Higher gas prices = More money to fund terrorism
The president's friends are getting rich off of higher gas prices.

In turn, terrorism has increased funding by other profiteers in the Middle East and elsewhere.

By not stopping this, not making a concerted effort to meet with OPEC, not even coming close to attempting to ween the United States off of oil, the president is giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

That makes him a traitor.

The United States certainly did not sell arms and ships to Japan during WWII no matter how profitable it would have been to private enterprise.

What makes it okay now?

1. Buy Citgo!
It's owned by the Venezuelans.

2. Yes, when you're not walking or using some other form
of transportation. But definitely buy Citgo when you need gas.

3. Walking?
Oh yeah! Isn't that when you put one leg in front of the other, over and over again, thus slowly covering ground?

Such a quaint idea. :evilgrin:

5. The American Oil And Gasoline Addicts And Junkies Are Funding Terrorism
As long as the Energy Producing Companies are making lots of money, bush and cheney make exceptions to their rules.
