You know what cheap gas is? Ya know what it really is? Its some doofus republican who's proud of his self.. fer making under-the-table money from the oil companies. ------------------------- Posted by charlie929



Gee, well, since the House is Democrat, and the Senate is Democrat, and 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue is Democrat, and the Majority of the Governors are Democrat . . .what Republicans are you talking about?

You have to have proof of your claim he has something to do with gas prices, ------------------------------ Posted by curse914



I do - read this:
"When George Bush left office, I was paying $1.34 per gallon - now, after just five months of Hussein Al-Bama and his Mid-East Muslim Oil Baron Cronies bowing to the Oil Kings, I'm paying $2.80 per gallon!"

Sound familiar?

When is THIS President going to CHANGE the way the White House feeds Big Oil? I was Hoping for Change, but I certainly ain't getting it at the gas pump!!!

Inference, idiot, inference. You have to have proof of your claim he has something to do with gas prices, but you do not so you are just going to have to stick with "inference". Gobbles would be proud.

POWER TO THE PEOPLE WHO USE THE GAS. Gas is the blood and NERVE of this wacky economy.
1) Mr. President it is time to nationalize gas prices under $1.50 controlled by the federal government, else no recovery.
2) All refineries must be also controlled by the federal government to ensure adequate supply and stop the speculations on the commodities markets.

This would only work, if we were the ones supplying our own oil. As it is Sunni Wahhabist nutters control the global price of oil. You know, the same Saudi Wahhabists that flew the plans into the towers.

Jimmy Carter said we needed to get off the foreign oil spigot 30 years ago. Instead as a nation we chose to listen to a B-grade actor who's claim to fame was befriending a chimp named Bonzo. Our nation gets everything it deserves. It was not up until recently that "true" Americans fought and died, yes, died to get the nimbrods of this country a 5 day work week. Worker and product safe laws are not, and should not, be a distant memory.

Obama should just have GW call his buddy the king and tell him to give us a special deal. He'll still have enough money if he just shafts the rest of the countries.

Hey folks don't worry. Remember minimun wages go up again next month so all the prices will be headed skyward. That loaf of bread will be $4 & milk $6 so you won't need to worry about gas prices. But I'm sure the messiah has a plan for that too. Only problem is if you are middle class and have a job you're sc_rew_ed. We probably won't make it thru the summer months anyway.

Look, stupid, Laissez-faire economics has been supported by the now dead Republican Party for 100 years. It is the economics of Zero-Regulation that lead to the collapse of our economy. We have been living from one bubble to another for the last 30 years. The days of the Single Wage earner are over (1960) and never to return.

The next economy will not be sustainable without Zero Population Growth factored into the equation. 6 billion of us consuming at the level of the United States would have our oceans empty and ground fallow in 20 years. The infinite growth based economic model is over, done finito.

Do you have anything to add, genius?
