15. Are you kidding? I love paying $2.75 -$3 a gallon
for gas, sometimes I siphon gas out of my own car and put it in strangers cars just so I can go buy more gas!:sarcasm:

26. I'm holding off until the price goes up some more. The oil

12. he could make all his useless announcements from one location

20. Or, he could have shown some fucking LEADERSHIP
Cut his vacation short, and gone STRAIGHT to NOLA instead of back to DC.

What a fucking asshole.

7. Don't get had, unless you voted for this SOB
Fuck him, anyone who voted for him and fuck his very existence. He is nothing more than a do-nothing president, voted in by a bunch of do-nothing & know-nothings.

10. At least Jimmy Carter ordered the temperature raised, lowered in the WH
when he was president. He made the staff set the thermostats at energy-saving levels in both cold and warm weather.

I'm sure Bush is just burnin' fuel like there's no tomorrow!

17. How much gas is being consumed by his war in Iraq?
It would seem to me if we were to end the war we could save one hell-of-a-lot of fuel. :eyes:

21. What fucking nerve!
Remember when he said he was giving up desserts as a 'sacrifice' while the troops were fighting in Iraq. Anyway, apparently sacrifice is only for the little people, kinda like taxes! While we conserve, more out of necessity due to lack of money, he and his 'HAVES AND HAVE MORES' will continue the 'GOOD LIFE' unhindered by any sacrifice. Good example he is setting for the GREEDY. When he is golfing this weekend, will his lapdog media have the guts to show us?
