Ok i'm confused, when gas was over $3 a gallon this summer, folks on here were blaming Bush for it all, now prices are dropping like a rock, will the same folks give Bush credit for the drops!? I think not!

Bottom line is, Bush has nothing to do with Oil prices! Wether they are $3 a gallon or $1 a gallon!

Finally we can shut up the wackos who blamed Bush for the high prices! I think they are finally waking up and realizing prices are market driven.

so sorry skippy, but Bush's DECISIONS effect oil prices. Since his decisions are so radical and aggressive against those who oppose us, he has in effect, created a lot of global uncertainty, which in turn makes oil prices go up, along with other tangable things like supply and demand, but global fear and global conflicts effect prices

ah, well, if you're looking for blame, india, china and hedge funds brought oil up to $65.

iran, katrina and alaska brought it up from there to $78.

one could argue that since we are a serious security concern on iran's left and right flanks (afghanistan and iraq), we've subtly forced iran to the negotiating table sooner than they would have.

but who cares, oil is down now.

Proceeds from S-B shirts will send Skip to Iraq with an American Flag jumpsuit, no helmet or flak jacket and a bullhorn. Please buy more than one.

Good health and family

your natural gas bill should be much easier to swallow now that amaranth (a hedge fun speccing in natgas) blew up to the tune of $6 billion. that's a lot of plugs.
