    I bet the countries we buy oil from need our exports more than we need their oil. like Protection. if we told saudia arabia, that we are no longer going to protect them & the rest of the middle east wacko's, they would give us oil for free.

    Obama shut down off shore deep water drilling, blamed it on BP. China, Mexico, Brazil and Venezuela are going for it and remember Russia is to. All our deep water rigs are going south and won't be back, so we will be at the mercy of our enemies still. Obama and his cronies want to deliver the USA to the Muslims and oil is the key, everthing you touch has oil in it, we can't do with out it. You best learn to pray to Ali to grease your wheels.

    Politics are to be in the political forum.

    But just so you know, they are in the process of permitting a deepwater drilling and shallow is back.

    BP proved one thing during this entire affair.

    Corporations cannot be trusted to do the right thing.

    Should never had happen.

    BP also was not interested in helping until forced.


    But, you are entitled to your opinion and me as well. I purchase nothing from BP anymore.

    You think so?

    I avoid any chance of it. I research it.

    But, I may accidentally buy something small, but nothing substantial.


    But, you are moving the thread from the intended fuel price discussion. Want politics, go to that part of the forum.
