Dear George...

Hey man, just expressing my opinion. Didn't think my harsh perspective is more damaging in words then in reality, yet even here you get dictated on what to say and not to, guess someone decided for me what I'm saying is socially acceptable or not rather allowing freedom of speech!

What I said is what I mean and how I truly feel !

You seem to have missed the fact that every time we have a rate cut it increases the price of oil at least $2.00/gallon. A lot if the increases in Oil in the past year have been caused by bad moves by the Fed. It's not just the demand, there is a lot of market and financial manipulation going on right now. The average JQP is not aware of this, and therefore not screaming to their representatives about it. So it continues.

I missed what you said, it got posted and removed while I was writing a response. Seems to me you could have expressed your opinion in a way that doesn't jeopardize the thread. Give it another shot if you have some points to make.

Dear Mr G "Dubya" Bush

Your going straight to hell matey

Bye George!

Many people are falling for the second line of your statement, "What does explain things domestically is a huge increase in Oil prices".

What you are missing my friend is unbelievable increase in oil company profits. Billions of dollars in increased profits. If the increase in the cost of gasoline were only due to the increase in the cost of a barrell of oil, the profits of the oil companies would not increase at all.

Alas the oil companies see the increase in the price of crude oil as an opportunity to rape the american consumer and lay the blame on the world's oil producers. You don't need to be an economist to see this.

It is sad to me to not hear the MSM proffering this information. Instead they come out every day declaring that gas will soon be, $3.50, $4.00, $5.00 a gallon (up and up and up), and everytime they do it do you think the oil companies are not going to say, "Ok, they expect it, raise it again"?

Someone needs to intervene in these vulgar oil company profits. That's where the paramount blame lies, not in the cost of a barrell of oil.

Yeah but we are talking about Bush not China.Would you agree that Bush is a lousy president?

I think the words to Pink's song "Dear Mr. President" sum up my thoughts quite nicely...

Dear Mr. President,
Come take a walk with me.
Let's pretend we're just two people and
You're not better than me.
I'd like to ask you some questions if we can speak honestly.

What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street?
Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep?
What do you feel when you look in the mirror?
Are you proud?

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye
And tell me why?

Dear Mr. President,
Were you a lonely boy?
Are you a lonely boy?
Are you a lonely boy?
How can you say
No child is left behind?
We're not dumb and we're not blind.
They're all sitting in your cells
While you pave the road to hell.

What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away?
And what kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay?
I can only imagine what the first lady has to say
You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine.

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye?

Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Building a bed out of a cardboard box
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
You don't know nothing 'bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
Oh

How do you sleep at night?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Dear Mr. President,
You'd never take a walk with me.
Would you?

I apologize for going off topic above,

Dear George,

You used 911 for your own ends to inspire nationalism and wrapped your greed filled buddies in the American flag. You handed out no-bid contracts to your cronies in the billions and they couldn't even perform on the contracts you just handed to them. You bancrupted the US and put us in debt to China to make sure you and your cronies became even richer. No one was able to criticize them or you and if they did they were traitors who dared question the President in a time of war. You "Dixie-Chicked" them. You lied to the American people about WMD and when you were found out you blamed bad intelligence, but I remember when you were shown any intelligence that said there were no WMDs, you hid that intelligence and/or fired those who showed it to you and even had your cohorts out a CIA operative to discredit her husband who said there were no WMDs. You make me sick to my stomach. I do however get some satisfaction that your BS just doesn't work on the majority of the American people anymore. I find it funny to watch you try to lie and those who where once stifled by your "anti-patriotism" rhetoric will now call you on it.

You Sir are deplorable, an embarrassment to this great nation, and if anyone is a traitor it is you! I truly hope you get what you deserve, in this life or the next.
