The oil crisis is simple to fix. Raise rates so the dollar goes up in value.

if either side wants to be honest with the american voter, you have to tell them it will hurt for a while, but stronger dollar and investment in alt energy is the best solution for short and long term.

I'd like to see Obama do whatever he needs to do to get in
He needs to fight a lot dirtier and start blasting McNut, exposing the uncontrollable and unpredictable side.
Imagine McNut cursing out other world leaders.

Beats putting in another fringe lunatic who's doing nothing but running another smear campaign
It's a rather pressing matter this time
You really think that nut can do any good other than helping the R party and trying to maintain status quo?

If high oil is killing the economy, why not invest the money in the replacement - how 'bout alternative energy?

Ultimately the people are to blame for electing people they shouldn't..

Exactly.

But how do you deal with the cognitive dissonance, when the same people, who voted for Bush, can't seem to stop sucking the same eggs that got us here, and will do it again?
