QUOTE Story Highlights -President Bush says victory in Iraq necessary to demonstrate U.S. resolve -Bush says removing Saddam Hussein from power was the right decision -Bush marks the fifth anniversary of the Iraq war with a speech at Pentagon -The president praises the so-called surge of U.S. troops in Iraq Hmmm. Two Pennies: At this point in the game, we must see this fight through. The accrued debt, the lives at stake, and the foundation built in Iraq prohibit the U.S. from pulling troops out of Middle Eastern hostile zones. I never supported the war in Iraq from a political standpoint because the motives were just too unclear. Pardon my wording, but now, I'm just balls deep in this bitch and I don't have a choice. Thoughts? |

Thoughts? I just wanna know why is gas still rising, specially when we're colonizing parts of the Middle East? And why do we have to pay 12 billion a month to support our killing machine? Where's Bin Laden? Good job! Bush. =\ |

Good job! Bush. =\ I think it's plateaued. It's started to drop again in our area. It got to a point where people were like "f**k this, I'm just not gonna drive as much". There is more carpooling, too. The higher the gas gets, the harder it's gonna fall. People will start spending more and more of their paycheck on gas, and because of that they don't have as much to spend on luxuries. When they aren't buying the luxuries, they aren't driving to the places that sell them. When they aren't driving, they don't buy as much gas. When the gas stations don't get money from the gas, they lower prices. |
