WTF!?

[cboy4]

1. They just can't stop themselves from diving into

the gutter day after day with their propaganda. :puke:

[bahrbearian]

2. What were the prices when Clinton was is office?

[walldude]

4. $18 a barrel when Clinton left office.. now nearly $100 a barrel..

These people have no shame... And whats worse is their audience buys this shit no matter how far fetched.

[rodeodance]

3. as i recall, the WH said oil prices will go down when we invade Iraq

[Shipwack]

5. Yep... Bush said he could control gas prices...

He boasted in a debate that he was an oil man, he knew how the market functioned. If gas was the insanely high price of $1.35 a gallon, it was because Clinton wanted it that way. :eyes:

[jimshoes]

7. That's right,

pResident dimwit said he'd "jawbone" the Saudi's into opening up the spigots when things got tight. Well, are things tight enough yet?

[Howardx]

19. he said he would

"jawbone the saudis" if i remember correctly.

[nonconformist]

6. As opposed to the, what, 200% increase since little Lord Pisspants took office?

These people are really incredible.

[tridim]

8. Next week's Faux poll: "Who do you think is responsible for high gas prices"

60% - The Democrats in Congress
38% - The Terrorists
2% - No opinion

[DesertFlower]

9. fair and balanced news, my ass.

[Rosemary2205]

10. Laughing my freakin butt off.

The comedy over there never stops.

[abq e streeter]

14. Me too----needed a good laugh; thanks for the OP

those idiots ( wait, am I referring to Faux or their audience? ) are really getting desperate , even for them...

[SeattleGirl]

11. Wow! For once, they aren't blaming The Clenis.

:rofl:

[Bitwit1234]

12. Oh gee since bush stole office gas has gone from $1.50 some

cents a gallon to 3.00 that's double. AND goodness I didn't know Nancy Pelosi, the speaker of the House ran the country, I thought bush and band of monsters did..Learn something new every day. Why doesn't she just automatically close down the war in Iraq then, if she is all that powerful and lock bush's ass up where he belongs.

[kelligesq]

13. Yeah but they dont mention it's up 100% since dimwit stole the election. n/t

n/t

[Canuckistanian]

15. And there was no increase BEFORE that. Right?

And what, exactly, did Nancy do to increase those prices, hmmm?

Personally walk into Exxon's boardroom and threaten them?

[tabasco]

16. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

The only bigger joke than Fox News is the morons who watch it and believe it!!

[appleannie1]

17. They pander to an audience of dumbasses

So they know they can make statements like that and they will be jumped on as truth.

[scarface2004]

18. neil cavuto is a 72% bigger asshole...

since nancy was picked!!

[The Backlash Cometh]

20. Republicans are such sleaze bags.

[Didereaux]

21. Strangely they may have a point...here's why

Had Pelosi acted aggressively on DEMOCRATIC issues and not failed in stopping the administrations wishes...then it is highly probably that the oil companies and producers would have been far less aggressive in their rape of America. Think about it, there is a lot to be said for that line of reasoning. Certainly not what Faux had in mind though, that is a certainty! ;)

[Solar_Power]

22. Politicians don't care about gas prices

Big Oil bought them all

[Alcibiades]

23. Everyone knows the Speaker of the House is responsible

for setting gas prices. All Bush can do is to "jawbone OPEC."

So Pelosi is responsible and Bush isn't? Same old formula: zero accountability. Blame Democrats for all policy failures, own on;y your successes. Which becomes really hard when you haven't any.

[silvershadow]

24. DU Alert: Gas prices up 200% since this administration took office. n/t
