All together now...

Let's all hold hands and Say It With Me: Supply and Demand. This great article by Krauthammer hits the truth of the matter. A combination of the energy consumption climate, government policy, and American behavior has created a situation in which 1) Demand is up and 2) Supply is down. Despite all the cynical posturing in D.C. we have to address both of these issues in order to fix the problem, or we'll be back here in ten years talking about $6 gas. We need to address demand as we can, but supply is the better bet - domestic drilling, importing ethanol, evening out gas standards, and improving refining capacity. Hmmm...3 out of 4 of those were in the President's energy policy 6 YEARS AGO and would have prevented alot of this.

It's THEIR FAULT!!!

As the wondrous Ann Coulter says in IT'S HARD OUT HERE FOR A PUMP - Yahoo! News, Dems are hiliarious to complain about gas prices. We've been saying - "Don't come up with forty different formulations, it will raise the price!", and "Let us drill in Alaska to get more oil to lower the price!", and "We need to build more refining capacity or prices will rise!" for just about forever, while the Dem's have spent years trying to raise the gas tax. One can only hope that America has paid attention.
