How can he? He has nothing to do with how much people buy. The gas goes down every winter/people don't travel as much as they do in the summer. Gas goes up in the summer because that's when family's travel the most. Product and demand is the way prices work...If everyone wants a certain item then prices go up, if no one wants that item the price will go down do to the demand for that product....NO the president has nothing to do with gas prices!

I used to think that the war in Iraq was to get their oil, but I think I was wrong given the events of this last summer. I think the strategy was to invade a mid eastern country and cause turmoil and the PRICE of oil goes up and the profits. Bush and his family are invested in oil so the profits go up to them also. Yes, I think that George W. Bush is deeply in the pockets of the oil company's

Of course his hand is in the oil companies pocket. So much so he is so willingly taking advantage of his role as the president of this country and using the constitutional amendments to implement his executive powers.
By passing laws that will allow him to spy on this country so that its easier to maintain in the event of an uprising.
Think about it? The only way to do so is by in fact engaging in on a war that cannot ultimately be won is by engaging a war against terrorist. The only way to do this is by in fact being attacked on our own soil and it has been done. Therefore, we have justifiable reasons to go to war, we did, the war spread throughout and landed in Iraq. The one place that stands between Kuwait and Saudi Arabia and all the oil between the three it poses. Put a major Pipe line in connecting the 3 and well there is a lot of money power to be gained.
The united states Is the belly of the beast and it has grown on the idealist dream of being a world power and now it wants it all.

We're staying in Iraq because he makes money for every day we spend there. He makes it on the weapons he sells to other countries, the oil, and several other import/export deals he has going on. You have to think not only about how the government benefits but how HE himself benefits (look at the types of companies he owns)

Despite the popular view the Republican party supports big business and the wealthy. Look at the support they receive from big business, look at the proposal to do away with the estate tax. Despite what the propaganda says the estate tax does not affect more than 1% of the population who happen to be worth more than $4,000,000. The only little people who get caught by it are those who ahve their head in the sand and don't understand te law. I don't think that the middle class understands that the government needs yor tax dollars and the largest % of the population who can provide these dollars is the middle class.

I agree with Gunner2za. Just because you live in America, doesn't mean you have to agree with the government. If you want to support your government, then there has to be a change in the next election. We are stuck with Bush's insanities for the next 2 years. There needs to be some change when he's no longer president.
