President Bush has nothing to do with gas prices. Obviously you failed to finish grade school.

Well the bottom started falling out of gasoline prices around the middle of the month. All the SS retirees and pension people, bought their best on gas, the first week of the month, at the near 4 buck a gallon price. So us retired people don''t have any money to buy this really great deal on gasoline, only those with some decent bucks can take advantage of this. NOW WATCH WHAT HAPPENS!!!! By the first week of November, (this is when us retirees get are checks and are "desparate" for gas) look at what the gas prices will be. I honest to God, hope I am wrong, and will love to be chastised. BUT, watch what us American retirees have to pay, for gas, from the 1st to the 10th of November. I sure hope us elders can get gas for $2.75 a gallon, in early November. I always fill up my wifes 11 year old car, but but for months I have been 1/2 tanking my 14 year old car. Sure would like to see how it feels again to tank them both up!!!!! Lets see what happens.

The price for gasoline reduced for the Presidential Election. After it, the Saudis will decrease output from the Persian Gulf to drive the price for a barrel of oil. What about repairs on the oil industry caused by hurricanes? Hurricanes like Katrina, Gustav, Ike, and future storms are risks to the industry. The Department of Homeland Security must not indulge politicians like Mike Brown. Pennsylvania''s EMA Director Adrian King was also terminated in 2005 for refusing to help New Orleans. The Federal and State Governments need motivated professionals to ensure a recovery effort to vital industrial plants. O.P.E.C. should realize that America is ready for a disaster.

BIG DEAL.
Seeing where the price of a barrel of oil was just four years ago, the price of gas should still be under $2.00 a gallon.
