Blood for Oil

Kinda sorry I only had a cheapo low-rez camera with me this a.m. What you cannot easily discern is that the lower price is for the premium blend of gas… Just one more data point putting the lie to the “blood for oil” Iraq adventure meme. If the goal were to pump oil and bring down prices, then oil would be at an all-time low, because if the American forces were to simply and solely concentrate on securing the Iraqi oil fields and delivery system and leave the tribal and religious squabbles to those who have practiced them so well for millennia, we’d be drowning in excess oil at low prices.

But even that would do little to correct the problem the disparity between lower-priced premium gas and higher-priced “regular” gas pictured above. THAT disparity (as well as the supply problem driving much of the recent gar price increases) is pretty much solely the responsibility of enviroweenies, politicians who listen to enviroweenies (and their Mass Media Podpeople flacks) and all their ilk who have been primarily instrumental in preventing the construction of new refinery facilities for the past 30+ years…

Blame it on the greens (who, if cosmic justice were as swift as it is sure, wouldn’t be green but red and black and blue all over… I can wait. The universe’s Creator will teach them a few lessons, eventually, as He lets them inhabit a hell of their own making.)
