Republican is now synonymous with Moron. This is a "bold" package? How about standing up to enviro-twits and opening up offshore and ANWR drilling, permitting new refineries and power plants, reducing boutique blends of gas, cutting fuel taxes and opening up other federal lands for exploration? Where's the supply-side of the solution? Instead these freaking idiots propose we tax ourselves to redistribute a measly $100 check to the have-nots.

Increasingly, there isn't a shred of difference between Rep and Dem.

Hey,

There are lots of ways to ease the pain of high gas.

I went into the local Citgo gas station at the four corners. I electric power was out so I needed gas for my generator. I asked the clerk for $5.00 worth of gase. She cocked her behind, lifted her leg, farted and then gave me a receipt.

I guess you need to specify what type of gas you need these days.

Here's positive proof of another $100 that the government has stolen from me and others..........

Fixed that for him. :)

I agree the proposed 'rebate' is a sick, socialist approach to this issue ... the democraps actually have the right idea and Pubbies ought to raise the 60 day offer to 180 days and make the bastards vote on it. BUT I strongly disagree that there is little difference in Pubbies and democraps .. it will be easier to change the in-power Republicans behavior than to even get democraps' attention once they get back into power and go with a vengence and even fascist zeal for the socialist societal engineered nation they believe is best for you and me. The democrat bastards are just too dangerous to ever allow them back in power.

Nonsense. Shades of George McGovern's laughable rebate plan. The GOP is so panicked, they're willing to out-bid the Democrats at their own game of getting the government to make the situation even worse. Hey, its just an election year, folks!
