PromoTheRobot Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 Anyone remember the last time gas was under $2 a gallon? If you said "election day 2006" you'd be correct. But it's totally a coincidence. The oil companies would never dream of influencing elections. Neither would a major retailer that employs thousands. PTR
ExiledInIllinois Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 Americans have a short attention span... Lower fuel now, and the status quo can be upheld. Just saying... And NO it IS NOT a big conspiracy... It is just the way the market can be manipulated. Oh, PTR... You know you are opening up yourself to some crazy attacks! Oh, also... The last 8 years... My neighbor (accountant for a private company) was told in no uncertain terms to vote Republican... Who is to say he did or didn't, yet the company at least threw it out there...
DrDawkinstein Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 allow me to be the first to say... "here go those stupid liberals again"
ExiledInIllinois Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 allow me to be the first to say... "here go those stupid liberals again" I agree with you Dr. But man, what can you say if it dips below 3 to go back to 4 again? Just a strange market quinky dink? Me myself? I would love to see it dip and watch all the dumb Americans forget... Keep the status quo and watch things sink deeper into the abyss... Then watch them blame "liberalism" from 12 plus years ago... There is only one thing that will pull us out from under and it is going to take more than we have been seeing to start a groundswell... Just saying.

PromoTheRobot Posted August 4, 2008 Author Posted August 4, 2008 Lenin once said that liberals were useful idiots... Karl Rove said they are handy scapegoats. PTR
Max Fischer Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 Lenin once said that liberals were useful idiots... Of course Lenin never said such a thing about "liberals." But facts would never stop ideologues like you.

SD Jarhead Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 OR, if Israel attacks Iran (and they try to shut down the Strait of Hormuz), we could see $8.00 a gallon gas by the election...
stuckincincy Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 http://leninology.blogspot.com/2008/02/not...ful-idiots.html That's a dandy site, eh?
stuckincincy Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 Look it up. You refuted - look it up for me.
ExiledInIllinois Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 Lenin once said that liberals were useful idiots... You know you are talking about Lenin?
Chilly Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 You refuted - look it up for me. Person who makes the claim has to back it up.
ExiledInIllinois Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 OR, if Israel attacks Iran (and they try to shut down the Strait of Hormuz), we could see $8.00 a gallon gas by the election... Just like before we attacked Iraq... They said our troops were going to be gassed...
Max Fischer Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 You know you are talking about Lenin? Little difference between the far right and left.
Max Fischer Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 Person who makes the claim has to back it up. In my best Maxwell Smart voice: "Ah, the old say and make it true trick."
Nervous Guy Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 Person who makes the claim has to back it up. what a bunch of frickin' idiots... (Moe gets ready to slap Shemp, Larry foolishly intervenes) Larry:"Hey, pick on someone your size!" Moe(Slightly amused):"You want me to pick on you?" Larry(acting tough):"Yeah, I want you to pick on me!" (at this point Moe dismisses him as unimportant and turns back to Shemp) Larry(proudly to himself):"Ahh I knew I'd bluff him..." (Moe then proceeds to kick Larry from behind)-3 Stooges here you go...this HAS to be the truth. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Useful_idiot
