The June, 2008 edition of The Limbaugh Letter was all about oil, ethanol, and environmentalism, and there were pages and pages of facts regarding energy, which I am reproducing here, because these are facts that deserve to be repeated whenever possible so the American people will know exactly why we are paying so much for gasoline, and who is responsible (liberals, of course).
