Too funny. A few years back it would have been Bush and his evil oil cronies lining their pockets. It appears now that the laws of supply and demand, consumption and dollar value fluctuations, actually hold true. Amazing.

If Bush had actually succeeded in securing oil contracts for US businesses that also provided a kickback to us after he invaded Iraq, then we wouldn't be having these issues with oil/gas prices.
