You know, if you LIBERALS (aka communists) would let us rational people build refineries, build nuclear power plants, and drill for oil - this problem wouldn't really be so bad because we'd have much greater supply and distribution channels.
Oh well... thanks a lot tree-huggers.

Tons of new refineries means dick when the two major pipelines for the south go down.
This isn't a manifestation of not having enough refineries. 40% of refineres are on the Gulf Coast for a reason: Thats where the oil tankers come. 40% of the refineries us horrible liberals "stopped" you from building would be damaged as well.
What I, and pretty much all the Liberals I know are against aren't new Nuke plants or refineries or wells. We are against the blind abandonment of reason. We are against the pityful view that if we simply would build more refineries and drill all of Alaska, somehow all our problems will somehow disappear. They won't. Our energy problems are much more severe and require a much larger solution and anything that doesn't try to address more than "oil" is a complete waste of time.
Funny how your misplaced anger isn't directed at the FUCKER in the White House whose energy policy did NOTHING of substance to lower our oil demands.
You blame "Communists." I blame every Presidential Administration from Carter on for failing to act. Did the Embargo's of the 1970s teach us nothing?
Supply has become a problem because we have done nothing to slow the demand.
What Acidus said. :)
We'll, I went a little overboard I guess. I blame environmentalists (tree-huggers). We should have nuclear power, which would reduce our need for oil, except for automobiles.
We should have nuclear power in every state, and it's the environmentalists who lobby against that - it just so happens than they are all also democrats.
