We can't drill our way out of this problem.

Bushie fat cats control the oil markets, from Saudi Arabia to Houston and inbetween. Also, Bush's war creates a spike in prices, especially since it's gone so badly. Bush allowing Iran and Palestine to fall into extremist hands jacks up prices. So does his saber rattling against Venezuela. And Bushie fighting to stop the CAFE Standards bill jacked up prices. So does the oil industry's deliberately limiting refining by trying to create artificial shortages.

Bush promised in 2000 to jawbone OPEC and bring down prices. He has done just the opposite. He has colluded in the biggest ripoff of all time. And proof if when Prince Bandar was quoted as offering to bring down prices for the 2004 election if Bush requested it. This proves Bush can affect prices any time he wants. So he lied about that too.

We need to fully regulate the oil business, tax and fine the guilty gougers and never allow an oilman near the White House again. Can you blame big oil for gouging with two of their own in charge and Delay-Barton in congress? It's a license to steal and boy have they ever been stealing.
