The Left Loves The High Price Of Gas

The current run up in gas prices, Bush/Cheney leading the country and both are said to be the friendly with oil interest, are ingredients for what should be the Second World War of politics. Why is there not a relentless barrage of attacks on President Bush, Vice President Cheney and the oil companies? Where are the daily pronouncements of the Democratic operatives, newspapers editorials, liberal websites, network news and Democratic politicians linking Bush/Cheney and the oil companies to the high price of gas? What would be happening if the commodity were milk instead of oil?

The explanation is simple. The high price of oil serves the interest of the American Left, and from its point of view, high gas price will discourage fuel consumption, and that reduces greenhouse gas emission. The Left has always been for low prices on staples, but when the choice is between reducing greenhouse gases and securing low prices, the Left sides with the former.

Oh, Brown. You have to admit that since there is an finite supply of oil in the world, gas prices will only continue to rise, as will any product manufactured with petroleum. This thought is proposed in the theory of peak of production: oil.
