I'm totally opposed to drilling, but limiting it alone won't prevent spills if we don't watche tankers properly. The latest spill in the beautiful San Francisco Bay was from a tanker bringing imported oil, not a drilling platform. Same is true of the Valdez. It's using oil that puts the environment at risk.

We may have to start living like Europe soon. We use more oil than them combined. They recycle EVERYTHING and there's virtually not an SUV, Hummer or Sports car in site. Their products tend to be higher quality, so they last a LOT longer. Their houses, roads, food portions etc are a lot smaller. We don't have to be as bad, but we can learn a lesson. They jumped on the alternate energy band wagon years before we have. We need to wake up from the American dream and analyze what we really need.

so the president and his g.o.p. want americans to be greater gas junkies by damaging pristine wilderness and coastal areas. so the pres. and the republicans are CONSERVATIVE on any and everything but energy usage.

my family and i have been concerned about the high price of gas for several years. not to mention the cost of insurance and upkeep. we decided to ride bike. we have been without a car for over a year. and we like it a lot, while saving thousands of dollars a year.

electric cars have been around for over 100 years. we do not need oil. however, oil companies would like to continue to sell it.

and you've made it quite obvious with your callow comments that you're certainly not he to impress me nor anyone else...haha

[flip9388]

i realize that the single person i originally commented to has nothing to do with the price of gas. However when that same person's misguided thoughts and ideals become common with millions of americans and politicians.....well that's why we're gonna be paying $7 per gallon at least by 2011.

and why do you speak derogatively about the fact someone is "getting ahead in life"?

and what do you mean the "real" is going to bite me in the ass?

[flip9388]

haha there you go with the ignorant assumptions again

careful with those

[DVincentW]

Read on flip:

Yes you are a stranger, but you called this out with your insipid remark:

"it's b/c of pussies like you that we're payign out the ass for oil"

How does an educated person even type that kind of misinformed statement?

Going to college getting a degee just shows youre getting ahead.But wait till the real bites you in the ass.

Admit the fact that person you insulted has nothing to do with the price of oil.

You forget they said the war would pay for itself in oil revenue.

[DVincentW]

I am glad you are not impressed because you are shit on the axe.

I am not here to impress the likes of you.

Go worship yourself.

So you just keep on complaining about how youtube is deleting your "original" music vids, and your tenuous attempts at philosophy in your channel profile, and lets not forget your thriving musical career with a label that i've never heard of nor could find any info of anywhere on the world wide web......AND.....I'll keep doing what i do.

[flip9388]

haha

insecure much?

must you really bring up and insult the ability and IQ of a complete stranger on youtube?

I could sit here and explain to you how all but one of my vids were recorded years ago when i began playing, or how I'm receiving my MBA from UGA in the fall, or how i even spent a year doing studio work in nashville for a living....But none of that would matter to you b/c you're the kinda guy that prefers ignorant assumption to truth.

I don't mind if you idiots in California pay ten bucks a gallon for your gas... or wait wait for a breeze so you can turn your lights on... or sit in traffic waiting for your battery cells to recharge... the rest of us (that's about 60% of the nation) want to be able to feed our kids and put a roof over our heads. Defy the No Drill Democrates! DRILL HERE DRILL NOW>>>
