Bush and his buddies are making out like bandits right now. I wonder what ever happened to bush going to tell them Saudi's to open up the spigots?

1. Paid $2.899 this evening in Aurora, IL
Figured I'd keep the tank filled in case the gas panic spreads...

14. The fuel gauge reading well below "E"....
normally I would have gone one more exit to the Exxon, but I had to go LBJ West to the Galleria area, and its hard to get back on. Believe me...I got only about 3 gallons.

7. I just checked here in San Antonio it's 2.65 at diamond shamrock
on the corner, up from 2.42 on sunday. Why doesn't bush have his oil exec buddies cut their profit margins by 20%(thanks O'Liely) until this crisis passes? He wants us to dig deep and donate to the relief efforts. Why can't he help us out, us who are not the 'HAVES AND HAVE MORES'?
