It's the one area in which people can't take a joke. I can call someone's mother a whore and question his political views, and he'll defend his politics first.
I'm about as partisan as it comes (hell, I worked in Michigan politics for four years), but you won't see a single hint of it here. And why? Cause people flip their shit, one person calls another a communist, the other guy makes a Hitler reference, and the thread gets locked.

is running out of it. Say what you will about unrest in the middle east, speculation, and George W. Brilliant, but gas prices are higher on a regular basis because oil is actually becomming a scarse commidity. Listen, I am no Al Gore, but think of the oil supply as an ocean, sea levels are getting very low. Are we running out tomorrow, no. Should our children be concerned, absolulotely. The entire world needs to understand the problem and unite to find a common solution. It is very possible that oil prices could reach un-thought-of prices in the next decade. $10 per gallon = blood in the streets. It is the single biggest threat to our way of life and to a semi-peaceful existence between nations. Have you seen There Will Be Blood. The title of that moive is foreshadowing of things to come, and the film itself is symbolism for the net effect that oil and dependence on oil is having on a once sane world. Reliabile alternative forms of energy are a must, like, right now.

that is not why gas prices spiked in the last several weeks. I hear there are some shenanigans going on in the ME where the oil is; this has freaked out commodity traders, etc. Long term, the oil supply is finite, but the recent spike is not about scarcity.

And for the record, there's no such thing as a racist person who voted for Obama. So if you think that THAT's the reason why so many people voted for him, then you might want to look in the mirror before you label others.

Gas prices are high for a multitude of reasons including (in no order):
Opec, Libya, high demand, oil companies, politics, inflation
However, the idea that oil is running out is a farce. In fact, most reports show that nearly 90% of the world's oil has not even been touched yet, it still lies in the ground. I mean, it's not a good plan to rely on it, but it will be there.

Yes, we need to be working on alternative fuels.....not alternative ways of obtaining oil reserves.....we're at peak oil....the increases we see right now are the result of profit taking, speculation.....you're a nut if you think it has anything to do with democrats or republicans. It has to do with cash. It has to do with Goldman, BoA, etc.....God I wish it was football season

Project much?
The 2 year argument is a direct rebuttal of the above blame game statement. I don't believe my statement said to never build a new refinery but to blame the current admin is ludicrous, just as it would be to blame Bush. New refineries would have to have been started almost at the end of Clinton's tenure, but you know straw man away.
Also, if we had followed Jimmy C's advice years ago we would be energy independent. But, you know facts and things are funny.
