"Bush-Cheney cronies have spiked gas prices some 80%. Fact... But even in Texas the prices are well above $2.
5 years ago they were just above $1. I know. I visit Texas often."

LOL. You visit often, so whatever you make up becomes "fact". You're a hoot, armpit.

BTW, the price of a gallon of regular in Texas was $1.40 when Bush was nominated ($1.43 when elected and $1.38 when inaugurated). It is $2.06 now, up 47% - about the same percentage gain as anywhere else in the country.
