Bush Passes Gas (Bill)

Isn't it incredibly ironic (and hypocritical) that on the same day that a barrel of oil hits an all-time high, that Bush would sign his beloved energy bill. A putrid piece of legislation that even its supporters (read: bag men for Big Oil) acknowledge will do nothing to lower the price of gas for consumers, Bush had the unmitigated gall to sign this give away of the Federal Treasury to oil companies at a solar energy test facility in Albuquerque. This is the equivalent of going to Florida to sign a bill that guarantees that all votes be counted fairly. Lest anyone think that the cost of gas is going to moderate anytime soon, listen to what Bush was given to read by Cheney and his Big Oil buddies, "Most of the serious problems such as high gasoline costs or the rising dependence on foriegn oil, have developed over decades. It's going to take YEARS of focused effort to alleviate thise problems." Don't say he didn't warn you.
