Excellent news.
LMAO!
The intelligence of the American public is directly correlated to the number of fools who believe gas prices are manipulated by the government. That includes the great majority of Dems and a certain share of the apolitical vote. A great many Americans are positively bone-ignorant concerning how a free-market operates. I guarantee you most believe that some goverment flunkies, working in a hidden office in Washington, control prices and corporations.
Bad news for the MSM and their liberal buddies, We will see if this gets any coverage on the news tonight and the papers tomorrow..
But we're in a recession! The housing market is about to collapse! The bread lines are getting longer. There are no jobs! Illegal immigrants are becoming desperate! This is an economic crisis and it's all Bush's fault!!!!!!! (sarc in case you're wondering)
OMG! ROFL! Funniest one yet and the others were great!
Oh boy, more bad news for the libs. And right before the election, damn the luck!
I have a new thread up re another record setting day for the Dow. Some of the so called finance outfits are ignoring it.

Stocks Close Higher As Dow Sets Another Record Close
NEW YORK (AP) -- The Dow Jones industrial average inched to another record close Friday to mark the third straight week of triple-digit increases in the blue chip index.
The Dow spent much of a quiet session Friday in the red following a strong surge Thursday in which the Dow broke through 11,900 for the first time to set closing and trading highs. Thursday's advance came amid optimism over the health of corporate earnings and put the Dow 12,000 benchmark within investors' sights.
According to preliminary figures, the Dow Jones industrial average rose 12.81, or 0.11 percent, to 11,960.51, passing the record close of 11,947.70 set Thursday.
Broader stock indicators also advanced. The Standard & Poor's 500 index was up 2.79, or 0.20 percent, at 1,365.62 and the Nasdaq composite index was up 11.11, or 0.47 percent, at 2,357.29.
