JEEEEEZ...now I remember why I quit talking to you. No, the primise of the war was not to control gas prices. If you think differently, prove it. There was no "predatory move" (psst: sounds like you need to revisit your shrink, as you still don't have that personal problem worked out) go back...look at the UN resolutions, the misery that saddam was putting his own people through, the congress signing off on and funding the war. you did? you predicted higher gas prices??? Oh my my...imagine that!! are you Carnac?

Gas war House Democrats and Republicans continue to squabble over the nation's skyrocketing gasoline prices. Minority Leader John A. Boehner, Ohio Republican, introduced legislation yesterday to force the House Democratic leader, Nancy Pelosi, to reveal details of a 2006 campaign pledge to lower gas prices. "Two years ago this week, Speaker Pelosi promised the American people that the Democrats had a 'common-sense plan' to lower rising gas prices," Mr. Boehner said. The minority leader noted that average gas prices have increase about $1.20 per gallon since the California Democrat became speaker in January 2007. "This 'Pelosi Premium' is putting the squeeze on American families and small businesses who want meaningful action from Congress, not empty campaign promises or hollow legislation that has no real impact on the price of gasoline," he said.
