I paid $91 yesterday to fill my work van. Well, I got reimbursed but still, my job paid for it.

I'm glad bush won the election, this way there is no chance for someone else (Kerry) to come in and fix things, so Bush can come back in 2012 and re-rig an election and fux0r it all up again. 
We only gotta hold out for 3 more years, and then hopefully Gary Coleman will run.
(i know i brought this post back from 2 days ago, but i feel i deserved it since i read every single post :unsure: )

He can't come back in 2012. The most any president can "serve" is 2 terms.

if the most he can serve is 2 consecutive terms, and his 2nd term will be up in 2012, then how would he be able to run again?

Never post when you're that tired. 
traditionally, everyone has retired after two terms and I think Bush will do so as well.

aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!!! those fuckers are taking advantage of us!!!!!! i cant even afford 93 oct anymore!!!! 
First, here are the relevant passages of the Constitution:
Article II, Section 1 (5th paragraph)
No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
12th Amendment (last sentence)
But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.
22nd Amendment (first sentence)
No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.
The general consensus has always been that after you've been president twice, you're no longer eligible to be president, and therefore you're also ineligible to be the vice president. Mr. Dorf's position that Clinton could be vice president (or even president again if something were to befall Gore) relies on the literal wording of three key phrases.
* Article II says who is eligible to be president
* The 12th Amendment says anyone constitutionally ineligible to be president can not be vice president.
* The 22nd Amendment says no on can be elected president more than twice.
i wasn't aware of the 22nd ammedment being the two term only deal.
so, who knows.... bush may pull something out of his ass.....

Allow me to reiterate my original posts in plain, clear english.
Bush knows the Oil industry, and how to make America come out on top. It's in his best interest to do so - Which means that regardless of how evil you think he is - His evil will only serve to keep our oil on top of the world-wide game. It may not seem it now - But it will.
Secondly, Gas and oil crude barrel prices MUST pass the previous records. it MUST. It's a trend, and the trend MUST be adhered to. Gasoline will get to $3.20 before coming back down in time for winter. Then you will see gas prices at $2.40 and home heating at $2.06 - $2.14. It's rallying.
Please try to understand the markets before you cry about them. Once you learn how these things work, it will seem more comfortable to you.
Oil companies posted huge profits because they charge a percentage of sold refined gas at the pumps. Percentage - Just like any other business does. They aren't gouging anyone. Put your torches away.
If you drive an EVO, Audi, full size pickup or WRX then you need to sit the fuck down and not participate in ANY I hate Bush / Why aren't you conserving / wa wa the gas prices suck / I hate SUVs. Thank you for playing.
Anything I didn't cover ?
