June 12, 201412 yr About 6 years ago when we were paying 4 bucks per gallon, wasn't the price about. $150 per barrel ?
June 12, 201412 yr Author OVER 106 NOW http://finance.yahoo.com/news/oil-jumps-near-106-iraq-103140820.html Local news basically saying the billions of dollars we spent helping out of there were wasted money Like we did not already know this.
June 12, 201412 yr Let's see how fast the liberals blame Bush. I see it as the fault of Obama and his Arab Spring failure.

June 12, 201412 yr Failed foreign policy. I'm torn because the reason that the cities are falling in Iraq is because the CIC promised to pull our troops out and he kept with that. 4,000 lives for what ? ! These people have been killing each other for a bazillion years, why are we as Americans so arrogant that we believe our insertion into their cultural issues would change the course of their world view. I say get 'em all out and drill in Anwr. I want to see some serious domestic policy changes. Enough is enough….that is all
June 13, 201412 yr Let's see how fast the liberals blame Bush. I see it as the fault of Obama and his Arab Spring failure. I guess it was Obama 's fault when the cost if crude was high under Bush?
June 13, 201412 yr Here's what I would like to see - ban oil exports from the US. Force the oil companies to keep the oil they are drilling in the US here in the US. With our production continuing to increase, pretty soon we won't need foreign oil.
June 13, 201412 yr :puke: I hate oil companies. And wall street. How can something happening today impact oil pumped a year ago and refined 9 months ago. Bunch of jerks.

With our production continuing to increase, pretty soon we won't need foreign oil. Oil exports are already banned (or at least heavily restricted). Refined exports are not. Tell me, if prices start to go down, why would oil companies spend the investment capital to continue increasing production? They keep drilling because profits keep rising. You cut that off and investment doesn't continue and production falls. None of this happens in a vacuum.

You cut that off and investment doesn't continue and production falls. None of this happens in a vacuum. I know. It's a world economy and prices are driven by demand elsewhere. But for a moment, let me enjoy my radical right pipe dream. (pun intended)
June 13, 201412 yr I guess it was Obama 's fault when the cost if crude was high under Bush? I'm not like liberals. I don't lay blame all the time on the opposite party. Unlike liberals and democrats I can find fault in my own party. Yes it was Bush's fault Now it's Obamas fault
