I couldn’t agree with you more. My thoughts exactly.

[Rushmore Rocks]

Every FReepathon, I am amazed at all the lurkers and regular posters who seem to think this a free service for them to use. It costs alot of bucks to keep this going.

Freedom isn’t free, nor is Free Republic.

“Only people who aren’t affected by the price of gasoline should be happy now”

Another species going extinct.......people that can afford to fill up their gas tanks.

[penelopesire]

LOL..you have a point.

Call me paranoid.

Like right now, if I didn’t know better, I would think you were making a snide remark.

(eye roll)

[penelopesire]

Thanks rodguy! You do a good job too.

I come and go alot, so am probably not as dependable to always be around like others around here that do the heavy lifting.

[Aquamarine]

So true. Tyrants want all the power so they can take all the money.

...which was later turned back off, and presumably the code changed. Claim was that at 5PM all the lights would turn off and the doors lock. ...sorry, who’s supposed to be in charge there?

[PhiKapMom]

Our prices in this part of OK have been dropping like a rock for about 2 1/2 weeks.

[ctdonath2]

Many (most?) just didn’t know this would happen. AFAIK, my rep was on a plane when all this broke, and apparently if he went back he’d be there just in time to learn they wrapped up at 5 and went home.

Certainly not the minority.

Are you sure that you're on the right website? Did you see the Freeper eyewitness account?

[Osage Orange]

I'm not sure I'd use...wiki as a "source". Is that the only one you have?

That being said, after I posted....I think I asked the wrong question.

Why would you think there is a flat direct percentage correlation with demand to price? What I mean by that is....just because demand goes up 10%...doesn't mean price will only go up 10%.

And if a person subscribes to "peak oil"....where demand outstrips supply..in any given time frame...price will surely rise percentage wise much more than the percent increase in demand.

IOW, I think you just looked at demand...and not production. And then took the Dem's bait on this issue.

Speculators are here in America to stay, and they serve a function...Unless we just toss this country overboard and go totally socialistmarxist...speculators in all commodities will be here like it or not.

IMO, the DemocratLyingLiberals threw out that accusation that it's the "EVIL SPECULATORS" that have caused price inflation.....just to divert attention to the FACT that they are holding the country hostage for POLITICAL reasons.

Drill here, drill now.

Krauthammer had a great article on drilling here and now...in my paper today. It's a great read.......

FWIW, and FRegards,

[DJ MacWoW]

Nancy Pelosi pulls the plug on the House to avoid a defeat on drilling(Nancy pulls the Chavez Card)

On the scene Freeper report.

[Forgiven_Sinner]

“I've been telling people for weeks that the Republicans could HAMMER the Democrats with this issue (my actual words were that ‘they could hammer the Democrats to DEATH with this issue’ - they could win the White House, and win back BOTH houses of Congress, if they would just freakin’ wake up! ;>). (BTW, can anyone name any other issue with 2/3 approval in the polls, where the opponents’ position is 100% completely irrational? “

Hi John - Yes, there IS another issue with 2/3 approval in the polls that the Democrats oppose—banning gay marriage! It helped the GOP in 2004, I believe.

[abigailsmybaby]

And all because he was never a governor. Just damn.

[WellyP]

That would be a GREAT “free floater”...I want one!

[STARWISE]

Hey rod!! Quite an exciting
day ... I got nothing done and
my butt is numb ... ;)

[abigailsmybaby]

That’s a good one!

[DrewsMum]

thank you for much needed laugh... brought me to tears...

[abigailsmybaby]

Yep! There should be some smokin’ keyboards in Republican land.
