Pretty sad that as another Category 4 Hurricane bears down on the gulf coast threatening lives, hospitals, homes, schools, etc., all we worry about is how it will affect the cost of putting fuel in our goddamned cars.

And the liberals accuse the right of being egocentric.... :roll:

Eat it Esthete. Might not be a big deal to you but when you farm and you go through between 3 and 4 hundred litres of fuel a day it is something to bitch about. Feel free to hop back up on your pedestal and judge me now.

everything is bush's fault

NOW, you're learning..

Man, the GOPs are tooouuuccchhyyy lately...

Hey, that's a fun game, Esthete! I bet I can play, too:

"Pretty sad that as people starve around the world, all people can worry about is a hurricane hitting one of the world's richest, best-prepared nations."

But I bet someone can top that. Think of all those alien species being wiped out by supernovae right now!

God, that's a horrible analogy.

Starvation and a C-4 'canes are both life-threatening. A rise in fuel costs is merely an budgetary constraint for most of us.

Hey buddy, rising fuel costs affect EVERYONE in all walks of life. The impact it has on farmers and truckers and everything else gets passed on to all consumers everywhere.

Can't we concentrate or thoughts on those in physical harm's way before we bitch about fuel costs?

Well said Esthete. skippy's usually a little more tightly focused and on target in his satire (whether you agree with it or not is another matter), but he's wide of the mark here. Well, we can't be perfect all the time...

*yawn* how tired, and boring. If we're going to turn this to a "dump on Bush" thread, can people at least be original or funny about it?

Hey buddy, tell me where exactly a farmer gets to pass the high price of fuel on to consumers. Last time I checked we don't set the price for our product. Set me straight superfarmer.
