One reason for this statement is he is lining his pockets to.

To keep the Bush critique on the level, I don't believe there is any evidence he is personally benefiting from the current gas cruch.

That's not to say that the Administration isn't closer to the oil industry than any previous, and that given how tight their "old boys network" is... in the long run they won't benefit indirectly.

So let's focus on all the real morally and legally questionable behavior that's helped earn his 60% DISSAPROVAL RATING.

OK

I don`t have proof but I`m sure the family does profit. They still have huge ties to the industry.

Show me some facts to the oil ties? You really think in this day in age the Bush family could be profiting from the high gas prices and no one would find out?? The media would jump ALL over this if the Bush's were making profits from high gas prices. I dont understand how people can make these statements with ZERO facts to back them up. You cant just assume something is true because you want it to be. prove me wrong and show me the facts they are profiting.

I'm pissed about the high gas prices too. But Bush is not sitting in the White house trying to come up with more ideas to F over the American people and line his pockets frim high gas.
