That would be because you live in Connecticut. ;-) It's still right
at $2.00 hereabouts.


I filled up Yo Ho's tank yesterday, 71 gallons at $2.05 a gallon.


That'll probably last you all summer.

What would Schumer know about being in a foxhole?


It's just a tactic, kind of like Lobsta' Boats and German/American
screwdrivers... Soundbites for elections. Remember Hillary's personal
firefight? I think the congress should be spending it's time finding
out why 1-2/3 of soldiers votes were not counted in the last election,
or why gas is up to $2.50 again. Remember, Pelosi said that was going
to be job 1 when she took the lead.. It has been a disaster ever
since, companies can't even plan ahead because of the volatility...
That's what's important, not who you can "Scooter Libby/Trent Lott,
Newt Gingrich" out of an office...


Why are you concerned about the economy? You sure as hell are not part
of it.


"1-2/3" of soldiers votes were not counted..."


Is that less than two soldiers?


You didn't actually get through a Connecticut high school, did you? With
a diploma?


Krause's Connecticut High school is ranked exactly where?
Look it up for yourself. James Hillhouse HS New London Ct.- Hide quoted text -

Man, that place sure is a dump! Especially for someone who's father
was very well off, new Ole Evinrude well, had the largest marina/
dealership in the eastern U.S., etc.!!

Works for me, but, frankly, I'd settle for just Cheney. The SOB just
can't seem to keep his mouth shut. Oh, and I'm still waiting for
Hannity's waterboarding for charity. That would be pay for view at it's
finest. ;-)


We'll shut Cheney up if you shut up Al Gore.

There's a moral equivalent. You betcha.

You can't just single him out, assuming that this is found to be
criminal.


The thing about Cheney was mostly tongue in cheek. I have mixed emotions
about going after these guys. I don't feel the need for prosecutions,
but it is a democracy and we need to know what happened to keep it from
happening again. These guys, ill-advised as they were IMO, were working
for our benefit. I don't need vengeance. I just need it not to happen
again. But Cheney should keep his mouth shut.

LOL, while it might be possible to shut up Cheney, I don't think it's
possible to keep Gore quiet. ;-(

The scary thing, in that group, Newt almost seems like a normal human,

I don't see how torturing prisoners is "working for our benefit."
