Wise up: Any oil that is found off our coast or on any lands that are controlled by us will not necessarily be used here in the U.S. Oil companies are the first true global companies and have no country other than the land of Greed. Most oil sold on the open market is sold at one spot by oil speculators or ICE. This whole offshore drilling is a ploy by Bush to open up areas for global companies not for America. I am all for drilling where ever, but that is not the answer to the problem, get off of oil. The Governor of Kentucky is right at this moment trying to stop electric cars in his state on technicality; the gov is bought and paid for by big oil, vote them all out and now.

There's one good reason to elect Obama. Keep the taxes on gas on the increase. Follow Gore's plan to outlaw fossil fuels and let the price on gas go up until nobody can afford to live anymore. Sounds like a plan!

It amazes me....willing tax payers!!
a far cry from "THE BOSTON TEA PARTY" Like Pavlov's dogs,they are now wear the leash of others who control them. Willingly! Without a wimper..Yes even defending their own punishment because of the effects of Liberia narcotic rhetoric! TAX as they Obama says!!

Totally indoctrinated!Willing robots! Evolution has weaned out of most the ability to say NO! No to Taxes.The state of the abilty to think as an indivual is gone!! Follow the party line!!!

In things ,Social-liberalism is succeeding.Not unlike Nazi Germany,when good people believed what they were feed.Liberals know,the bigger the lie,or the distortion,the more dumb Non-thinking people will follow.

like the sheep they are,they Will follow,with dumb looks on their faces saying,proclaiming "LOOK AT ME I LOVE HIGHER TAXES" like the Donkey Land of Pinocchio's,they go! Obama just sits back,his elitist knowledge is reinforced by this belief people he has,that people are generally stupid.

So go self Flagellate your selves with higher taxes,drink your Kool Aid.... Look in the Mirror at your pathetic monkey face,and ask your self,is this all there is?? For many this winter it will be pure Misery!!.....Your taxes will have to bail out the poor miserable bastards this winter who will suffer terribly....

I feel sorry for the old,the poor and the infirmed!BUT,I feel moreso for my family !!

DA MONKEY FACE IN THE WHITE HOUSE TREE WILL TAKE YOUR BANANA'S FROM YA!!!

Again, if it fixes the roads, I'm fine with a 10-cent increase. If they start acting like the post office in the future though, FORGET IT!!

The Highway Funding bill is the pig sty of both parties voter pandering PORK projects.

Including PIGS from both such as H.Clinton , D. Hastert , J. Murtha and C. Grassley.

Of course J. McCain opposes the Pig Traw so he isn't considered a team player.

Congress is spending money like drunken sailors and they have the gall even to discuss raising gax taxes even one cent during this time of already sickening gas prices? Amazing.
So Washington wants more taxes from me to keep the road crews at work but they are spending 343 million dollars A DAY on war---some things are just so obviously stupid !!
There will be riots if another gas tax is imposed,people are at a breaking point and can't take any more taxes.
Where I live I already pay 40 cents of taxes on every gallon of gas now they want more.......when the Saudis ain't screwing us our own countrymen are !
Why do we need to keep building roads...NO ONE IS DRIVING according to their sources. people are carpooling and using public transportation more.

Why is everyone so concerned about the Gov`t raising gas tax?Kentucky has an automatic raise in taxes on gasoline regularly,thanks to our Democrat now running for Senator in Congress!!!For some reason Democrats do not comprehend conservatism>

Once they have it they will do as they please with it and we will never get it back .

Has any tax for anything ever been taken off the books at any level of government , they ask for a 2 million dollar levy and it runs forever .

If the other vehicle was a model T also you would have no problem pulling it with another .

your concept is flawed because you did not apply common sense .

The simple fact is that no matter what Government says the money is for they will spend it however they want .

use Social Secuity as an example .

If that is to tough take a look at what Federal Income tax was for when it was institututed and tell me where it is spent today .

There has been a rumor around for decades that an excise tax to support the Spanish-American War of 1898 is still in effect.

It was on telephones .

Wouldn't expect anything else from Nancy and her merry group. Thinking a gas tax increse would lower demand thus driving down the price of oil. I have a better plan. Drill! Drill! Drill!

Peeussy,
Speaker of tha house my ol hairy @$$. She is a disgrace to polititions.

If the (R)'s had any sense at all they would have been relentless on her when her husband got over on the Tunna scandle when she first got in.
Reid sounds like a stupid queer mousey fool.

Murca is a dumb@$$ and needs relentless redicule for saying the war was lost and the surge was a mistake
Obama is a liar
Hillary ought to stand up and say what she really fills, Obama aint got what it takes to lead this country
