i remember 17 years ago, while i was just returning home from the gulf war, that we had done the right thing,,,,,,
we kept a mad man from over running not just kuwait but also saudi arabia so that one unreliable person could not have control of a major share of the worlds' oil supply because heaven forbid, the price could be help captive and maybe go to $60 or $70 dollars a barrel. hummmmmmm

I will know that the President is serious when he cuts out playing golf! That will let the world know that he is in sinc with our troops and our economy.

What? He already did? wow, we must be better off therefore.

We need a leader. Someone who can persuade the American people to cut back on their use of gas and oil.

If won't be Bush. And probably not Hillary, since she showed no brains with her gas tax holiday idea. McCain beat her to that one, so he is out.

It leaves us with the new guy, Obama. He is on the dime, so to speak. I hope he leads us, because the others are clowns about this energy business.
