prices creeping up in the grocery stores

I like to keep a pizza in the freezer for a treat when the grand kids come over. well I bought one last week for $2.99 and yesterday it was $3.09. boneless chicken breasts were $1.79 last week,$3.09 yesterday.
Seems like every time the republicans occupy the white house prices sky-rocket.
lets put conservatives back in the white house; their called democrats today.
fema,homeland security,iraq war and Halliburton need to become a thing of the past!
we can start by retiring sen. collins! she represents the waste we've had these past few years.

1. With the money it's taking to ship the food up here now...
Due to the oil prices, it's understandable that it's costing more for food...We seem to be getting it from all sides in Maine, heating oil, gas (for us rural folks that's hurting BAD...even with my Ford Focus, I'm going through $35-$40 a week in gas as I have a 35 mile drive to work), and now food and other necessities...We do a LOT of comparison shopping, and load up when things we like are on sale (i.e. the chicken breasts...we bought 10 pounds last week at the $1.79 price).

I truly agree on Susan Collins...we have an excellent candidate in Tom Allen, and she can definitely be beat (just put up her lies about her term limits, lying about not supporting Bush when she takes the Republican Party line every time, etc. and people here will vote her out).

I've always been economically conservative (i.e. if you don't have it, DON'T SPEND IT!), and socially liberal. Talk about the exact opposite residing in the white house...

2. what can u expect

third generation government teat sucker from same family he knows how to waste our money
and you can be sure some of it stuck to his jeans along the way but you won't find it.
check out his grandfather and the tobacco industry. look at his administration and ties to oil companies.
then look at the "rush" and "lauras" and all their copy cats. what could be more n-american then that bunch.
they pedal hatred spoon fed to them by the corrupt so they can continue to rip us off and thumb their noses at decent people.
