If they didn't have the balls to refuse to fund the Iraq war to force Bush to withdraw, then they certainly won't have the balls to increase gas taxes, which will increase the cost of gas for poor Americans from 12% of their take home pay to 16% of their take home pay. It's a tough sacrifice to ask for. That's why I say you tax (or give an incentive to) the energy client instead of taxing the energy. If you choose to drive an SUV (and screw your fellow citizens in the process) you should pay for the privilege. If you choose to drive an efficient vehicle like a hybrid, which helps your fellow citizens, you should be rewarded with a rebate. Taxing gasoline hurts everyone.
