The price of fuel.....

[missmanners]

$2.03 today. I couldn't believe my eyes. I almost felt like taking a trip somewhere just so I could buy more at that price. Gee, you don't think the upcoming midterm election has anything to do with it do you?


Nahhhhhhh.....

Holy cow , it just went under $2.89 here. My state is screwed like that, they tax the piss out of everything.

Is your state one in danger of losing it's republican senate or house seat in this election to a dem?

Not really, we have two female dem senators in a strong blue state , Maria cantwel is the incombant and mcgavin is the republican trying to take the senate seat. I dont see washington changing any time soon.

The west side is strong dem and the east side is strong republican.

Dems will just keep recounting till they win.

We're down to $2.39.

Saudi's king said the price of oil was still too high a few weeks ago. He said that high price of oil is good for Saudi but reasonable price of oil is good for the world's economy. More than likely, he is concerned about Iran and their nuclear situation considering Iran would use Saudi as a target. King is trading oil for allies.

Obviously, the price of gas is going the wrong way. I hope for $5 a gallon myself.

I think it would be a good time in October to purchase some more oil stock.

I'm wondering how it was supposed to benefit the GOP when gas prices went to $3.

 

[headvoid]

1 US gallon = 3.7854118 litres

We are at $1.73 per litre

That makes our price per gallon in the UK $6.55

It was over $2 per litre a few weeks ago

But GW has stated the states are too reliant on Oil - I wonder why?

it doesn't.... quite the opposite in fact. Which is why I believe there is something going on behind the scenes to bring the price down so low this close to the midterm. It's early enough that people wont THINK it's a conspiracy and when it jumps back up about the 10th, it can be blamed on a new demand for winter fuels and home heating oil.

Where the hell do you live? I haven't seen $2.03 since...since 2004.... It's a mere $2.77 here.

Actually, high gas prices benefit Bush by letting him paint Arabs = Bad, therefore whatever we're doing over there, trust me you're gonna love it.

Also, it lets Bush making ridiculous speeches about spearheading the search for alternative energy sources, as if he had just thought it up the night before. This from a former oil man and family friend to every Saudi mogul in the world, including the Bin Ladens.

And low gas prices benefit those in charge because people are stupid. Hmmm...gas is going down? Our Fearless Leaders must be the cause! Let's vote for them!

In reality, it's an external issue. There's not really any way for any American politician to manipulate the price of oil, but they'll be sure to claim they did. I'm eyeing a Senate race in a neighboring state that seems to be based mostly on this subject, in fact. In this case, the Democrat challenger is claiming the Republican incumbent was somehow responsible for the high prices. I guess that's not going to work for her much longer.

$2.10/gallon and falling locally, btw.

Yes, Bush paints Arabs=Bad by talking every day about how Iraqis want freedom and Afghanis want democracy and arabs in oppressive police dictatorships want democracy.

Why don't you Bush critics just admit that you are racists who don't think anyone with arab skin color is capable of comprehending democracy and freedom? Bush believes in these people more than you do, apparently.

Let's get the Democrats in charge soon so they can show the world that Democracy is for Americans only. Forget the Klan, the new home of racism is the Democratic Party. And they're proud of it!

So, which is it - Bush painting Arabs bad in first paragraph or Bush family friend to every Saudi mogul in the world in the second paragraph?
