How is the Cheney/Bush Energy Policy working out for you?
Edited on Mon Jul-24-06 11:22 AM by yellowcanine
I see record high crude prices, gasoline, diesel fuel, natural gas, electricity, more blackouts and brownouts accompanying every heat wave, more and longer electricity outages associated with storms, and more and longer electricity outages for no apparent reason. Is there anything about the Cheney/Bush energy policy that has gone right? Or do we, as Bush suggested about getting out of Iraq, have to "wait for the next president?"

1. Everything - EVERYTHING - that Bush touches turns to shit!
This was the expected outcome of the policy. The oil companies are ROLLING in earnings. No doubt cushy oil company jobs await Bush and Cheney when they leave office, as thanks for their criminal deeds. Unless, of course, both of the MoFo SOB's are where they really belong: IN A FEDERAL PRISON for crimes against humanity, violating The Constitution, theft, war crimes, cronyism, etc.

Thank you, Bush/Cheney! :sarcasm:

4. Very expensive
I have a 60 mile commute (each way), and with gas at $3.00/gallon, it's costing me a lot of money. I do have a carpool buddy to reduce the expense, but yeah, it's costing me. Spank you very much, Cheney & Bush!

5. It's costing me about $12 per day to go to work and then go home
that's about $3000 per year. I'd like to see GWB as someone's prison bitch.
