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, Does he mean unlike how Clinton released oil from the strategic petroleum reserve in 2000 just before the election while Gore was blaming Big Oil?
As I recall, the contracts for that oil went to African-American companies that weren't qualified (one had to rescind the contract), and most of the oil ended up exported to Europe where prices were higher.

Rush stated today that this find could top 50% of our oil usage. IF IT PANS OUT, that means "screw" the ragheads!!!!!

Yesterday, I filled up at $2.94 in northern ID.
To: eyedigress
It definitely makes a big difference per fill up. $Trillions have been extracted out of our A$$es by the speculators.

Cafferty.....isn't he that drunk who ran over a guy on a bike in NYC? And then ran? Speaking of conspiracies, if it wasn't for gas Jack wouldn't have driven the car that hit the bike....

Gas prices, barring any real emergency, should be about $2.25 per gal soon.

Some of CNN's "experts" seem to be potheads -- contributing to much short term memory loss and delusional paranoia.

Gas prices $3.10 a gallon GOP loses 25
$3.00 a gallon GOP loses 20
$2.75 a gallon GOP loses 15
$2.50 a gallon GOP loses 10
$2.25 a gallon GOP loses 5
$2.10 a gallon is a psychological relief point and GOP will actually gain 5
Based on national average.

Falling Gas Prices a GOP Conspiracy A "slow, slightly dimwitted" GOP President can successfully micromanage the world economy, while a "once-in-a-lifetime, exceptionally well-educated, Rhodes scholar" of a Dimocrat can't successfully define the word "is".....
Hmmmmmmm....which party do I want to have controlling the government?

Karl Rove takes time out from his busy schedule manipulating his hurricane machine to pull the "lower fuel prices" lever on his petrochemical control machine.I think he's got it all in a point-and-click interface on his laptop, through a browser, kind of like "My Yahoo."

A certain Republican state senator said to a small group of us that gas was going back to 3 bucks on November 8th and I was to agog to tell him not to even joke about that.
