MUST READ: You Want Lower Gas Prices?
By Tom DeLay
If Congressional Republicans allow Nancy Pelosi and her Democrats to skirt responsibility for rising gas prices, they will once again earn the time-honored mantle of “The Stupid Party.” Two years ago this week, Nancy Pelosi – as part of a concerted campaign of opportunistic mendacity – said she and her party had a “commonsense plan to help bring down skyrocketing gas prices.” Their "plan" conveniently came to fruition after Democrats voted against a comprehensive energy plan that would increase fuel production and open up untapped oil reserves.

Thats right, we have no right to complain about the high cost of oil. Time marches on and $5 gallon gas is just another indicator of how time flies.
Great logic.
