Why is everyone bitchin about how much fuel costs -- just a thought, what was in that energy policy that VP Cheney wrote and nobody can get a glimpse of ??? Who are the Pols that are now in office that have MAJOR interests in the OIL industries?? How come a Mass politician can go to Venezuela and make a deal for low cost oil to be delivered to New England when the party in charge lets prices climb right off the wall. How many Billions of dollars are being spent on a 7 year trip to PLUTO? How many homes would that heat?? I think I will shut up as this is not a poitical forum. OR MAYBE IT IS AND WE JUST MISS THE POINT. I wonder how much fuel we burn in Iraq daily ???
By the way, I am on a fixed income and have the same gripes as you. I sometimes have to scrape to pay that @#%#$^%oil bill too.
And while on the subject .. A trip to the ditch with my Wrangler takes almost a tank of gas. I think this year will see less trips to my favorite fishing spots with the cost of gas. I think we will see a new group of politicians next election.
