Who gives a f*ck?
Posted by: Europe | Jun 8, 2008 1:44:21 PM
Here are some prices for a gallon of gas across Europe.
England- Diesel $11.00 / gallon
France - Super Unleaded $9.00 / gallon
Denmark - Super $8.50 / gallon
Are those prices Bush's fault as well?
Posted by: JO | Jun 8, 2008 8:59:25 PM
The price of gas in the US went up 400% since Bush took office, but you want to talk about Europe? Snapperhead, the reason the price of gas in Europe looks like it's doubled is because the US dollar lost 60% of it's value under Bush. In Euro's the price has barely been affected.
JO, another Bush defending dummy.

Sandy - try a more relevant statistic ...
The price of gas went up how much from January, 2001, to January, 2007 ... and how much from January, 2007, until now ?
Hmmm ... what changed in January, 2007 ?
I'll give you a hint - it wasn't the incumbent President ...

Jo - you'll learn, in the remaining time this blog is around, that Our Sandy isn't the sharpest shar-pei in the pound ... to those with BDS, pretty much everything bad is Bush's fault ...
Supernova a thousand parsecs away ? It was Bush and his AGW policies on behalf of Halliburton ...
Posted by: Alasdair | Jun 9, 2008 6:49:22 PM
Alice, the price of gas went up a dollar over the last 12 months, and it went up 3 dollars the previous 6 years. Is this an attempt to deflect any responsibility from the President? Because if it is you're losing, again, on that one.
