“Chu: DOE working to wean U.S. off oil, not lower prices”

Another government idiot who knows absolutely nothing about Oil or the petrochemical industry and it’s impact on our modern way of life.

Another statement “Our addiction to oil” is also an illustration of a know nothing president.

We are carbon based life forms living on a carbon based planet using carbon based energy that is responsible for our modern way of life and has brought that way of life to the most people in world history.

High energy prices: you’ll get used to them.

Now go pay your taxes - your government is broke. :)

The Energy Department isn’t working to lower gasoline prices directly, Secretary Steven Chu said Tuesday after a Republican lawmaker scolded him for his now-infamous 2008 comment that gas prices in the U.S. should be as high as in Europe.

In the meantime while waiting for this pie in the sky outlook to happen those who view oil products as bad can live their example by walking to places they need to go, heat their homes with sunlight, pedal drive to generate electrical, etc. in the meantime and until they start doing these things as a shining example STFU.,

Oil is the most efficient source of energy available at
present. Economic logic requires it’s continued use!

The words of Steven Chu are getting out to the masses.
Obama owns the high gas prices we see in the country today.

On behalf of the eventual GOP nominee, I would like to thank this dumbass for doubling down on his desire to increase prices at the pump.

Since the high gas prices are the fault of Bush/Congressional Republicans/Big Oil, when is Chu going to thank them, on behalf of Obama, for advancing the Administration’s alternate fuel agenda?

Going to be great when we lose wars because our tanks, ships and planes ran out of algae.

*******

Presidential election day Nov. 2012: Before voters go to their voting sites, many of them will first stop at the gas station to buy some gas.

If the gas price is $5 or more a gallon at the pump that day, I say that a lot of voters will be angry as they leave the gas station, and they may take out their anger and frustration in the voting booth and vote against Obama.

Looks like Obama’s “Chu-Chu Train” has gone around the deep bend.

If there is any pushing to be done and of who to push, perhaps it should begin in Washington with a shove into the Potomac.

Dang, that would be water pollution but still, it would be the solution. I know many, many times, I've posted about my grandfather being on Omaha Beach fighting people with the same ideology that we have in D.C. now. We need to re-enact the Normandy Invasion, right on the Potomac.

Silly bastard hasn’t got anything to replace oil with & is wondering why people want to hang his ignorant a$$ from the nearest tree or street light with a piano wire noose. Only a Phd. from a major University could be that stupid.
