KerryEdwards: George W. Bush Standing Still While Oil Prices Skyrocket

[Nambe]

U.S. Newswire

George W. Bush has done nothing while oil prices have skyrocketed to record highs, day after day. These record prices threaten our economy and put the squeeze on consumers already struggling with lower wages and higher costs for health care and college tuition. With prices nearing $50 a barrel, isn't it time for the president to do something?

New York Senator Chuck Schumer made the following statement today:

"If high oil prices were Olympic events, George Bush would win medals. He's fiddling while Rome is burning. Economists of all stripes say high prices are hurting the economy and what is Bush doing? Absolutely nothing. John Kerry has a plan to lower gas prices and move America towards energy independence." ..

details follow:

1. Bush will simply fire back that Kerry wants to raise gas taxes

the media will repeat this for him, and he'll shrug it off like just about everything else in his life.

2. Be careful what you ask for.

The next time Bush does something we may be paying $90 a barrel. The man could f'up a wet dream.

3. tell me how OBL isn't winning

this is the quickest way to destroy our economy.

once our economy is destroyed we cannot project our power into arabia.

then arabia becomes a paradise of medieval repression & misogyny.

i hope kerry understands this, because assclown sure as shit doesn't get it. the stakes is high.

4. "fiddling around!" PERFECT..maybe Bush can come up with a

high gas price joke like his missing WMD's? When the chips are down, make a joke of it!
