Chill out, it's only a few months before, his holiness, the Messiah, Lord Obama takes the reigns. Until then, he will impart some divine wisdom from time to time. For instance, proper tire inflation and regular tune-ups is the antidote to rising oil prices driven mostly by speculation and demand. Also, let us not forget that the Lord Barry has advised us to keep our home thermostats set in the 70 plus degree range. The narrow minds that post here ( me included) dutifully apologize, we feel so intimated by the awe inspiring wisdom of liberal moonbats.

If I change my spark plugs tonight will Barry and his experts recommend that we shut down all domestic drilling? The spark plugs will give me a slight mpg boost.

So we can just shut all domestic wells down and prices won't change? Do your "experts" think shutting down all wells will affect prices? What if massive oil was found in Rwanda? Would drilling there affect supply and prices?

It's almost hilarious that you believe tire pressure will have an impact on supply but not additional wells.

I'm rooted in 'reality' home slice... hence the fall will not be severe for me and my own.

But chances are you're not filling your tank with offshore oil so... moot.

All of you jeering at Obama for suggesting about the tires - are you now going to Fight The Power by ignoring your tires?
