Las Vegas Line: Bush Drops-Gas Prices Rise!

"The stories that made up America and the stories that America made up." ~ Robert Wuhl

What had happened was the decider made a deal with the devil, no that was with the religious right, no the oil companies, darn I can't keep this straight anymore. Well he was supposed to stay up in the polls and the price of gas was to stabilize, but as Zero Mostel once said, "a funny thing happened on the way to the forum". Things got on a turntable and someone put the plug in backward or hardwired the device wrong, 'cause its spinning out of control.

The Oil Exec's are getting fatter, our wallets are getting thinner, and the oil in the middle east is NOT paying for the WAHR ON TERA, like we were told. Well with oil approaching $80 per barrel, I guess the oil has a chance of eventually paying for the war, but only if the exec's stop getting the platinum parachutes when they retire or leave to take a consulting job with Haliburton/KBR. Or maybe they can get a job as a HR specialist for Wally-World, since they work so hard at pleasing their employees.

Conservatives, republicans, libertarians, and populists never have worked well together because they really don't believe in the same things. They were just confused into thinking they could get along for a few years. Good Ole boys never will understand that they didn't come from 'merica to begin with, they were brought here on a ship either as an indentured servant or as personnel chattel of some conservative aristocrat. Democracy is not for the faint of heart, it takes daily involvement, exercising of the brain; and not listening to some spouting neo-republican-conservative-xenophobe-drug addict that cannot maintain a monogamous relationship of any kind due to personality defects.

"Permanent good can never be the outcome of untruth and violence." ~ Mahatma Gandhi (1869-1948)

"I wanted you to see what real courage is, instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand. It's when you know you're licked before you begin but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what." ~ Harper Lee
