has to make a choice between food and gas?
Or when he can’t get gas at any price because it’s being rationed?

California’s gasoline problems are not the result of crude shortages or general gasoline shortages but of a deliberate policy of creating unique blends and demanding the use of them.

If the price of gas was $10/gal. how many Californians would support more refinery capacity? Would the caller?

Denton, Texas. Just North of Dallas/Ft Worth and part of the metroplex. Small town feel in a city of 120,000 and very inexpensive compared to the East & West Coasts. Lots of nice homes under $200,000:

the highest recorded statewide price of $4.61, which was reached in June of 2008.

You all can stop picking on Colleyfornia any time now. I paid 4.65 a gallon in Chicago on September 19.

Yeah, all this crap about California is coming from people who think that wherever they are, they are safe from what’s happening here!

Yep. BTW they know what ever happens here happens there, or will happen there.

Ya get all these people fleeing from one area to another, thinking they can outrun whatever.....It don't work unless ya move to the boonies in the middle of nowhere....Not for me...I have no desire to drive 50 miles to work, the store, mall or whatever...

Remember...CA voters rejected the initiative DELAYING the implementation of the new global warming act...Arnold and his Dem buddies passed that law...

I am thinking that CA voters are so obsessed with environmentalism that they are willing to pay for high gas prices and reject more refineries...(Of course, I am not one of those people.)

“Yep. BTW they know what ever happens here happens there, or will happen there.”

This country would never have been birthed at all if some of those who now are trying to “escape” the creeping Marxism, were our “founding fathers.” They have been “dumbed down” too, to think that “fleeing the scene” is preferable to “ standing and fighting.” At the end of the day, with that thought process, should it be the prevalent one, we will cease to exist, at least as the stellar place that was created by our founders. They talk about the Republicans “having no balls!”
Well, I submit that they lost their testicles somewhere along the way too!
