  1. Let me guess- Their excuse for raising prices this time was that the sky is blue? Or that someone burped? What a joke. talk about greed.

  2. Saw REGULAR gas at $3.399 in San Francisco today.

    The traffic is still heavy around here, so the high gas prices haven’t yet taken the moron-owned Ess Yoo Vees off the road. Too bad!

  3. Wow…Thats about $0.60 per gallon more than here. Then I see those beautiful palm trees and blue sky and think the extra cost is worth it.

  4. Around SW Ohio area, prices have been 2.59, to as “low” as 2.41 per gallon, depends on what county I was in, this past Sunday!
    I think we were paying 1.77 or so just 2 months ago!
    Can anyone say 3 per gallon in Midwest by Memorial Day weekend, and probably 3.50-3.75(or more) for regular ,out in Vince’s area?

    Next car may just have to be a hybrid!

  5. Well someone has to pay for the Haliburton move to Dubai. You think they are going to pay for the moving expenses and CEO bonuses.

  6. Election over, Dollar worth little more than toilet paper, completely unsustainable National debt from those fiscally responsible Republicans. Wars failing on two fronts and a third on a promise, predatory oil companies who dictate terms to a laughably corrupt Government, yeah I can see a few possible reason why the numbers at the pump don’t look too good for you. But… he was the candidate who you would all most like to have a beer with at the barbie. enjoy.

  7. In Canada, the reason why the price jumped is 1. a fire started at a refinery, 2. a strike started for the train workers, preventing gaz to be transported by train. Those events made a shortage in oil (closing several gaz stations), therefore, the price jumped sky high(from 0.80cent/Litre to 1.1cent/Liter). Now that both problem are resolve, they failed to bring back the price down. This could have affect you guys also, since Canada sells a good proportion of their oil to the US.

  8. $2.70 up from $2.45 in the metro Cleveland area. At least we are not paying $7.00 to $8.00 a gallon which is what I paid per gallon or liter in Holland last fall. $97.00 to fill a small car.

  9. A couple of ARCOs I’ve seeen in SoCal are “only” 2.98 (as of this morning). I’m glad my Vibe gets 30+ mpg with all the freeway miles I drive!

  10. If you Californians would stop trying to vote yourselves something for nothing… When you do that you will always get nothing for something. It aint the oil companies despite what the maggots in Sacramento try to get you to think. Where people aren’t trying to vote themselves something for nothing, the gas is much cheaper.

  11. Sad aspect of pure greed based on excuses.

    Remember, California does not receive any OPEC Oil at all. Most oil is pump in house, Alaska, Mexico [two-years they are gone], and one Pacific Island.

    The excuse is that the few refineries are offline for maintenance. Every middle-man is trying to exercise capitolism at it greedest point.

    One more reason why Cali should have a open border.

  12. The oil companies truck drivers dont like California because the weather sucks and the girls are ugly, causing a gas shortage.

  13. Election over, Dollar worth little more than toilet paper, completely unsustainable National debt from those fiscally responsible Republicans. Wars failing on two fronts and a third on a promise, predatory oil companies who dictate terms to a laughably corrupt Government, yeah I can see a few possible reason why the numbers at the pump don’t look too good for you. But… he was the candidate who you would all most like to have a beer with at the barbie. enjoy.

    Good post.

    Read this

    My sentiments exactly.

  14. The government is robbing you blind and you all blame it on evil oil companies…Thats funny.

    quit yer whinnin and go out and start a friggin oil company and you to can become stinkin rich…Or would that be too much time away from your surfing time.

  15. Gee could it be that asshole prez we have in office taking care of his buddies in texas and making them extremly rich ? could it be the worst vice prez we have ever had in office ?? (haliburton) could it be the oil companys extreme greed ? could it be the local distributors knowing they can make a ton of money off us fools as long as george w asshole is in office, and he wont stop the oil greed ? or is at all the above ?

    No, but gas prices are rising, gas prices are rising.

    The US invaded Iraq in the 90’s to “kick Saddam out of Kuwait.” Um, sure. Okay, so we spent billions of American tax dollars and countless lives to do so, yet we still don’t control world oil prices? What’s up with that? Why isn’t Kuwait giving us oil for our role in “liberating” them?

    Now we’ve invaded the second largest oil field in the world, but we are beholden to market prices dictated by Saudi Arabia?

    Something’s rotten in Denmark.

  17. I suspect that if no-one voted in 08, the Republicans still would win unexpectedly in marginal seats that they were trailing in until halfway through the count.

  18. Hillary Clinton for prez 2008 ! she will shake things up, hell she ran the white house for 8 years already !

  19. gas is also expensive in beautiful modesto where i live
    but it is still cheapert than iin socialist europe and other 3rd world countries

    i don’t mind paying for what we get

    for the dimwits who think clinton could be president and make things better i have a picture of the real next president on my site
    and he looks better\

  20. I heard the reason the gas prices are so High are because a Raccoon was loose in a Refinery. Invade the Raccoons habitat . We’ll teach them. Bring it On! You Masked Bandits.

  21. Gore. Also, he had stocks in oil at one time. Look it up, do a net search.See Occidental Petroleum…http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2007/03/al_gores_legacy_of_hypocrisy.html500,000 dollars-1 million(?) worth of oil sotcks, (this was on tv,think in 2000 or 2001? I think Dateline. Think he sold them, probably when gas was 3.25-3.75 a gallon last Summer,lol)BOTH SIDES have crooks, so deal with it.Wonder what would happen if No One voted in 08? lol.
