Tell your local representatives you are fed up with gas. The guy who does the morning show also has an afternoon talk radio show at SCHNITTSHOW.COM

Anything is worth a shot at sending the message.

Guys, even if we do drill, who is going to refine it?

With no refineries and the ones we have maxed at 100%, we are not only importing oil but refined gas.

We are also importing ULSD b/c we cannot refine enough of it and the cost of it....

Great idea but it won't matter.

Tell your congressman to encourage the Gov to put caps on futures.

Three reasons fuel costs so much:

1. American dollar is worth a lot less.
2. Relations with the Middle East not good.
3. Overseas refining.

Does that actually count and or is this recognized as a "legal petition"?

MJ is a douche bag.

And you might want to tell Congress YOU'RE fed up. Otherwise they'll think you're just an illiterate idiot.

you cannot possibly believe that if we use crude oil that is already here in this country, that only has to go 1/10th the distance, in a nice Eco friendly pipeline, is going to cost the same as bringing huge diesel burning behemoth tankers halfway across the planet and having some arab dingle berry set our price for us, if we are controling the oil fields we are controling the price.

LOL I love your sarcasm.. bring it on brother! The libs just don't get it Or maybe they do.. and want high gas prices so we stop using that evil fossil fuel and save "mother earth". High gas prices keep libs in control of us. What is next? What other thing do the libs need to control so they have more power?

if everyone sends them a drill bit all they are going to do is send it to a scrap company and line their pocks with even more money. HSS tool steel brings quite alot of money for scap
