Yeah, the GOP controls world commodity prices. Could it POSSIBLY be the fact that oil is dropping on the world commodity markets that's causing these price drops and the fact that US inventories are high, and not that Karl Rove the evil genius somehow is able to manipulate the world's investors into doing what he wants? And if he could, why wouldn't he have done this months ago before the political damage to the president could take hold?

Bought gas at Wal-Mart in Mineral Wells, Texas yesterday.
87 Octane was going for $2.29/gal.
To: Perdogg
Gas prices, barring any real emergency, should be about $2.25 per gal soon. I saw $2.24 in Central Ohio yesterday. Prices have dropped like a rock. Just a couple of weeks ago I paid something like $2.84.

“You know, if you were a real cynic, you could also wonder if the oil companies might not be pulling the price of gas down to help the Republicans get re-elected in the midterm elections a couple of months away,” Cafferty suggested just a few days earlier on the August 30 “Situation Room.” Can he explain why prices were going up while the '04 campaign was in progress?

IN my state taxes have been about .50ish a gallon for years.... Trying to argue taxes are the reason its so high is comical... it was 50is a gallon when retail was under a dollar.
Taxes on it have been static in my state since the last nickle increase around 1994.
Supply and Demand aren't what's behind the run up... pure speculative greed is.

C'mon, you know that doesn't count. It's Wal-Mart. They're slave-driving oppressors of the working man. ;)

Someone needs to explain the law of Supply and Demand to these idiots! How dense can you get?

Someone here a year or so ago said that we are being conditioned into accepting ever-increasing high low gas prices. Looks like they were right about that.

Prices go up, Big Oil is gouging us. Prices go down, Big Oil is making sure Evil Republicans stay in power. Nice and unfalsifiable.
