    but then how are they going to get rid of the trillon dollar defict AND pay for the war!

    you wouldn't be the first one. Its taking longer to get our shipments in at work and some of our shipping costs have gone up 10% in the past month. I'm just worried truckers are going to start striking soon. They did it before but the costs on disel is even worse then for unleaded...

    I could say more but I think a political debate is not what the boards need...

    ...lube is overrated - it gets everwhere!

    Another story on the local and national news tonight about gas prices. They are saying we are going to start seeing higher prices for food, clothing, and basically everything because transportation costs are causing companies to increase prices. They also said premium gas is at $3.49 a gallon in CA.

    I pay $26 dolllars to fill up my tank. My car only takes premium too which kills me. I do a lot of driving to for my mom, to school, and to work. It all adds up!:_| :_|

    ARRIBA!!!!!! Bring down the capitalist swine!!!!

    I agree, prices are going up but salaries are staying as they are, and the gov't is sitting around just doing nothing. Crappy government needs to stick it to the oil tycoons!

    I may just get a gas powered scooter if this continues. Its pretty bad when even the economy cars are getting hit in the pocket book.

    I'm sure the price will dip a little after labor day, it always does, but it will still be wicked high. The French are paying like $5.50 a gallon right now.(the wind drag on those white flags hanging on thier cars must be terrible on gas mileage)

    don't the french buy in litres? I know they do in canada and england and i thought most of europe... so they are normally paying 4 - 6 times as much in gas all the time...

    and rememeber this war isn't over oil, this war was created over a pack of lies.

    I think that this might apply.

    The AP and UPI reported that the French Government announced after the
    London bombings that it has raised its terror alert level from Run to
    Hide. The only two higher levels in France are Surrender and
    Collaborate.

    The rise was precipitated by a recent fire which destroyed France's
    white flag factory, effectively disabling their military....
