Gas Gone Wild

“With gas prices being what they are, a family could vacation here with all the amenities and save a whole lot of money.”

One in three American families will be altering their vacation plans this year due to soaring gas prices, according to a survey conducted by USA Today. via Marshall County Tribune-Courier

Stop buying it! It's that simple. Ride your bike whenever possible or walk. The reason for this madness is because it's been allowed to go on.

Bush will leave nothing for the people of this nation when he leaves. He's ruined every company he's had his hands on...why on earth would anyone vote for this Moron.

I just wish that what he has caused would only effect those fools who allowed him to be given the white House in the 1st. election & all those that were so afraid of the big bad wolf that voted for him the 2nd time around.

Aren't Christians supposed to only Fear God? FOr everyone of you that elected him because of the bad guy's coming to get us...better Pray more than ever because you lost your Faith & Soul the day he was elected. Lord knows he knows nothing of Politics.

Your comments about George bush being the problem behind the high gas prices is nothing but non-sense. We have enough petroleum reserves here in the USA that we dont have to rely on the middle east for oil. But we cant use those reserves because the environMENTALists have lobbied and petitioned to have have those reserves classified as off limits to the oil and gas companies.

The only way to stop the rising gas prices is to do what was done about the high prices on the english tea back a couple hundred years ago. Remember the boston tea party...thats the american way of practical protest.
Pull the gasoline tankers over on the side of the road and set them on fire. If there is a police escort accompanying the gasoline tankers pull the escort vehicle over and set it on fire also.

Oh yea...far better idea than to just stop buying it for 1 day.

As far as your nonsense comment....I hold the idiot in the White House responsible for everything that has gone wrong in this nation since he was handed the Presidency. Which includes 9/11....

He's ruined every company he's ever has his hands on & now he's ruined this nation....

I think that alot of people are making alot of money somewhere. They take advantage of us! I don't think that it is in the white house, it is the money hungry gas company's who want to take everyone money. And get rich!!

Gas prices being so high is why many have cut back on their driving. I know for us, we do not go to the grocery once a week, and if we run out of something, we have learned to do without or buy extra. But with gas prices still rising, even groceries have skyrocketed.

To quote my sister in law who voted for him..."he had the same morals as I do." meaning he is antichoice. When we discussed the upcoming elections, she said she will vote Repub again, because of the same reasons. I simply stared at her and said, "Gee, yes, let's vote for our leaders based on a law they cannot change, and try to save the poor women from having abortions...meanwhile, my kids can starve because I can't afford groceries, and I can quit my job because I can't afford gas, so I won't be able to pay the electricity, and therefore won't be able to cook, clean, or pretty much do anything." She said "It would never get that bad. DUH, it already is. Some people honestly believe that electing officials should be a moral popular voting system.
