[DMCForum] Re: Kerry...

If you think back to Gore/Bush campaign, One of Bush's big 
criticisms of the Gore/Clinton administration was that gas prices 
were on the rise due to Gore's environmental policy and Clinton's 
energy policy.

"Gore during a speech: "It's time to put our feet on the brakes of 
what may well be Big Oil's price gouging."

Bush's campaign was swift in firing back, blaming the rise in prices 
on the Administration's energy policy as well as Gore's crusade for 
stringent clean-air fuel, which is at the center of fast-rising fuel 
prices in the Midwest."

So did Bush waffle on this and decide that $1.50 was too cheap and 
$1.90 was better?  Or did he just lie and fool us to believing he 
could do something about it?  I guess Bush's energy and 
environmental policies aren't as good as Clinton/Gore?  Or is it 
that most of what politicians claim they are going to make better 
they really have no control over?

I'm not a Clinton/Gore fan either so don't bother trying to tear 
down their argument.  Their argument just further proves my point 
that neither side had any control over gas prices.  Even all of 
Bush's a$$ kissing to the Saudi's hasn't brought gas down to the 
price it was when Clinton/Gore were in office.  Why kiss the Saudi's 
a$$es anyway?  We get most of our oil from Mexico, Venezuela and 
Canada anyway.

P.S.  If you want to buy gas from companies that import the least or 
no oil from the Middle East buy from Sinclair, Sunoco and Citgo.
