Sheesh! A hundred days of "vacation" (were you institutionalized?) and you're spouting more nonsense now than before the election. And as math-challenged as ever. "Bush has almost doubled gas prices." Never mind that markets, not presidents, control gas prices, but you aren't even close. When Bush took office, a gallon of regular gas cost $1.47 in the US. Now it is $2.15. That's a 46% gain, dummy. If your IQ rose 46%, would you brag that it "almost doubled"? You could brag that it was approaching triple digits, perhaps, but not "almost doubled."
