INCREDIBLE article/photo irony
See this:

http://snipurl.com/pjl0

Bush marks Earth Day with focus on alternative fuels

And this article is coupled with a photo of * getting on to Air Force One, which costs an estimated $55,000 per hour to operate, mostly from fuel.

Amazing.

4. And junior sez;
"I know the folks here are suffering," Bush said in San Jose on Friday, "I pledge to the people here in California, if we find any price gouging it will be dealt with firmly."

Does this sound familiar, kind of like finding that terrible leaker?

6. The $55,000 is a combination of fuel, crew, maintenance and security.
Yup, it's $55,000 per hour.
