Had to get my movie opinion out before the TB erupts with political bullshit from both sides.

Dreyfuss is a good actor but he doesn't come off as having an evil bone in his body (I'm sure someone will remind me of a movie where he played a bastard). And he doesn't have the voice. He's going to have to shove something very large in his rectum to pull it off.

Warwick Davis to play the first lady

3)Blonde midget whores

4)Bruce Campbell playing 14 different roles

Now there are two ways to deal with this problem. You can either kill this animal Saddam or you can cut off his food supply. We tried the latter for 15 years. Now I want you to take a long hard look at this statue. Those proportions are correct."

"I could pump some 12 gauge buckshot into him"

"No, I can't do that. But maybe if I can get him into a quail hunt I can shoot him in the face...."

I have no opinion on this Dick business. Unless it's Rob Lowe's dick, of course...

That is all.....

The penguins can only be in it IF they are fully armored and have rockets on their backs like Batman Returns. And they must be on steroids and have giant fangs. And if by dancing you mean attacking, then yes, we can have dancing penguins.

Yes, they're greedy... ALL corporations are. The entire POINT of a business is to make money, not charity. And if you think AMERICAN oil companies are raking it in, you should check out Chinese and Indian ones (companies which aren't strangled by retarded left-wing nutjobs who won't allow them to drill for more oil in frozen wastelands, thusly bringing the supply problem down and thusly reducing prices for the country that they reside in). But no, you're right. It's so much easier and more fun to yell out "Those bastards is making money when I has to pay $4 a gallon for gas!!! GRRRR!"

Ride a bike to work, hippie. Start a carpool. Buy a cheap, little moped. Or, INVENT AN ALTERNATIVE FUEL. If you're going to bitch, without a solution, then you're just PART OF THE PROBLEM

Goddamn hippies......

"Environmentalist Mafia"....classic. Since gas prices have been rising in Bush's term, does that mean he wants us to have high gas prices too? Does that make him part of the "Environmentalist Mafia" as well?

and this, coupled with the fact that i do ride my bike to work, will label me a hippie.

although pot makes me ralf.

Anyway, Tripp, the engineer from Enterprise should have played a younger Bush. He looks just like him

So we'd all just better get used to the fact that, until they decide it's time to start using alternate fuels and energy, we're going to have to bend over and yell "please sir, can I have some more" until our asses bleed from the collective raping we're going to take at the pumps.

And that won't be for a very long time, because face it, oil's infrastructure is so established and easy, that it's just a license to print money.

Bitches.

doesn't sound like you are doing any better a job at debating.

whatever. people's minds are set. a talkback slapfight sure as hell won't bring someone around.

Then everything went to hell.

Now they're telling us that Obama won't be able to change anything.

Fast forward two years and, keeping in line with the pattern, I bet the country's completely reversed course.

How does the Republican party continue to survive? Now that the corporations and big business are realizing they can do all the corrupt shit they'd like from within the liberal camp, perhaps it's the beginning of the end for the evangelicals.

It's not that liberals are any better imo. It's just that they ARE America. America is the leader of the LIBERAL Western world, of the entire world. It's idealogy is liberal. The constitution is liberal. All our founding father were liberal. The idea of 'relative' 'conservatism' within that is a joke. It was just a phantom movement propped up to hide the actions of those rich interests.

The only true conservatives are the evangelical freaks.

Please tell me in my post where I said that "no new refineries are allowed".

I said "The U.S. has also not brought on-line any new oil refineries in decades I think." I did not assign blame to anyone in particular with that sentence as to why there are no new refineries. Nor was I defending the oil companies.

Please read more carefully before calling someone a moron. I actually agree with what you said, but you can fuck off all the same.

SO CHENEY IS EVIL BECAUSE HE DOESN"T HAVE A SENSE OF THE WORTH OF A HUMAN LIFE. IMHO

Dreyfus, while an excellant actor, is SO politically wrong for the roll that I expect his Cheney to only embody what we see on TV.. Dreyfus has played the character a hundred times in other movies.. He plays a great asshole..

The problem is that with a real person like Cheney, that kind of portrayal will come off as dishonest and unbelievable. While the haters may relish in that kind of portrayal, true politically-minded people will knock it.

Im not saying I agree with Bush's politics or not - Im just saying regardless of your own view, try to base it in something that resembles fact, and if you're going to dig up the corpse of World War II, make sure you know what actually happened. Protip: US forces battled militant uprisings for 3 years after Japan signed its surrender papers, and US military forces deployed during World War II continue to be based in and around Germany TO THIS DAY.

And what's this about Cheney? He shot someone? I HADN'T HEARD. Asswipes...

explosion-proof braided fuel storage (plus air is non-combustible duhhh)

and they are just as good for trucks as for consumers. Get some info from someone besides Rush or Billy.

Oil companies are in the game to make a profit. Don't like it? Use less gas. I just bought a house a mile from where I work and I traded in my gas guzzling SUV three years ago and now drive a smaller, much more fuel efficient vehicle. Gas could double in price and it would have zero effect on me. You are responsible for the fact that you drive a gas guzzling SUV and that you live an hour away from where you work. Oil companies didn't make those decisions. You did because oil was cheap.

Oil prices will never be what they were. Rising demand in India and China will only increase as their economies grow and we are running out of places to drill for cheap oil. Due to high taxes, Europeans and Canadians have been living with gas this expensive for 10 plus years. Stop your bitching and whining and put the blame where it belongs. On you for being a fucking idiot and making yourself so dependent on cheap gas.

Ditch your hummer and buy a small fuel efficient vehicle and sell you McMansion an hour from where you work and move no further than 15 or 20 minutes away from your place of employment. You will save a shit load of cash, add an extra hour or two of free time to your schedule, help the environment and stick it to the oil companies all at the same time. But why do something that inconveniences you and actually solves the problem when you can do nothing and blame it on others and/or cry to the government to get involved? Americans went from a self sufficient, can do population to a can't do anything but complain and ask the government for help population in 3 generations. Life is so much easier for people today compared to 100 years ago and all you people bitch like it's the end of the world when something fucking stupid like gas prices increases. Thank fucking God that you even have a car in the first place. Billions of people went their entire lives without them. You'll live. Pussies.

no shit.

The era of cheap oil is nearly coming to an end, and the only way we'll be able to offset the rising costs will be to begin switching to alternative fuels or power sources.

but we weren't, we were shortsighted and reactionary, so we need to deal with it now.

However, I work in a town that is filled with millionaires, and I can tell you that they are not affected by this increase in gas (from what I can see based upon what they are driving). The gas stations in this town have always been $0.30 - 0.40 more a gallon than the surrounding towns, so they could care less how big their car is or how high gas goes. There's a freak'n hummer dealership right across the street from where I work, though it seems those sales have dropped significantly recently.

No permanent change comes without suffering and sacrifice and that's what it's going to take to knock some sense into Americans and Chinese.

With regard to the refineries, I read somewhere recently that efficiency upgrades are being performed on our existing refineries to the point where their output is being improved enough that is it the equivalent on building a new refinery every year. So near as I can tell our output isn't the problem, its' that our consumption is WAY TOO GODDAMN MUCH, us and the Chinese and the Indians.

And stop complaining about not being allowed to drill in Alaska. Just trade in the Hummer. Cut down the dependence.

b)i know the weak dollar has to have a lot to do with it, but that doesn't change the fact that we are using more oil than we should, and fighting wars over it that we have no business fighting, and diverting tons of funds away from where it should be: reducing consumption.

its pointless to argue over who is the bad guy in this whole oil mess. fact is we've got a fucking mess to deal with. we should be dealing with it, not holding on to an archaic lifestyle that will soon go the way of the dinosaurs (oil pun).

Spend some time at Whatreallyhappenned, Rense.com, Counterpunch, Dissident Voice and StopmebeforeIvoteagain. Get some REAL perspective instead of the single party hash you spewed above.

this is a place to bitch. and then bitch at other people who bitch about what we bitch about. and chances are, those bitches don't know half as much about what they say they know about as we know about the shit we say we know about, which usually isn't half as much as we say we do.

got it?

He should.

When the voting electorate shows just how HATEFUL and VINDICTIVE the Hollywood supporters of the left wing are -- that they would even try to REWRITE HISTORY -- they are certain to reject the object of their affection, for which they have been attached and humping the leg of Barack Hussein Obama like a male dog in heat!
