"All our great Presidents were leaders of thought at times when certain historic ideas in the life of the nation had to be clarified." -Franklin D. Roosevelt, September 11, 1932

George & Dick's Windfall

Oil prices have reached record highs yet again. I'm sure George and Dick, both Texas oil men, couldn't be more pleased.

But I wonder...when those 62,040,610 Bush voters head to the gas station and pay $75.00 to $100.00 to fill the gas tanks of their SUVs, do they still feel the pride? Is their Republican president still the apple of their eye?

Do they realize if a "President Gore" had presided over such a huge increase in gas prices they would have thrown him out of the White House without hesitation?
