Is anyone else curious about
why gas prices fall right before elections in the US?
Gas prices have begun their predictable fall prior to November's elections. Even though Russia is bombing Georgia right in the heart of oil and pipeline country. If an election weren't on the horizon, this type of "uncertainty" would cause gas prices to soar.
I think it is pretty obvious that the people who control the gas/oil prices don't want voters to be thinking about gas prices when they vote.
Never forget that Big Oil and the GOP have picked our pockets! They are betting that we have no long term memories!
6 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoDoes the fact that John Edwards had an affair
hurt Anne Coulter's credibility? She after all, called John Edwards a fa66ot. People who bought Anne's book about the "Godless Liberals", do you have any thoughts on this? Or are you too busy planning which Church to shoot up to kill more "Godless Liberals" because they are "ruining America"?
4 AnswersLaw & Ethics1 decade agoHow do McCain and Obama?
differ when it comes to taxes?
McCain: The average taxpayer in every income group would see a lower tax bill, but high-income taxpayers would benefit more than everyone else.
Obama: High-income taxpayers would pay more in taxes, while everyone else's tax bill would be reduced. Those who benefit the most - in terms of reducing their taxes as a percentage of after-tax income - are in the lowest income groups.
So, it looks like 98% of Americans would benefit with Obama in the White house, while 2% would benefit with McCain.
11 AnswersOther - Politics & Government1 decade agoHave you noticed that only the?
lunatic fringe denies global warming? Even McCain admits that we MUST act now to slow the emissions of greenhouse gases. I think the problem is that the deniers have been denying global warming for so long it has become an issue of pride for them. Admitting they were SO wrong, SO misled, and SO lied to is just too embarrassing for them.
12 AnswersGlobal Warming1 decade agoAnyone planning to vote R?
If you are, thanks! For keeping the dream of $10 a gallon gas alive!! The GOP just blocked democratic legislation that would have taken back some of the record profits WE'VE paid to the oil companies to do some good for US, the American tax payer and gasoline buyer. Wake up! The Republicans are NOT for you and me! They are for big oil!
21 AnswersElections1 decade agoBush just stated that Global?
Warming is real. Does this mean that the Republicans have been LYING to us for the last 8 years? (Hint: the answer is yes.)
9 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoWhy don't we all stop buying?
gas at Exxon, after a few days, I predict they will lower their price to pressure us to buy gas from them. Then we should stop buying gas at BP, they will lower their price to compete with Exxon, and so on. It is time for us to DO something! We are getting raped!
7 AnswersCorporations1 decade agoMy 14 yr old chihuahua is?
deathly afraid of flies. When a fly gets in the house, he LOSES it and starts pacing around with his ears back in the "disturbed" position and begs to go outside and refuses to come back in. Have you ever seen this? And if so, do you have any suggestions?
5 AnswersDogs1 decade agoWhat are the "conservative" liars like Rush Limpbough saying about global warming now?
Are they still trying to say that the world is cooling or that the world would be nice with a little more warmth? Can the FCC shut them down for comitting fraud with their anti environmental rhetoric?
13 AnswersGlobal Warming1 decade agoHow long should it take a woman to get ready to leave the house?
I want to hear from women and men who have experience with women. My wife seems to be taking longer and longer to get ready to do things, including going to work, going out (for any reason), and even going to bed. In my possibly uninformed opinion, it is pathological. So I am asking to see if ALL women just take a ridiculously long time to get ready to go somewhere, including bed, or if my wife has a problem that needs to be addressed.
9 AnswersOther - Social Science1 decade agoWhy doesn't Ann Coulter get fired?
She says things that are FAR worse than anything Don Imus ever said! She called John Edwards a "fa99ot", and NOW, she said she wished his family had been killed in a terrorist attack. Where are Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson now???
10 AnswersMedia & Journalism1 decade agoHow can ANYONE think that Bush and the GOP are helping the economy?
Gas prices are at at record high, as are oil company profits, incomes are slipping, at least for the middle class http://biz.yahoo.com/weekend/dadmoney_1.html
The GOP and republicans have ONE goal, to make things easier for big business and the super rich. Why to middle class people keep falling for their lies?
15 AnswersElections1 decade agoAre the "Conservatives" likeRush Limbaugh and George Bush who lied for years about?
Global Warming responsible or at least partially responsible for the current rash of tornadoes, floods, and fires? If they had not lied, we would have begun reducing green house gas emissions 6 years ago! They should be made to pay for the damages their actions have caused.
10 AnswersCurrent Events1 decade agoWho are the 28%?
Who still think Bush is doing a good job? They have to know more Americans have died in Iraq than on 9/11, gas prices are at record highs as are oil company profits, salaries are at all time lows (except for CEO's)... There is simply no concievable way that someone in touch with reality can continue to support the Bush administration!
11 AnswersCurrent Events1 decade agoDoes anyone else applaud Obama and Clinton for snubbing FAUX News?
I do and I encourage all REAL politicians on the Right or Left to continue to do the same. At a time when Bush's friend Wolfowitz is embroiled in a scandal at the World Bank, we are losing a was Bush lied to us to start and that is bleeding the taxpayers dry, Fox News is covering Anna Nicole Smith and other non stories. It is time to take a stand against the liars at Fox.
12 AnswersElections1 decade agoDid Ann Coulter get suspended for two weeks when she called John Edwards a fa660t?
Because Imus used a phrase used by black hip hop artists and comedians to point out the fact that the Rutgers womens' basketball team had more tatoos than a Harley convention and he got canned for two weeks.
10 AnswersMedia & Journalism1 decade agoOn 9/11/2001, 3000 Americans died when when terrorists flew planes into the WTC. Americans were outraged?
And now, 3200 Americans have died in Iraq, are Americans as outraged? They should be. The Bush War has killed more Americans than the 9/11 attacks. Wake up America, it's time to impeach.
19 AnswersCurrent Events1 decade agoWhen did Tony Snow sell his soul to the devil?
He is on tv right now lying his rear off to cover up White House malfeasance.
2 AnswersMedia & Journalism1 decade agoYahoo Answers won't even allow the word "fa99ot" to be in your question,?
But when Ann Coulter called John Edwards that same word, she was cheered by a room full of Republicans. Does this make sense? John Edwards is MARRIED to a woman, I thought this is what the Republicans WANTED! I am SICK of republicans acting like 8th grade losers. Anyone else agree with me?
