If you think gas prices are high NOW...

My favorite discussion about invading Iraq for its oil is when defenders argued that Bush would soon bring in an era of cheap gasoline. Predictions almost always ran below a dollar, one being as low as fifty cents a gallon.

Oh how gullible people can be.

OPEC is hinting that oil prices will soon be as high as $80 a barrel! That's almost double what we're paying now. This country can't handle $3.50 per gallon.

At a time when bloated oil corporations (Exxon) are claiming all-time record profits, something's got to be done. How long can they hold us all hostage? I guess at least as long as we have a walking oil corporation for a president...
