They DON'T WANT prices to come down!

One of the most visible symbols of the freedom that Americans enjoy is the ability to jump in the car and drive wherever the hell they feel like. Whenever they feel like.

That is what they want to control.

High oil prices are most of the reason, but limited refinery capacity is another part. Of course it's hard to see how government efficiency is going reduce refining costs or produce more gasoline.

I think the democrats are angry with the oil companies because the oil companies made a pre-emptive spike in retail prices to get the jump on the "global warming fuel tax" that they see coming. Now the guvment cant spike fuel with a "save the earth tax" for quite a while because the retail price is maxxed out

har har ...if a nuke strike ever slips in, I hope it hits the hall of congress first
