Bush went to Iraq for oil....now we are see the true cost.
3,500 dead & over 20,000 injured. 5-600,000 Iraqis dead and over 1,000,000 displced. Haliburton who owns Blackwater stabbing the American tax payer. Haliburton then moves it's headquarters to Dubai. The gall!!!!

The way to get the price down is to drill for oil, build refineries, and build nuclear power plants here in the US. Who blocks those things? Who wants to have people stop using SUV's? Who is always screaming about our energy usage?
Answer to all of the above is the Liberals.
They are getting what they want and then try to blame it on the president. What a wonderful method of thinking. Get what you want and blame it on somebody else.

I went by a Thrifty Gas station in Pomona, Ca where on Friday the price for unleaded regular was $4.79.
Now although I beleive in making a fair profit, I also believe that people have a right to make a decent living.
Where in the hell are the mass transit options out here?
People aren't going to be able to afford gas to get to work.
There are already people stealing gas.
Thanks Bush. Why couldn't you do something right in your life.

Sorry, folks, I've listen to these retards long enough. What I have found is they haven't got one man among them!
Go join a war, bury some good men, then get your ass back here and challenge my narly-ass -- if you got the nerve. Until that time, shut your Republican mouths. You are stinking this site to high heaven. MEATBALLS!

Gas usage in the U.S. went down 4.3% (11 billion gallons) in the first quarter of this year. I suspect that it will have gone down even further for the second quarter (compared to second qtr 2007). The biggest drop in usage since statistics were kept and it hasn't had any effect on the price.

In any true democracy, economic, financial and job market disasters like the one in US will result in the throwing of the government in power.
However in USA, it is not so. It appears that abortion, same sex marriage and the invasion and occupation of Iraq will decide the next government.
Who are these people who think these issues are more important while they are losing their homes, jobs and struggling to fill up gas tanks!!!!!!!!!!!!

Americans are in denial about oil. The reason prices are going up has to do with supply and demand. There isn't enough oil in the World (search on peak oil) and too much demand. Even opening up ANWAR and the off shore really wouldn't help much (although it wouldn't hurt) since those locations really don't have much oil when compared to World demand. For example, ANWAR has 15 billion bls, which sounds like a lot until compared to 85 million bls of demand a day in the World. And the only reason ANWAR is not in decline is political. If it had been opened 20 years ago, it would be in decline also. The politically closed areas are the only significant oil deposits in the US. After that, there isn't any more. The party is over.

It is the capitalistic economic system that manipulating and controlling is keeping the oil price up, it is the American policy in the Muslim world keeping the oil price up, it is the American weak dollar keeping the oil price up and it is the demand keeping the oil price up.

I think we're all missing the up shot here...just consider all those nasty restaurants we won't have to frequent any more. And we'll all finally be able to kick that Starbusks addiction...not to mention buying all the unnecessary electronic junk from Best Buy. We'll be so busy saving for a f$cking tank of gas, we'll be going cold and hungry. Anyone still believe the United States isn't a third world country? Just think how it would be if every government figure wasn't invested in oil, food, and pharmaceuticals. I wonder how the military feels, seeing what their efforts have brought this country, and seeing what they have to come home to...if they come home.

I have 2 things to add. First of all I am resigned to the fact that high gas prices are necessary in order that we make serious attempts to move away from oil (especially foreign oil) and move towards other energy alternatives.
the 2nd things is that I seriously think the present high price of oil will burst.
