But at $10.9 billion, the profit still ranks as the second-biggest for a U.S. company _ the only larger result in a three-month period was the $11.7 billion Exxon Mobil posted in the final three months of 2007.

Nothing new here...


Our addiction to oil continues to enslave us.


--------------------
A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?

Eh, it'd be the same situation with a dem president and rep congress.

Fucking politics...




Work towards more efficient vehicles whilst tapping into more domestic sources of fuel.
But oh no, can't have that....drilling for oil automatically means Exxon Valdez sized disasters every single time.
Heaven forbid the possibility that oil companies have actually improved drilling techniques/safety processes in all these years. rolleyes.gif
blah

Jeep Wrangler, motorcycle, and a good bicycle...all I need to cover my typical types of travel while using as little gas as possible.

No it wouldn't. This is exactly what happened before. The Republican Congress passed a bill to drill but Clinton vetoed it.

Thanks for your standard 8th grade answer though that "well nyah nyah the republicans would do the same thing!".
