Bush/Cheny, Inc. and their Republican ilk have taken us all for a ride. Bush, yesterday...
“They (Democrats in Congress) will need to explain why $4-a-gallon gasoline is not enough incentive for them to act."- George W. Bush

The price of a barrel of oil has risen well over $100 a barrel since these two clowns took office, and their oil and gas buddies have made record profits.

They must really relish how they are gouging us at the pump and at the same time, hoping the pain will get us to cry uncle, and let them drill wherever they like.

However, we know that we cannot drill our way out of dependence on oil--foreign or otherwise. We must become more fuel efficient and use alternative forms of energy for transportation and our other energy needs.

1. Exactly. How does your nose feel after being rubbed in it?
I think the thing that gets me is picturing them laughing and slapping each other on the back for pulling a good one off on us.

I'll park the car before I'll yell "Uncle" to this group. Impeach, and then see who has the last laugh.

2. My amazement is more that these two thugs are still running this country...
after almost 8 years of total disarray, and Congress has just sat there and watched this shit go down (even helping in many cases).
