If you read the post, you'd see it was about both the Democratic and Republican parties, not one or the other... So your remark is completely useless in regards to the topic. You don't have to be a democrat (or anything else for that matter) to support "Oil-less" technologies, you know.

EDIT: and just to clarify, I am not disputing the argument you just made about Democrats being responsible for high prices, but the OP basically said Democrats were guilty as well, but for different reasons... I will not concede that drilling up every bit of land in search of oil is any sort of solution (certainly not in the long run)... Regardless of how little concern one has for a certain habitat, it's still a fact that ecosystems are linked and they all affect eachother.
