When you wiggle your ears does it tickle your butt?

You don’t understand the global market.

You don’t understand supply and demand.

You don’t understand lack of refinery capacity since we are importing refined gas.

You don’t understand that new refineries aren’t build because no one can get passed the EPA to pull a permit.

You don’t understand why we don’t sink a few holes and tap into out vast untapped supplies.

You can’t properly spell asphalt.

Ummm.....yeahh.....How's that working out Nancy?

Gas is almost $3.50 a gallon.

Your do nothing Democrats have to have a plan first instead of just BS talking points.

House Republican leaders on Tuesday challenged Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) to release a plan to lower gas prices that they say Democrats touted when they were in the minority.

“Two years ago this week, you stated that House Democrats had a ‘commonsense plan’ to ‘lower gas prices,’ ” the letter said. “In light of the skyrocketing gasoline prices affecting working families and every sector of our struggling economy, we are writing today to respectfully request that you reveal this ‘commonsense plan’ so we can begin work on responsible solutions to help ease this strain.”.....

Kinda like a Wii at Christmas time.

Blaming enviornmentalists for high oil prices is absurd.
If so, then they are responsible for Big Oil's record profits.
If that's the case, then the oil companies should be funding
the enviornmentalists for the high price of oil.
That doesn't wash with me. Does it with you?

Keep drinking that Koolaid Hi-Way..............

I guess your definition of "big fit" and mine are somewhat different.









Then again, I don't drink the Kool-aid.
