Gas Up
by TChris
Fill your tank today. You can bet that gas prices will be higher tomorrow.
Oil prices rose 2.6 percent today after a series of violent attacks by militants in the Niger Delta that shut down nearly a fifth of Nigeria's oil production.
UPDATE: The president assures us that he's on top of the whole energy thing. Don't even worry about it. You'll be driving a battery powered car before you know it. Heck, don't even pay attention to how much ExxonMobil siphons out of your wallet this winter, because we're "on the threshold of new energy technology that I think will startle the American people." Any day now, Bush tells us, we'll see "some amazing breakthroughs" with, you know, energy stuff, like solar panels that'll give you more energy than you need. And this will all happen, um, really soon.
Today's version of the Bush administration's energy policy: just wait for something good to happen.
