| Source: NYOne At the Hess on 44th Street and Tenth Avenue in Manhattan on Sunday, the gas price stood at $3.81 per gallon for regular, which had Senator Charles Schumer speaking up. "We all know how the price of gasoline is through the roof," said New York's senior senator. "We all know how it's burning a hole in everyone's wallets and pocket books. And we all know how it's crimping our economy." He and four other senators are calling on the Bush administration to use its leverage with members of OPEC to force them to increase oil supplies. "There is one way to get the prices of oil down and it's two words -- Saudi Arabia," said Schumer.

| These rat fukers are so in cohots with one another its a joke to think this price gouging is something more. But of course we have that brainwash Fox watching segment who thinks the oil companies should be able to make what they want unless a democrat is in office. thank god that no good fuk Bush 41 didn't win a second term because we would have saw these prices back then. |

| A very good case could have been made from Day One that the Saudis were financing those who are our actual enemies. Since that is the case, shouldn't they have received the same or similar treatment that the Taliban did? |
