"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.

You have been challenged to back your claims. With links and documentation. Those refuting you have done so. We are quite tired of your anecdotal claims; there is no proof that you are not simply lying as you see necessary.

This is a warning: The next time you are challenged to back a fact that can be documented and do not do so, you will be banned. I and numerous others are thoroughly tired of your antics. Put up or shut up.
