What a simple-minded little troll you are. Fuel prices are determined by
speculators who depend upon fear-mongering. You're one of the
"fear-mongered" masses.


"Found a credit card receipt for "regular grade" gasoline I bought in

$1.349 a gallon at an Exxon station in Alexandria, Virginia.


I paid $2.09 yesterday for regular at Exxon.
That's what...about a 55% increase in three years, or about 18% a year
since Bush assumed office.


Thanks, Dubya."

So I guess the moral of the story is that HK is also a "simple-minded
little troll", and part "of the "fear-mongered" masses."


Understanding what you read is not your forté, eh?

I never said that Bush was responsible for the increase. I just pointed
out that "regular grade" gasoline prices went up when Bush was in office.

Under the current administration they've gone up only 30% in three
years, or about 10% a year since he assumed office.

Thanks, Obama


Herr Krause. According to much of your past expose' all, not some;
but ALL of life's inconveniences are Bush's fault.
