$4 Gas for
4 More Years?
As long as Big Oil’s friends are in the White House, nothing will change.
We’re paying $4 a gallon for gas, while big oil companies are making billions in profit. AND nothing much is being done about oil independence or global warming.
Why?
Because oil companies and their friends write our national energy policy. If we want change, we need a President who will stand up for us rather than give in to Big Oil. That is NOT John McCain.
John McCain
received over $1 million in campaign contributions from »»oil & gas industry companies
1 has over 20 oil company lobbyists running his »»campaign
2 would give big oil companies $3.8 billion in tax breaks »»
3 supports gimmicks (like a Gas Tax Holiday and offshore »»drilling), over real solutions

I don’t believe …
I don’t believe that Bush is the sole offender or that Congress hasn’t done thier job.. but it is true that we can’t continue to use gas and oil we must find alternatives. To that end I dont think putting Mr. McCain in the white house will be of the best interest of the US. I’m not listening to rumers I would hope that no voting American will as our future depends on it. Just voicing my opinion which is my right under the US constitution.

Why doesn’t anyone …
Why doesn’t anyone question why congress has done nothing to help us acheve energy independance.Gas prices have shot thru the roof the past 2 years which would be when Pelosi took over.Everyone wants to blame Bush,but the truth is congress has done nothing but stop the production of gas.stop the building of nuclear power plants(which even the people of three mile island only got the dose of radiation equal to that of an xray).Clean coal technology.And hold on here is the kicker hydrogen.

As far as the …
As far as the refineries the government does allow them to be built and there are refineries in th united states and there are epa standards they have to follow.The problem is when members of congress use there power to stop them from being built for there own agenda.

Drilling now won’t …
Drilling now won’t help anything. It wouldnt even make it to market for 10 years… and there has been no refineries built nor will the government allow one to be built. So no place to refine it..I say invest in alternative energy and stop buying into the imports. and for Petes sake quit sending all the jobs overseas..
