truckers/gas prices
Overheard this yesterday in a truck stop. Some drivers were sitting in a booth behind me and a couple of them said they were not going to haul till the price of gas drops or untill they are offered more per mile!
This of course, regardless of their decisions, leads to one thing only - INFLATION!!!!!!
Of course, if clinton didnt have a penis this would never have happened.

2. on late night trucker radio programs in 2000 constant vote W
because 'only Bush cares about truckers and will be sure there are lower gas prices'

remember the constant repub congressional criticism of Clinton-Gore because of high gas prices - LOWER than now

3. During the 2000 campaign
Gas prices started to go up and Clinton released gas from the National reserves. Gore caught hell about it and, if I remember correctly, Dubya said that he could just get on the phone....or was that a joke?

does anybody else remember that?
