Yes! Bull Crap!

You refuse to believe CBS news and then you post a chart from Rupert Murdoch's WSJ/Fox showing exactly what I posted.

So of all the ludicrous "reasons" for increasing the price of oil in this country the BIG OIL industry is now claiming that the drought is a reason for the recent increase in petroleum product pricing!

"Fracking" is apparently being gated by the lack of water availability across this nation, so now it has become a reason to increase oil prices. . .  :mad: :mad: :mad:

  You tell if this is a con game.  The price of gas by the interstate on 109 bypass in Anderson to day was $3.659 on the other end of the bypass at Cross street the gas was $3.159. 

  That 40 cents difference in 2 miles.  We got 18 gallons of gas and saved $7.20.  They sure got a good con game, don't they.   :mad:

I agree, and that drives me CRAZY.  Hey, wasn't Obama and his attorney General Eric Holder "supposed" to  form a task force to investigate gas price gouging and speculation?  What ever happened to that?  I guess there IS NO price gouging, huh?

  Let's face it Henry, Big oil has bought both the Republicans and the Democrats.  They give millions of dollare to both sides.   :mad: Some of the oil companies pay no taxes make Billions of dollars in profits and still take Millions and Millions of dollars from us the tax payers and the Republicans keep it from happening, saying it a tax increase.  :doh:  Obama can't do shit with the corporations loving Republicans controlling the house of Representatives.  :angry:

  Also face it that nothing is going to be done until after the election.  Your Republican Party would let America fall into a default and a depression to keep Obama a one term president.  If you can't agree to that, you need to take your brain to the Geeks and have your memory chips restored.   :wink: :smile:

I don't think it would be any different than if it was the other way around.  Neither side is willing to give anything up.  THAT is why I think Obama is the wrong person for the job.  When he first took office, he made jokes about the republicans can go along for the ride, just to stay out of the way....he told his democrats if the repubs bring a knife to the fight, YOU bring a gun....

This is from the guy who said he was going to build bridges between the two parties and he was going to be more transparent....he failed.

He said he was going to end price gouging, he said he was going to form a task force and stop it. He knows how to talk, but he does not know how to actually make things happen.  He is NOT a good leader.  It is that simple.

  Well, the Golden Mitten is not the one for the job, that's for sure.  Don't you realize that Mitt calls the rich oil people his friends and they run around in the same circles.  kissing :kissit: each other ass to make more money and how to cut their taxes even more.  The oil companies don't pay taxes and neither does Mitt.  :haha:  :haha:  You sure know how to pick a leader who will clean your plow and mine and the American middle class.  You sure don't know shit.   :wink: :biggrin:

You are good at slamming Romney, but can you be honest about Obama?  Are YOU proud of his leadership abilities?

  Yes, Yes sir.  The only thing that I have not like about Obama is, he was stupid enough to try to get along with the Republicans.  Not fight them as hard and nasty as they fought him at every turn.  Yes, yes sir, you belong to the party of NO, NO, NO, NO.

  Like your Turtle Man said, Turtle Head Mitch McConnell, "Our main job is to make Obama a one term president."  Obama should have seen that this was war and the Republican Party was not going to help him out of the depression your wonderful George W. got us into.  :doh:  :doh:  You have just drank too much of the Republican KoolAid.  :koolaid:  You're in the dark, :dark: and you couldn't find your ass with both hands.  :wacko:

He could have done better. But he is still better than the alternative.
