I loved this part....

``It appears that high prices are acceptable to the American consumer,'' said Robert Ebel, chairman of the energy program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington. ``People want the house with a yard and white-picket fence so they are moving further and further out of the cities. They have to just get up earlier and drive further.''

SO maybe someone can go tell this dooshbag that he's clueless.

Just wrote a $2000 check to the local oil guy for part of this winter...ugh.

I guess he was not around when they passed around common sense.

You guys think politicians have common sense??? They do not live in the same world most of us live in!!!! What the Hell do they know about American consumers?!?!?!?!?:tm:

some American should move into his friggan office saying they had to sell the house with the white picket fence .
