It is absurd to think that one man (the president) controls all oil and gasoline prices.
However, when gas was expensive, I know many people who were quick to blame George Bush for the high prices.
Well, now that that the prices have been lowered, I don't hear any thanks.
Again, it is absurd to think that one man controls it all, but I would like to hear a "thank you" from those who gave a quick "it's your fault."

I am writing a letter of concern regarding drug traffic and how it is becoming part of our life.
Drug traffic and its tragedies are becoming part of a normal day in our port. Issues about these events are everywhere -- on TV, newspaper, radio, even in our music.
What I am concerned about is that all the events that are happening in our community are nothing new to our people and we will start not to care about it. We are getting used to feeling insecure.
We can see how this battle issue has been a constant challenge for the government.
We need help.

Dear Frank and Ruth:
The price of oil went down because Dick Cheney's oil glands have been producing oil at historical levels.
Give Dick a hand for lower oil prices.
Drugs would not do so much "trafficking" or do such lethal harm if they were simply made available to those who choose to use them.
No, the masses wouldn't become drug addicts, because they already are.
Just read one issue of Reader's Digest to get a small glimpse of the variety of legal drugs to choose from.
Pharmaceutical companies are adamantly against drug legalization, and so are the Narco-drug lords.
Business is business.
Taxing the newly legalized drugs would help help pay off that $60 trillion debt!
It’s a tired, worn, and fallacious argument that hordes of haughty citizens would en masse start drugging themselves and put into peril the remainder of the haughty.
As you may or may not know, marijuana is America's number one cash crop.
Much of America is already in an alcoholic haze, so I suppose that a little more "stimulation" or numbing will not matter too much.
O.K.
Off to the drug store...
Have to stock up.
Below are some quotes to put into your pipe to smoke:
January 24, 1996
From Correspondent Anthony Collings and wire reports
WASHINGTON (CNN)-- The move to legalize drugs in the United States has an unlikely ally.
William F. Buckley, editor of the conservative magazine National Review, believes with illegal drugs so readily available, the war against them has been lost. Buckley would legalize marijuana immediately, then study how far to go legalizing other drugs.
Supporters claim drug legalization will ease burdens on prisons and shift billions of dollars from law enforcement to treatment and anti-drug education. Baltimore Mayor Kurt Schmoke would go a step further: putting government in charge of distributing drugs to addicts.
"I'm interested in bringing peace on the street ...(but)... the war on drugs is simply bringing more killing rather than less killing. I'd like to take the profit out of distributing drugs at the street level."
"The legalization of drugs would simultaneously reduce the number of crimes and improve respect for the law. It is hard to imagine any other single provision which could make a more significant contribution to the promotion of law and order."
MILTON FRIEDMAN
Nobel Prize for Economics
"... we will never obtain any result as long as we are unable to separate crime from the drug business and the incitement to criminality this causes..."
GEORGE SCHULTZ
Former U.S. Secretary of State
IT'S THE OIL AND DRUGS STUPID!
