The Dems have wanted the fuel crisis to happen for a LONG time

You're a spokesperson for the Dems now??

You can see it in their votes (as reinforced by the info posted the other day with the percentages of Dems and Repubs for and against various energy proposals.)

If the GOP is smart, they will hammer the energy issue hard in the upcoming election. A lot of ignorant folks think that Obambi and the Dems will "save them from the evil oil companies".

A series of commercials laying out the true facts of the current energy shortages (and sky rocketing prices) and detailing the Dems continuing stubborn refusal to allow this country to develop its resources could strike home, big time, if its done properly.

BTW, in regards to the corn situation, a significant part of this years crop won't be happening because of constant rains and flooding in the midwest. Crop shortages exacerbated by ethanol mandates = food prices heading much higher...
