Oil Addiction

Regrettably, every time catastrophe hits, Republican leaders fail to break their bond to Big Oil.

  • Profits for BP, Exxon, Shell and Chevron have surged, and Republicans vote for billions in new tax breaks to oil companies.
  • Bush and Congressional Republicans said their energy bill would lower gas prices and create jobs. They were wrong -- gas prices have doubled since Bush took office.
  • And energy costs and gas prices have reached the second highest level in history.
