(CNN) -- The search for the data and voice recorders from the Air France plane that crashed more than a month ago off Brazil's coast is entering a new phase, according to France's accident investigation agency.

Searchers have discovered hundreds of pieces of wreckage from Air France Flight 447.

All 228 people aboard the plane were killed in the June 1 crash.

The flight data recorder and the cockpit voice recorder, commonly known as black boxes, stop giving out acoustic broadcasts after 30 days. But investigators decided to continue listening for the "pings" for 10 days after that.

Now, the two U.S. naval vessels and a French Navy submarine will halt their search for the recorders which investigators hope will shed light on exactly how the plane crashed.

The second phase of the search will involve France's oceanographic ship "Pourquoi Pas?" which carries specialized exploration and intervention vehicles, according to the French air accident investigation agency known as the BEA.

The French vessel will conduct new searches using diving equipment and towed sonar, the BEA said.

Finding the recorders is of "capital importance," and "no effort must be spared in achieving this end," Air France has said.

"We want to stress that for the sake of the families, we hope that the search for the black boxes will be successful," an Air France representative said.

This month, investigators revealed that the plane bellyflopped intact into the Atlantic Ocean. Investigator Alain Bouillard said it was still not clear what caused the crash, the deadliest in Air France's 75-year history.

The mountainous ocean floor in the search area ranges from 3,280 to 15,091 feet, BEA officials have said, making the search for the recorders -- and the rest of the plane's debris -- difficult.

"It is as if it fell in the Andes," said Olivier Ferrante, chief of the BEA search mission.

Flight 447 went down in stormy weather while flying from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, to Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris, France.

Brazil called off the search for bodies June 27, having found 51 of the 228 people who died, according to the military.

Investigators have also found more than 600 parts and structural components of the plane, along with luggage, Bouillard said.

(CNN) -- A Democratic congressman from Mississippi plans to hold a hearing into how millions of dollars worth of supplies meant for Gulf Coast hurricane survivors ended up being given away as surplus property.

Rep. Bennie Thompson says he'll hold a hearing into how supplies for Katrina victims were diverted.

Rep. Bennie Thompson, chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security, called the situation "a debacle."

In June, CNN revealed that the Federal Emergency Management Agency had warehoused $85 million worth of household goods for two years before giving them away to federal agencies and 16 states. But Thompson said there is still a great need for basic supplies in Mississippi.

"We just think that FEMA needs to come and tell the committee how such a debacle could occur, and in the process, what are they going to do to assure Congress and the taxpaying public that it will never happen again," Thompson said.

The household goods were meant to help Gulf Coast households rebuild. But they sat in FEMA warehouses for two years before the agency declared them surplus property and gave them away in February.

The state of Louisiana had not asked for any of the supplies, prompting outrage there after the original CNN report. Since then, the state has taken steps to claim some of the stockpiles and distribute them to groups working to resettle victims of Hurricane Katrina, the 2005 storm that flooded New Orleans and ravaged the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

Mississippi took the supplies it was offered but did not give them to Katrina victims. Instead, as CNN reported this week, the state distributed them to prisons, volunteer fire departments, colleges and other state agencies.

Thompson said he was stunned at how Mississippi officials made "a mockery of the whole process."

"I'm disappointed that my state decided that prisoners had a higher priority than Katrina victims and has made no effort to correct it even when this mistake was made," he said.

"Any time items intended for victims of Katrina end up in the hands of the Department of Corrections or state employees, then clearly, Mississippi dropped the ball."  Watch victims tell why they need the items Â»

Thompson said his committee would "ask all the tough questions" and demand any documents associated with the matter.

"So we are prepared, if necessary, to put those officials under oath," he said. "We are prepared if necessary to subpoena any and all documents relative to this situation."

FEMA spokesman Marty Bahamonde said the agency welcomed any congressional hearing.

"We always make ourselves available to answer the questions. That's something we are always ready to do," he said.

FEMA said it was costing more than $1 million a year to store the supplies, but officials have not been able to answer why the agency didn't get the supplies to Katrina victims. FEMA said the agency has launched an internal probe into the issue.

Jim Marler, director of Mississippi's surplus agency, failed to return repeated phone calls over several months to explain what happened there. But spokeswoman Kym Wiggins said the agency was not told the items were still needed -- a statement that didn't sit well with groups working to rebuild the stricken coast.

Bill Stallworth, executive director of the Hope Coordination Center in Biloxi, said he and other community leaders would have begged for the FEMA stockpiles had they known they were available.

"When I hear people stand up and just beat their chest and say we've got everything under control, that's when I just want to slap them upside the head and say, 'Get a grip, get a life,' " said Stallworth, also a Biloxi city councilman.

(CNN) -- They scream germs: Used gum. A flock of pigeons. A tomb covered with kisses.

The Blarney Stone in Ireland received more than 400,000 visitors in 2008, many who kissed the lucky stone.

These bacteria-infested attractions have topped an unusual list compiled by editors at TripAdvisor.com, a travel advice Web site. This summer, editors at the site named the five "germiest" tourist spots in the world.

Despite the H1N1 scare that went global this spring, tourists haven't stopped spitting out their gum and sticking it onto a wall already saturated with millions of gooey pieces, editors say. Nor do germ fears stop travelers from journeying to the pigeon-infested St. Mark's Square in Venice, Italy, where the birds often bestow droppings.

"These places are great attractions regardless of the fact that they are 'germy'," said Brooke Ferencsik, a travel expert at TripAdvisor. "Venice is lovely, and it's a great spot, but with all the pigeons, I'd bring an umbrella just in case the birds drop some gifts from above."

Though it is unlikely to get sick from visiting one of these places, health experts say germs are always a gamble. The more people who touch and visit a spot, the more germs there are in the mix, they say.

Their traveling advice? Travelers should load up on hand sanitizers and wash their hands often on their trips.

Blarney Stone in Blarney, Ireland

Where the Blarney Stone came from and how it got to Ireland is a matter of debate. One old tale goes: Once upon a time, the king of Ireland saved a woman drowning in Blarney Lake. The woman told the king that if he kissed the stone, he would receive the gift of eloquence.

Thus, the tradition of kissing the Blarney stone was born.  Watch where you can find germ hotspots Â»

Last year, about 400,000 people kissed the stone, says a spokesman for Blarney Castle & Gardens. To do so, the person must be hung upside down to kiss the rock.

Some people prefer watching to smooching.

Chuck Gerba, a professor of microbiology at the University of Arizona, visited the Blarney Stone in Ireland last year and refused to kiss the same spot where millions of tourists had put their lips.

"My wife did it," he added. "And I wiped her lips before I kissed her."

Market Theater Gum Wall in Seattle, Washington

There is a distinct fruity aroma that welcomes visitors when they pass the giant wall of gum housing millions of chewed pieces in Seattle. The gum -- pink, blue, yellow and green -- is piled several inches thick, spanning an area 15 feet high and 50 feet wide.  Watch the wall of gum Â»

The Gum Wall, also dubbed the Wall of Gum, is one of the strangest attractions in Pike Place Market, where visitors can go to watch fish throwers and see the original Starbucks.

"People will do artwork with the gum," said Jay Hitt, the marketing director of the Market Theater. "They write words on the wall, stick posters and business cards."

The gum-sticking tradition began by accident in 1993 when patrons, mostly college students waiting in line for a show, would stick gum to the wall. Theater company workers say they scraped the gum routinely, but eventually gave up. Slowly the gum amassed.

Today, there aren't any rules at the Gum Wall. Visitors from all over the world snap photos next to it and leave as many pieces of their own gum as they want.

St. Mark's Square in Venice, Italy

In the heart of Venice, Italy, lies St. Mark's Square, also known as Piazza San Marco, where both tourists and pigeons flock. Each year, more than 2 million visitors venture to St. Mark's Square to see the Doge's Palace and St. Mark's Basilica.

Thousands of the dirty birds crowd the square sometimes leaving their droppings or attacking visitors. Some fearless visitors who aren't worried about germs snap pictures with the birds. But health experts warn that birds are notorious for carrying dangerous germs and viruses.

If you want to see the famous pigeons, go soon. In 2007, city officials have worked hard to remove the pigeons from the square. They have banned people from feeding them and have even started trapping the birds in nets, significantly reducing the pigeon population.

Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, California

What do George Clooney, Clint Eastwood and Marilyn Monroe have in common?

All three of them are celebrated stars with their hand prints molded into the concrete of the forecourt of Grauman's Chinese Theatre for millions of people to touch.

The sidewalk is littered with 246 celebrity hand and footprints that draw in 4.5 million visitors a year, many of whom put their own hands and feet on them. The site began as an accident in 1927 when Norma Talmadge, a famous actress in the 1920s, stepped into wet cement. Creator and owner of the theater, Sid Grauman, decided to make the hand and footprints a tradition.

"The stars are selected based on the longevity of their career," said Levi Tinker, a tour guide at the Grauman Theatre. "Stars who will be around 10 to 20 years from now are picked so people know who they are."

For germ-conscious travelers, Tinker says the concrete is mopped daily and pressure washed once a week.

Oscar Wilde's Tomb in Paris, France

It's an unusual site in the PÃ¨re Lachaise Cemetery in Paris. Author and playwright Oscar Wilde's body rests in a tomb speckled with lipstick marks from visitors from all over the world showing their literary appreciation.

Wilde, who died in 1900 from cerebral meningitis, continues to be a celebrated literary figure today famous for his tabooed sexuality at the time and his novels such as "The Picture of Dorian Gray."

The kisses display a rainbow of colors -- so much so that travel experts say Oscar Wilde's name on the tomb can be hard to discern sometimes.

One TripAdvisor traveler wrote after visiting the grave, "The tombstone of Oscar Wilde is ... well, wild, excuse the pun."

Tehran, Iran (CNN) -- Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad warned the United States and other nations Tuesday not to impose tougher sanctions in reaction to the Islamic country's nuclear ambitions.

Iran already faces U.N. sanctions and the five permanent Security Council members -- the United States, Britain, Russia, China and France, all of which have veto power -- have been engaged along with Germany in discussions about possible further measures.

"It's high time for some people to open their eyes and adapt themselves to real changes that are under way," Ahmadinejad said at a news conference in Tehran.

Asked specifically about the threat of tougher sanctions, the Iranian president said, "We prefer that they move in the spirit of cooperation. It won't put us in trouble. They themselves will get into trouble."

Ahmadinejad also seemed to threaten unspecified retaliation, saying Iran won't act like it has in the past.

"Definitely, we will show a reaction that will put them to shame, like always," he said.

Ahmadinejad's comments came one day after U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Saudi Arabian Foreign Minister Saud al-Faisal expressed concern over Iran's nuclear program.

Meeting in Riyadh with al-Faisal during a four-day trip to the Middle East, Clinton called Iran's recent announcement that it has started to produce higher-grade enriched uranium "a provocative move in defiance of United Nations Security Council resolutions." Clinton further warned that the "increasingly disturbing and destabilizing actions" by Iran "will result in increasing isolation."

Earlier Monday, Clinton told a town hall meeting in Doha, Qatar, that the United States believes Iran "is moving toward a military dictatorship."

Clinton was responding to a question about whether the United States was preparing for military action in Iran.

"No, we are planning to bring the world community together in applying pressure to Iran through sanctions adopted by the United Nations that will be particularly aimed at those enterprises controlled by the Revolutionary Guard, which we believe is, in effect, supplanting the government of Iran," Clinton said.

She added, "We see that the government of Iran, the supreme leader, the president, the parliament, is being supplanted, and that Iran is moving toward a military dictatorship. Now, that is our view."

Clinton called for stronger actions after Iran announced it is stepping up production of highly enriched uranium.

"Iran leaves the international community little choice but to impose greater costs for its provocative steps," Clinton said. "Together, we are encouraging Iran to reconsider its dangerous policy decisions."

Speaking at the U.S.-Islamic World Forum, Clinton said the United States is "working actively" with its partners "to prepare and implement new measures to convince Iran to change its course."

Ahmadinejad said at a Monday news conference that Iran had no choice but to enrich the uranium because the International Atomic Energy Agency did not fulfill its obligation to provide the Islamic republic with the nuclear material.

Iran said last week that it had completed its first batch of 20 percent enriched uranium and will soon triple production. Uranium enriched to 20 percent can set off a nuclear reaction, scientists say, but is not weapons grade.

Answering a question from CNN, Ahmadinejad said it was not economical for Iran to perform its own enrichment. The Islamic republic would rather buy it from other sources, he said. But the nation's supply of enriched uranium was running low and Iran could not afford to wait any longer, Ahmadinejad said.

He would not confirm or deny that Iran would be willing to stop its enrichment program if it could obtain the uranium elsewhere.

Iranian enrichment of uranium at 20 percent is "wholly unjustified," three diplomats wrote the U.N. nuclear agency's director-general in a letter obtained Tuesday by CNN.

The U.S., French and Russia ambassadors to the IAEA said the move is "contrary to U.N. Security Council resolutions" and poses "a further step toward a capability to produce high enriched uranium."

Such an enrichment, the three said in a letter dated February 12, "is not only unnecessary, but would serve to further undermine the confidence of the international community in Iran's actions."

On Monday, U.S. Assistant Secretary of State P.J. Crowley talked about the joint letter to IAEA director General Yukiya Amano.

"We referred back to the Tehran research reactor proposal from last fall that Iran has yet to accept and we alluded to the availability of medical isotopes on the international market," Crowley said. "Given these two legitimate and immediately available options, there is no rationale for Iran to attempt to produce its own fuel."

Asked about comments made Monday by the director of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization, Ali Akbar Salehi, to the semi-official Fars News Agency that Iran would be prepared to stop its 20 percent enrichment, Crowley encouraged Iran to put forth its proposals.

"If they have ideas on how to enact the Tehran research reactor proposal, they should bring them to the IAEA and we can have another round of talks," Crowley said. "Within the parameters of the Tehran research reactor proposal, we are happy to discuss effective ways of implementing it. Our problem is that we had one meeting on the issue and Iran has yet to come back to the table."

Iran insists its nuclear program is solely for peaceful civilian purposes.

Clinton said she's not so sure.

"Iran has consistently failed to live up to its responsibilities," she said. "It has refused to demonstrate to the international community that its nuclear program is entirely peaceful. And last year, the world learned of a secret nuclear facility near the city of Qom."

Iran could obtain the enriched uranium it says it wants for medical research by accepting a proposal under which Iran would ship its uranium abroad to be enriched and then returned, but Iran has rejected that offer, Clinton said.

"This has only deepened the international community's doubts about Iran's nuclear intentions, along with the Iranian government's own isolation."

She added that Iran has also refused recent diplomatic efforts to reach a resolution.

A soon-to-be released U.S. assessment of Iran's nuclear program is expected to conclude the government has resumed limited work on a nuclear weapon, according to a U.S. official.

CNN's Shirzad Bozorgmehr and Elise Labott contributed to this report.

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Chevron Corp. CEO David O'Reilly says Big Oil is not to blame for skyrocketing gas prices.

Chevron Corp. CEO David O'Reilly says world demand for crude oil has been growing, which is affecting gas prices.

In an interview Tuesday with Wolf Blitzer on CNN's "The Situation Room," O'Reilly said high demand and a short supply of crude oil were key factors causing gas prices to spike. Despite reports of record profits among major oil companies, O'Reilly downplayed a recent poll in which Americans said corporate avarice played a role.

O'Reilly also discussed President Bush's and GOP presumptive presidential nominee Sen. John McCain's proposal to lift the ban on new offshore drilling as well as presumptive Democratic nominee Sen. Barack Obama's call for taxing companies' windfall profits.

The following is an edited version of the show's transcript:

Blitzer: You know you have -- you and ExxonMobil, the Big Oil companies --have a huge public relations problem. In all the recent polls, when the American public is asked, who do you blame for these huge gas prices at the pump, they -- more than any other single source -- they blame Big Oil. They blame you. What's going on?  Watch Blitzer grill O'Reilly Â»

O'Reilly: Well, I don't think they blame us as much as you think. It looks to me like there's a lot of blame to go around.

Blitzer: There's other blame, but more than any other single source, they blame Big Oil.

O'Reilly: It depends on the poll you look at.

Blitzer: The recent Gallup Poll.

O'Reilly: Let me point out what we're trying to do about this because I think the issue here is one of supply. And prices are high today, but it's fundamentally a concern about oil supplies -- 75 percent of the price of gasoline is related to crude oil.

We're very dependent on crude oil imports. The total world demand for crude oil has been growing steadily over the last decade. And that is affecting everybody's price. So it is a concern, but we need to work on the supply side, as well as the demand side, to bring change.

Blitzer: Because you have had record profits, right?

O'Reilly: We're investing those record profits.

Blitzer: But billions and billions of dollars in profits, more than ever before.

O'Reilly: Yes, but it's a big business. And on a return-on-sales business, we're right in there with the average of American business today. What we're doing is investing that money. For example, last year, we did make a lot of money, $18.7 billion. This year, our capital investment in new supplies is $22.9 billion, almost $23 billion.

Blitzer: You know that Barack Obama says if he's president, he wants a windfall profits tax. He wants to take a chunk of your profits right now and give it back to the American people. John McCain opposes that, as you know. So I assume you would like to see John McCain elected president?  Watch McCain explain his stance Â»

O'Reilly: Well, I would like to see no windfall profit tax. And I will tell you why. First of all, we are already heavily taxed as an industry. Our tax rates last year were at 45 percent, compared with in the 30s for the average of all industry.

Secondly, as I mentioned earlier, we're investing the money. If you take the money away, it will reduce investment, reduce supply and have exactly the opposite effect of helping the problem that you have referred to.

And, thirdly, we have done it before. We have had windfall profit taxes. Congress has studied them about 30 years ago. And what happened under those circumstances is supplies dropped domestically, and we became even more dependent on imported oil. You don't want to do that today.

Blitzer: Here's how Sen. Obama put it. Listen to this.

Obama (in a video clip): Sen. McCain wants to give billions of dollars in tax breaks to Big Oil and opposes a windfall profits tax on oil companies like Exxon to help families struggling with high energy costs. I think that is exactly why we need to change Washington.

Blitzer: So, I guess, given the stark difference when it comes to Big Oil between Obama and McCain -- let me rephrase the question -- do you want McCain to be elected?

O'Reilly: I want someone to be elected who will help resolve our energy crisis. And I don't know enough about Sen. Obama's position or Sen. McCain's position to pass judgment on either one of them.

What I do know, though, is that if we want to solve this problem of high energy prices, we're going to have to work not only in the demand side, as Congress has done with [Corporate Average Fuel Economy] standards and alternatives, but we're going to have to work on the supply as well.

Blitzer: Do you want offshore drilling to be approved on both coasts and in the Gulf, which Sen. McCain now says is a good idea?

O'Reilly: I do think that's a good idea. Today, our shores, except for the gulf off Texas and Mississippi and so forth, are off-limits today. So, look, Europeans who are very environmentally conscious -- the British, the Norwegians, the Danes, the Dutch -- they can allow sensible offshore production from their oceans. Why can't we?  See where drilling is allowed, banned Â»

Since we have -- over the last 20 years, domestic production has steadily declined -- and we have been more and more dependent on imports. We definitely need to do something about it. We don't know yet how much oil is under there, but we should at least be given the opportunity to look.

Blitzer: We invited our viewers to ask you a question, and some of the I-Reports came in. iReport.com: See what iReporters are saying about gas prices

Unidentified male (in a video clip): If you would had told me a year ago that gas prices were going to reach about $4 a gallon, I wouldn't have doubted you. And if you had told me the year before that that they would reach $3 a gallon, I still wouldn't have doubted you. So what should Americans expect in terms of pricing of gas in the future?

Blitzer: What do you think?

O'Reilly: Very good question. I mean, $4 gasoline is a reality today because ...

Blitzer: In some parts of the country, it's approaching $5.

O'Reilly: Well, 75 percent of that is the price of crude oil. And that is the crude oil that we have been talking about here that's driving the current crude oil -- energy market.

Blitzer: So, how high is it going to go?

O'Reilly: Well, if crude oil prices come down, I think those prices could moderate. But it's a big if. Crude oil prices have to come down. We need to send a very strong signal to the market that we're serious about increasing supplies in this country.

Blitzer: Do you think manipulators, stock manipulators, are paying -- are doing things to cause this spiral?

O'Reilly: I don't know enough about the financial markets. We're a physical player. But I think most of the price that we see today is because of concern about physical long-term supply.

Blitzer: Just because of the huge demand in India and China, also?

O'Reilly: Huge demand around the globe, including here in the United States.

Blitzer: Here's another question.

Unidentified male (in a video clip): Have we reached peak oil supply? And, if not, when do you expect that we will? And, once we do, when do you expect that the prices of gas will go down to a reasonable level?

O'Reilly: You know, peak oil is a big question today, and it's a very good question.

One of the issues that we face has been addressed -- around people -- has been addressed to the National Petroleum Council study, which was issued last year by the secretary of energy. It is a very important study. What it really says is, there's enough oil and gas in the ground, but the access is what's impeding production.

So, we could have a squeeze in the years ahead if we don't get after increasing our supplies, not only here in the U.S., but creating a global environment which permits access around the globe and free trade around the globe as far as oil is concerned.

text: our

text: new

text: supplies

text: is

text: billion

text: almost

text: billion

text: Blitzer

text: You

text: know

text: that

text: Barack

text: Obama

text: says

text: if

text: he

text: 's

text: president

text: he

text: wants

text: a

text: windfall

text: profits

text: tax

text: He

text: wants

text: to

text: take

text: a

text: chunk

text: of

text: your

text: profits

text: right

text: now

text: and

text: give

text: it

text: back

text: to

text: the

text: American

text: people

text: John

text: McCain

text: opposes

text: that

text: as

text: you

text: know

text: So

text: I

text: assume

text: you

text: would

text: like

text: to

text: see

text: John

text: McCain

text: elected

text: president

text: Watch

text: McCain

text: explain

text: his

text: stance

text: Â

text: O'Reilly

text: Well

text: I

text: would

text: like

text: to

text: see

text: no

text: windfall

text: profit

text: tax

text: And

text: I

text: will

text: tell

text: you

text: why

text: First

text: of

text: all

text: we

text: are

text: already

text: heavily

text: taxed

text: as

text: an

text: industry

text: Our

text: tax

text: rates

text: last

text: year

text: were

text: at

text: percent

text: compared

text: with

text: in

text: the

text: for

text: the

text: average

text: of

text: all

text: industry

text: Secondly

text: as

text: I

text: mentioned

text: earlier

text: we

text: 're

text: investing

text: the

text: money

text: If

text: you

text: take

text: the

text: money

text: away

text: it

text: will

text: reduce

text: investment

text: reduce

text: supply

text: and

text: have

text: exactly

text: the

text: opposite

text: effect

text: of

text: helping

text: the

text: problem

text: that

text: you

text: have

text: referred

text: to

text: And

text: thirdly

text: we

text: have

text: done

text: it

text: before

text: We

text: have

text: had

text: windfall

text: profit

text: taxes

text: Congress

text: has

text: studied

text: them

text: about

text: years

text: ago

text: And

text: what

text: happened

text: under

text: those

text: circumstances

text: is

text: supplies

text: dropped

text: domestically

text: and

text: we

text: became

text: even

text: more

text: dependent

text: on

text: imported

text: oil

text: You

text: do

text: n't

text: want

text: to

text: do

text: that

text: today

text: Blitzer

text: Here

text: 's

text: how

text: Sen.

text: Obama

text: put

text: it

text: Listen

text: to

text: this

text: Obama

text: in

text: a

text: video

text: clip

text: Sen.

text: McCain

text: wants

text: to

text: give

text: billions

text: of

text: dollars

text: in

text: tax

text: breaks

text: to

text: Big

text: Oil

text: and

text: opposes

text: a

text: windfall

text: profits

text: tax

text: on

text: oil

text: companies

text: like

text: Exxon

text: to

text: help

text: families

text: struggling

text: with

text: high

text: energy

text: costs

text: I

text: think

text: that

text: is

text: exactly

text: why

text: we

text: need

text: to

text: change

text: Washington

text: Blitzer

text: So

text: I

text: guess

text: given

text: the

text: stark

text: difference

text: when

text: it

text: comes

text: to

text: Big

text: Oil

text: between

text: Obama

text: and

text: McCain

text: let

text: me

text: rephrase

text: the

text: question

text: do

text: you

text: want

text: McCain

text: to

text: be

text: elected

text: O'Reilly

text: I

text: want

text: someone

text: to

text: be

text: elected

text: who

text: will

text: help

text: resolve

text: our

text: energy

text: crisis

text: And

text: I

text: do

text: n't

text: know

text: enough

text: about

text: Sen.

text: Obama

text: 's

text: position

text: or

text: Sen.

text: McCain

text: 's

text: position

text: to

text: pass

text: judgment

text: on

text: either

text: one

text: of

text: them

text: What

text: I

text: do

text: know

text: though

text: is

text: that

text: if

text: we

text: want

text: to

text: solve

text: this

text: problem

text: of

text: high

text: energy

text: prices

text: we

text: 're

text: going

text: to

text: have

text: to

text: work

text: not

text: only

text: in

text: the

text: demand

text: side

text: as

text: Congress

text: has

text: done

text: with

text: Corporate

text: Average

text: Fuel

text: Economy

text: standards

text: and

text: alternatives

text: but

text: we

text: 're

text: going

text: to

text: have

text: to

text: work

text: on

text: the

text: supply

text: as

text: well

text: Blitzer

text: Do

text: you

text: want

text: offshore

text: drilling

text: to

text: be

text: approved

text: on

text: both

text: coasts

text: and

text: in

text: the

text: Gulf

text: which

text: Sen.

text: McCain

text: now

text: says

text: is

text: a

text: good

text: idea

text: O'Reilly

text: I

text: do

text: think

text: that

text: 's

text: a

text: good

text: idea

text: Today

text: our

text: shores

text: except

text: for

text: the

text: gulf

text: off

text: Texas

text: and

text: Mississippi

text: and

text: so

text: forth

text: are

text: off

text: limits

text: today

text: So

text: look

text: Europeans

text: who

text: are

text: very

text: environmentally

text: conscious

text: the

text: British

text: the

text: Norwegians

text: the

text: Danes

text: the

text: Dutch

text: they

text: can

text: allow

text: sensible

text: offshore

text: production

text: from

text: their

text: oceans

text: Why

text: ca

text: n't

text: we

text: See

text: where

text: drilling

text: is

text: allowed

text: banned

text: Â

text: Since

text: we

text: have

text: over

text: the

text: last

text: years

text: domestic

text: production

text: has

text: steadily

text: declined

text: and

text: we

text: have

text: been

text: more

text: and

text: more

text: dependent

text: on

text: imports

text: We

text: definitely

text: need

text: to

text: do

text: something

text: about

text: it

text: We

text: do

text: n't

text: know

text: yet

text: how

text: much

text: oil

text: is

text: under

text: there

text: but

text: we

text: should

text: at

text: least

text: be

text: given

text: the

text: opportunity

text: to

text: look

text: Blitzer

text: We

text: invited

text: our

text: viewers

text: to

text: ask

text: you

text: a

text: question

text: and

text: some

text: of

text: the

text: I

text: Reports

text: came

text: in

text: iReport.com

text: See

text: what

text: iReporters

text: are

text: saying

text: about

text: gas

text: prices

text: Unidentified

text: male

text: in

text: a

text: video

text: clip

text: If

text: you

text: would

text: had

text: told

text: me

text: a

text: year

text: ago

text: that

text: gas

text: prices

text: were

text: going

text: to

text: reach

text: about

text: a

text: gallon

text: I

text: would

text: n't

text: have

text: doubted

text: you

text: And

text: if

text: you

text: had

text: told

text: me

text: the

text: year

text: before

text: that

text: that

text: they

text: would

text: reach

text: a

text: gallon

text: I

text: still

text: would

text: n't

text: have

text: doubted

text: you

text: So

text: what

text: should

text: Americans

text: expect

text: in

text: terms

text: of

text: pricing

text: of

text: gas

text: in

text: the

text: future

text: Blitzer

text: What

text: do

text: you

text: think

text: O'Reilly

text: Very

text: good

text: question

text: I

text: mean

text: gasoline

text: is

text: a

text: reality

text: today

text: because

text: Blitzer

text: In

text: some

text: parts

text: of

text: the

text: country

text: it

text: 's

text: approaching

text: O'Reilly

text: Well

text: percent

text: of

text: that

text: is

text: the

text: price

text: of

text: crude

text: oil

text: And

text: that

text: is

text: the

text: crude

text: oil

text: that

text: we

text: have

text: been

text: talking

text: about

text: here

text: that

text: 's

text: driving

text: the

text: current

text: crude

text: oil

text: energy

text: market

text: Blitzer

text: So

text: how

text: high

text: is

text: it

text: going

text: to

text: go

text: O'Reilly

text: Well

text: if

text: crude

text: oil

text: prices

text: come

text: down

text: I

text: think

text: those

text: prices

text: could

text: moderate

text: But

text: it

text: 's

text: a

text: big

text: if

text: Crude

text: oil

text: prices

text: have

text: to

text: come

text: down

text: We

text: need

text: to

text: send

text: a

text: very

text: strong

text: signal

text: to

text: the

text: market

text: that

text: we

text: 're

text: serious

text: about

text: increasing

text: supplies

text: in

text: this

text: country

text: Blitzer

text: Do

text: you

text: think

text: manipulators

text: stock

text: manipulators

text: are

text: paying

text: are

text: doing

text: things

text: to

text: cause

text: this

text: spiral

text: O'Reilly

text: I

text: do

text: n't

text: know

text: enough

text: about

text: the

text: financial

text: markets

text: We

text: 're

text: a

text: physical

text: player

text: But

text: I

text: think

text: most

text: of

text: the

text: price

text: that

text: we

text: see

text: today

text: is

text: because

text: of

text: concern

text: about

text: physical

text: long

text: term

text: supply

text: Blitzer

text: Just

text: because

text: of

text: the

text: huge

text: demand

text: in

text: India

text: and

text: China

text: also

text: O'Reilly

text: Huge

text: demand

text: around

text: the

text: globe

text: including

text: here

text: in

text: the

text: United

text: States

text: Blitzer

text: Here

text: 's

text: another

text: question

text: Unidentified

text: male

text: in

text: a

text: video

text: clip

text: Have

text: we

text: reached

text: peak

text: oil

text: supply

text: And

text: if

text: not

text: when

text: do

text: you

text: expect

text: that

text: we

text: will

text: And

text: once

text: we

text: do

text: when

text: do

text: you

text: expect

text: that

text: the

text: prices

text: of

text: gas

text: will

text: go

text: down

text: to

text: a

text: reasonable

text: level

text: O'Reilly

text: You

text: know

text: peak

text: oil

text: is

text: a

text: big

text: question

text: today

text: and

text: it

text: 's

text: a

text: very

text: good

text: question

text: One

text: of

text: the

text: issues

text: that

text: we

text: face

text: has

text: been

text: addressed

text: around

text: people

text: has

text: been

text: addressed

text: to

text: the

text: National

text: Petroleum

text: Council

text: study

text: which

text: was

text: issued

text: last

text: year

text: by

text: the

text: secretary

text: of

text: energy

text: It

text: is

text: a

text: very

text: important

text: study

text: What

text: it

text: really

text: says

text: is

text: there

text: 's

text: enough

text: oil

text: and

text: gas

text: in

text: the

text: ground

text: but

text: the

text: access

text: is

text: what

text: 's

text: impeding

text: production

text: So

text: we

text: could

text: have

text: a

text: squeeze

text: in

text: the

text: years

text: ahead

text: if

text: we

text: do

text: n't

text: get

text: after

text: increasing

text: our

text: supplies

text: not

text: here

text: in

text: the

text: but

text: creating
