dumb ol BP Alaskan pipeline
that's it, i'm gettin me one of them green corn oil runnin cars
I dont think it's intentional, any more than the oil companies causing the hurricanes to keep gas supply low.
It's time to drill in the Alaskan wildlife refuge that is untouchable right now. There's enough oil there to last us 50 years, and that's without buying other oil.
Freakin liberals.

They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

Well, those darn pipelines don't go bad over night .... somebody either dropped the ball on the preventative maintenance or the maintenance & repair or replacement cycles. The timing causes an appearance or spawns suspicions that the accountants made this decision. Of course I see the dag-gum future traders are already using this as an excuse to bid the price up.

I don't think it is a conspiracy or anything.
The way I see it. In the 70's the gov't decided to regulate the crap out of oil companies looking to build refineries and explore for oil. The oil companies, knowing that this would happen in the future, said OK have it your way.
The major oil companies said this would happen as far back as the 70's if they couldn't build new refineries, it did and people are blaming them for it.
Look back at the major players in this whole thing. Many of them are still around. Vote them and their kind out and let the people who make this county run, run it.

Yep, the profits were an eyebrow raiser .... I can understand the increase of revenues, but would have preferred to see more expense for things such as exploration, research & development and facility upgrades(hey you reading this BP CEO and Board of Directors?) and other things to help make things better. That would have been one way to reduce the bottom line ...... 
As far as Leiberman is concerned ..... it just demonstrates again that .... no good deed or use of good judgement ever goes unpunished.

The oil companies want the regulation relaxed before going forward. They are prepared to collect all that money until they get what they want. The gov't has them over a barrel.
Actually the profit comes from the percentage. 10% of $3.00 is double the profit as 10% of $1.50. Unless the economy really goes into the toilet, the oil companies have no incentive to even try to act concerned. They will continue to do what they are doing because there is no reason for them not to do it.

Shame on me...I need to go to sensitivity training.
I've read that there is 13.2 billion barrells of oil up there. Dont know how long that would last...I dont remember where I erad the 50 years.

It's really ridiculous that the extreme lefties and the PETA members are telling us how to care for wildlife. I don't know about you guys, but I don't really care about caribou mating habits 
Speaking of PETA, I once recall them talking about fish as "fascinating individuals"???? (WHAT??)

We're good enough, the knowledge, technology and will are there so we can have a clean environment, respect the wildlife while extracting the oil.
It's important to take care of those things .... and once the oil is extracted any scars to the environment, both landscape and wildlife, can be restored to what they were before.
I believe we really do need to address the consumption end of the equation.
