There is nothing like the prospect of five-dollar gasoline to remind everyone in Congress — perhaps even Democrats — that their constituents’ well-being is more important than any ideological environmental goal of keeping gasoline prices high.

How kind of you.

What about Grannys heating bills, I suppose if she can't afford it she should just freeze?

So only the liberal Democrats are allowed to utilize fuels?

No wonder why Gorebinski has no problem wolfing down such a huge portion of them.

This is an election loser issue for them. Thank heaven we have at least a few of them.

It blows me away how many people will still drive everywhere at $4.60+/gallon. Yeah, it's hot in Redding but it won't kill you. I'm convinced there are people who will go without food and shelter before they'll cut back on the driving.

I honestly hope enough democrats reverse themselves and open up drilling in Alaska, the OCS, etc, even if it means republicans lose a campaign issue.

I agree, but they won't. They are already digging in their heels like petulant children.
