Gas prices .. some good news
 
When Bush first took office the national average price for a gallon of
regular gas was $1.46.

Today, eight years later, regular is selling around here for about
$2.21/gal. In some places, like Cleveland, Ohio, the price has dropped
below 2 bucks/gal.

Not bad for 8 years.

Nice job, W.

The lower gas prices are nice. It's the rest of the *world* economy I'm
worried about.

Gas your pigs up while you can. Not gonna tow Cruis'n Rulz! to the pump.
Gonna just get 5 gal at a time and fill her up at home. Don't expect the
prices will hold till next spring. If you wait, you might just find it
back to $4

Nobody likes a spoilsport.

You're gonna give "O" some ideas of things to raise taxes on in order to
force you to
buy an oversized golf cart which is what he's gonna force Ford, GM and
Chrysler to build if they want a bailout.

Heaven forbid U.S. car makers produce mostly high quality, smaller, fuel
efficient cars that people want to buy and dump most of the oversized,
overpowered, mediocre quality V8's behemoths that get 13 mpg. Or less.

Again, you get it wrong. If the vast majority of people wanted to buy
smaller, fuel efficient cars,
Detroit would have been be turning them out by the millions for years.

That may change (and it should), but the point is .... Detroit builds what
people buy.
