WE SHOULD BE GETTING FREE OIL FROM IRAQ

THE GREAT DEPRESSION will look like a blip compare to the economic collapse the UNITED STATES is about to suffer, the collapse of the US dollar will reduce AMERICA to a level of chaos,poverty,hurry up and finish building your wall on the Mexican border,and watch your head.....gringos!

Of course the Democrats lie. If oil had be ten dollars a barrel the price per gallon would have been 50 cents. Gas prices during the Clinton Administration went above 3 dollars a gallon for the first time in history but were steady around 2 dollars.

Yeah and the NINE HUNDRED AND THIRTY FIVE LIES told by Bush were just jokes right? ROFLMAO You nazi''s are really something. I noticed you didn''t address the ISSUE of the falling dollar? Problem there? I mean didn''t the Reich Propaganda Ministry put out a talking point on that today? ROFLMAO You bootlickers are SOOOOOOOOOO simple minded. Sieg Heil Bush

demslie:
When Clinton took office the average price of gas was $1.06 a gallon, when he left office it was in the $1.20 range. If you are going to quote something get your facts straight. Typical Republican.

You seem to have no issue with flat out lieing, do you? Do you think that the majority can''t remember what they payed for gas 10 years ago.

Funny, late 90s (1999) oil was selling $10 a barrel. Bush gets in office and price gradually rise. Sept 11 and they spike, only to drop back down to pre. Sept 11. Bush wins second reelection and the prices quickly sky rocket to 85, then 90 and now $110 a barrel.

When OPEC tried changing payment t to the Euro, which could have lowered price, the Bush administration fought the change. It just so happened that around that time the Iraq interim government was imposed by the Bush administration. Funny the way things can happen around the same time. Just another detail added on to the Bush Administration long tally of questionable events that happened during the last 7 years.

I didn''t see once in this entire article the reason the dollar dropped in value so much since the beginning of the week.

BERNANKE IS GOING TO PRINT $200BILLION!!!!!!!!!!

Why aren''t the media telling the people what''s going on?

In hopes that our drivers/truckers utilize their power they hold and stop! Our government ought to be held accountable for this pricing. When majority of the people loose jobs and homes, then they will possible get involved and not need this product to stay home, in the mean time bend over rover.
