Do you think for one second these men care if they don't get "sympathy"?

It's all theatre folks. All the oilmen care is no one sets any laws or rules that limits their pricing. All the politicos care is they show us "they're concerned".

It's all endless, useless blather.

As usual,let's blame the oil companies!It amazes me that the first people to complain about gasoline prices are the democrats. We need to send a message to these liberals politicians and tell them if they want to go back to Washington, then they better quit accepting money from the WACKO environmentalist and to start allowing the oil companies to drill in ANWR and in the Gulf.

You are really brain washed if you believe there is a supply problem. How much money do you receive from the government each month Dave? Just like all the white trash republicans you all, always have to take every opportunity to bad mouth normal people with a sense of right and wrong.

Why bad mouth people who have worked hard and can pay for gas? Get another job or a better one and quit complaining!!!

People just aren't paying attention to whats happening. We need the oil refineries that were promised and the production of oil HERE!!!!!!! in the UNITED STATES!!!!! Then our prices would go down! They aren't allowing the refineries to be built, and we have oil in ALASKA that is our US property but we cannot use it, because we have to get it from the oher countries that are goughing us. While they pay .12 to .27 cents for their gas. We pay 3.99 Dig into whats really happening people. BP oil knows all about this.... and theres nothing we as american citizens can do about it.

Gotta get my MC running. Soon the US will be filled with people on scooters, MC's and bicycles. Just like China, Japan, etc..... that will be our mode of transport.... while the arab's have cars made out of sterling silver, not just painted that color.
