Does it bother anyone else what Romney says?

I feel like hes pandering to the average idiot by saying something like that.

While factually correct it is a completely dishonest thing to say and very misleading to the uninformed.

Facts be damned. It's what sounds good that counts.

Speaking of Gas ,Gas prices have fallen over 40 cents in just 7 days here in OKC, Amazing.

 

[racerboy71]

[sniffer]

vote no on mitt , , vote yes for the other guy i guess

 

[Balzac89]

11 cents here but i would blame it on weakness in the market.

and i have to say with a name like racerboy, i'm a car junkie through and through, but we really need to do something about the continued use of fossil fuels to power them imvo..
look at all of the other advances in technology in the last century alone, yet we stand by the combustion engine and the use of fossil fuels like that's the only way to power a car.. and don't even get me started on electric cars ffs, that technology is even older then the internal combustion engine and in no way a step forward, but rather a step back imo..

Lot of old technology that we don't utilize.

bush did a great job of repairing the price of gas, getting it all the way down to $1.80 or so. and all he had to do was crash the living mother fuck out of the economy.

In the summer of '03, I remember paying about $1.50 per in Nevada, then $2.12 per in California. Same day. Final day of a coast-to-coast (to-coast, if you count the Great Lakes) bike trip. cn

Good ole talking points Buckie, Buckie want a cracker? LOL
Anyone that would buy into the fact that our gas prices fell because the economy plunged, doesn't know jack shit about economics but I'm sure the intelligent people on here already caught that.

go ahead and explain why gas prices plunged suddenly and violently in complete lockstep with the recession without citing the recession, clayton.

Gas prices here were at just above four bucks a month ago. Then, three weeks ago, they spiked up to $4.60 in about a week, and have been steadily dropping. Today I saw $4.25, so the spike has not yet been fully undone. I see no downtrend. cn

It's a bitch when you find out you're not the intellectual you thought you were, isn't it. LOL
