The Price of Gasoline

The say that part of the reason
why a barrel of oil and gasoline
prices are so high is due to the
Government flooding the market with
new money to support an old war that
seems to have no end in sight.

Every bond that our Government sells
to China extends the war for another
day, devalues the American dollar,
and increases the price of gasoline
just a little more...how many more
"mores" can we endure?

And just to think that the President---bless him!---chided his public for being addicted to oil, he said nothing about his fellow oilmen being addicted to excessive profits!

Keep up the good work,

Poems about politics may be very interesting, governments should handle this problem a little closer, but sometimes presidents prefer imitate their papa and go to war, poor mister Bush...

  Have a nice day

Nowadays, a pot of oil has taken the place of the proverbial pot of gold!

James,

I can't even respond - I am too angry about all of this.
