cough oil cough

Take a look at gas prices. During a huge majority of his office terms, gas was high as fuck.

Now today as I was driving, I saw gas back at 1.99. Why? Because the Old cunt rag is about to be out of office so he wants to make himself look like a good guy? Fuckin whore if you ask me.

You seriously think Bush single handedly made gas prices rise so he could profit and totally disregard the country he's leading? ROFL I'm not a fan of the guy but that's just a retarded claim.

Yup didn't get a 3.8gpa in highschool, didn't get a 29 on the ACT, and didn't get over $100k in Scholarships, damn I am dumb :icon_albino: You're the one working at a gas station right? Sorry I just don't like people questioning my intelligence.

So what? You couldn't even pull off a 4.0. 29 on the ACT is nothing to shout about. I slept through half of the fucking test, didn't take any sort of prep class and got a 25. Whooptie fucking doo

[Bassplayer]

Well I worked hard for that. That's good for you that you were able to not do anything and get an above average score. Now CMK would you pick Bush or Obama?

[Guest]

CMK would pick Bush...guaranteed.

Did I say he raised gas prices all by himself? No I didn't so shut it. I said he played a huge roll in it. If you don't believe it, so be it. It's pretty blatant.

The only way he had any affect was due to deficit spending and borrowing from foreign entities...and that in itself did not lead to gas increases. However, by weakening the US dollar it sent investors scrambling to find a fairly secure commodity that was sought the world over...which lead to Oil and Gold prices sky rocketing.

Ok, that is the readers digest abridged version, but I hope most of you can fill in a few of the blanks and take it for what it is.

It's easy to say that it's obvious without backing a single claim you make.

Good response..

Basically you can blame the booming 3rd world economies that are finally driving vehicles more. China played a huge role... I'm sure with them having the Summer Olympics played an even larger role in the peak of our oil barrels. Also investors play a role.. When the dollar is weak, foreign investors buy and wait for the dollar to gain strength & they sell it off.

[Sweet-WRX-Lovin]

I would like to be represented by someone who can speak well at the very least.

Congress, Cheif economist, Wall street, etc...blame them, they had most of the final decisions on things.

since when does congress, the cheif economist, and wall street decide on sending people to iraq to start a war?

Like i said the only thing bush is good at is wasting money and getting people killed..

no one can prove that he's done any good.

[integra_gsr98]

Bush doesn't just say GO and the military goes. Congress has plenty of say in ordering the military around.

[Rexwagon]

The president can order troops to deploy to do combat for up to 180 days before congress can stop them

It is just uneducated people like you that just jump to blame the president about everything. The war he definately can be partly blamed for...the rest is a collabarative effort by our government.

President = figurehead.

Congress is where the real issue lies. The only REAL power the President has is the veto and ability to appoint judges. But again, those can either be overridden or have to be approved by Congress.
