Gawd! Gas goes up to 3.00 a gallon
Then gas drops a few cents and the freepers praise bush. They are praising bush for 2.91 gas. Do they even know how stupid they look?

2. The conditioning continues
Lets look into the future, lets say after the election. Gas rises to 3.50 per, then goes down to 3.42. Praise the incredible fiscal leadership of the grand old party. Its hard work being a "conservative."

And mr cheney said that mr reagan made it clear, "deficits don't matter."

7. And as Mr Cheney told us Californians during the Enron screwing
"Conservation is quaint, but it's not an energy policy." :eyes:

Funny thing for a conservative to tell a bunch of people who ultimately made it through the crisis by conserving.

6. When it goes back above $3 in a day or two, they'll be blaming Clinton

9. Stuck at 2.99 here for a few weeks now...
Down from 3.10 about a month ago.

It was at 2.20 a year ago... that's .80 more per gallon.

10. Mission accomplished.
But even though it hurts, and even though it is making the Bush Mob rich, there is a positive side to high prices. The only way to stop this mess we're in, is to pull their plug. And it seems it always takes a crisis for us to change. This is our crisis.

I wasn't going to start posting this, because I'm not much of a Friedman fan. But he brings up extremely important points in this talk.
