Read 'em and weep . . .



Actually . . . you can weep for joy that you're paying a lot less . . .

not so bad out there in Montgomery . . . is it?

Actually, this pic was taken abut 4 days ago, so the prices are probably higher.

Have a nice day.

Um, do you think we're getting fleeced? The fact that the price increases are coming so fast and high shows this is more Bush BS. Come on, you bought gas in the AM for 2.11 and by noon, the same gas is 2.49?

Is it a coincidence that all in the Bush are from Big Oil? Condie had an Exxon tanker named after her (they had to change the tanker's name once she was nominated to the cabinet post).

If you listen to the daily reports from Wall St. about the fundamental reasons for oil price increases, any and all information is being used to justify the climb. Whether there are hurricanes in the Gulf, mid-Eastern unrest, or competition from the 3rd world for gasoline, every day there's some BS reason. What really is driving the fundamentals? Well, Wall St. and hedge fund managers have discovered energy futures and they are makcing a mint. So you have big oil making billions $$/quarter and Wall St. making a mint in the futures market, the very same market that every shipping, airline, energy company uses to hedge such price spikes.

So, next time you fuel up your F150, think about the folks who are reaping the benefits...

Oh, and my stock F150, with AF1 intake is getting 16.8 mpg. Not too bad for 6000 lbs.

Wow, its amazing how some can see into alternate realities/future with such clarity and not see the problems here and now. Tell me, is there somwhere/sometime out there where there isnt some sort of retarded Liberal vs. Conservative war? Just curious.

Current gas prices are b.s. There is no denying it. It dont matter whos at fault. We are getting screwed and doing nothing about it. But then again it just must be some crazy liberal nonsense cause our oil loving pres and his crew wouldnt dare show favor to big oil. Why that just sounds crazy....

Later,

Luis S

I filled up 2 days ago and it was 2.38 so theres no telling how high it is now. I dont have to pay for my gas so it doesnt bother me that much but if I did I wouldnt drive near as much as I do.
