What happened to the

"If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention" bumper stickers?

My problem is barrell of oil price to gallon of gas. And the lack of consistancy to attention of this by the media. This isn't about D or R as much to me as another example of the dinosaur media.

ZRX,
This is not being covered so much because there is no money in it. I get my ass spanked on here daily for being a butthole, but in my own way, I'm just trying to get people to THINK. I respond in kind to how they treat me, and some get it, but most don't.

A couple weeks ago, I was on some rant about how the news networks lie to us to sell stories (I was using Beck and his anti medicaid bs, that is followed by free electric cart ads), and I got DMV so angry he just about blew the caps off of his beer collection in his oh-so scarily clean closet.

The fact is, nobody gives a crap about gas prices right now because the economy, for a short time is somewhat stable (No thanks of course to our dumb president....and I say that only to shut DMV and potts up and hope they don't jack this post). There are much more important things to talk about on the news that the advertisers have told the networks to talk about. I used to date a gal that did advertising for a major network. Not so much "when" ads are run, but rather WHAT the story is, was what most of her clients were interested in.

Blow up your tv.

Peace.

Tailgater you were doing fine until you brought the right/left bs back into it. Making blanket statements that supposedly HALF of the USA enjoys these higher gas prices is utter foolishness. Come on man, look a bit deeper than what Fox is telling you.

Don't ignore the point of this thread.

And I'm not sure why you fixate on Fox so much. You seem to get off on deflecting any opinion that differs from yours onto a single television news network.
It is well past boring at this point.

I'd love to see $3/gal prices. On base is at $3.29 and off base is $3.69.

Have I ever mentioned how much I hate Hawaii?

Gimbel, 3.15$/gal here in southern Oregon last week. And Oregon legislature is raising gas tax 6 cents per gallon Jan 1st.

But there is no inflation, the gubment says so.

And they wouldn't lie to us, would they?

It hit three bucks a gallon again today.

I guess this is Idi Amin Jr.'s payback to all his rich oil buddies. Its little wonder why Boy Wonder bowed down to the Saudi king and licked his shoes clean.

Why don't we have a 70 mpg car right now? Idi Amin Jr. already rules a major automotive manufacturer?

Where are all of the electric cars he promised?

Let's face it: people who voted for Idi Amin Jr. ended up voting for a Radical Muslim with strong Saudi ties, who is raping this country in order to make obscene profits for his rich oil buddies.

Jpots, come on you know dam well where the electric cars are or are not and why... Certainly not his fault, they are coming in there oun time as the market and tech develop.

We all knew as the economy improved so would gas prices... Been $3 + here in S. Florida for a while. $3.18 across the street as of last night.. But it's 80 degrees and sunny outside, so driving without the top along the beach seems to make the price of gas not so important...

My wifes Lease is up the end of April, for the first time she said maybe we should look at a 4cly or Hybrid...NOW that's a change.

It's not complacency.
It's selective outrage.

$3 gas under GWB = being in cahoots with big oil.
$3 gas under BHO = market conditions.
