I thought Bush was going to raise them after the election.
The price of Oil fell down 2 dollars today.
What happened?

Gas could go below 2 dollars a gallon SOON.

Where I live gas started climbing again. Is that Bush having a fit? Is it possibly the fact that the oil producing countries decided to jack the price of crude knowing when the democrats take control in January they will not fight back?

Gas at the pump has gone up in the last few days here in NC. I know you are trying to get one on the libs, but if you really understand the gas/oil situation you would know that the same force that made the price go up, made it go down and willl make it go up again. MONEY!

Don't worry, they'll go up again soon. The oil companies have to lure everyone into a false sense of security. If they continue to raise prices whilst people are pointing this out, they'll have to answer for their crimes. This way, they can simply say "See, we're making it better!". Just wait until the next natural disaster or American invasion of a middle eastern country, it'll shoot up again. And while the lower and middle class workers (you know, the ones who actually have to pay for their fuel, who don't have 'company cars' and the like) are emptying their pockets so they can get to work and feed their families, Exxon will have yet another quarter of record-breaking PROFITS.

Where for crying out loud, my gas is up 30 cents a gallons since the election. I want to move where you live.

The theory of Bush manipulating gas prices was far-fetched. However, he sure as hell didn't do anything to stop them from climbing to $3 when the Big Oil produces RECORD BREAKING PROFITS FOR THREE STRAIGHT QUARTERS!!!

wait until Bush starts talking tough about Iran again... speculators will fill their pants and the price will skyrocket...
and if you notice, the price of oil is often dropping on the market, while it goes up at the pump... wierd?
