A few things:
The new oil coming out of SD isn't being moved efficiently to market. There isn't enough pipeline capacity. The oil is ending up in storage or has to be moved less efficiently by rail. Guess which big Obama supporter has a lot of money invested in Western railroads?
Gas to liquids is now a reality. Sasol is building a GTL plant in Louisiana to make light oil (i.e. diesel). Exxon partnered with a company called Gigamethanol to develop a nat. gas to methanol to gasoline process that will utilize existing oil pipelines. Gasoline produced will cost under $2.85 a gallon which includes a $1.45 margin (this was before natural gas prices got really cheap).
However, GTL will continue to move at a snail's pace given the 'uncertain' regulatory environment of the current regime.
I sure wish I could copy that fantastic pic.
Very useful.

High gas prices are being caused by valueless dollars.
The price of a barrel of oil in Yen or Euros hasn't changed very much.
Anything Obama does to "fix" this can only be temporary.
The only permanent fix for this check kiting is to buy up the checks, and burn them ... and you will never, in a million years, see Congress or the Pres collect revenue in order to de-monitize it.
We are stuck with these Zimbabwe dollars.
Was copying the 'safe'version to friends with the title "Greetings, you've got gas.. Oh, wait, you don't" and the text:
"Greetings from the DOE, EPA, DOI and the Obama Administration"
Looking for Cabinet members I had forgotten to mention, went to:
http://www.whitehouse.gov/administration/cabinet
Where if you look at the order of succession, as presented on an official government site, the 3rd in line, Speaker of the House, is not even mentioned.
Geez, whatta team we've got there in DC, eh?
Frack.
