If we wouldnt have gone into iraq in the first place, the gas prices wouldnt be like this most likely. P.S-Don't you think that Bush is probably making money of all of this? I'm not saying that he is all that has to do with the gas prices because obvioulsy the oil companys want to make their 10 billion instead of 1 billion.

You're right, gas prices wouldn't be like this, they'd be higher. Countries like France want nothing to do with this war, and they're paying about 6 bucks a gallon for gas. Imagine what would have happened if we never went to war with Iraq. Saddam would still be in power and he would have cut off the US and every other major country from the oil in Iraq. Which yes, is part of the reason why we went to war. Oil wouldn't cost $60 per barrel like it does now, it'd cost $160 per barrel. And we wouldn't be paying 3 bucks per gallon, we'd be paying 13 bucks per gallon. And I would like to know how Bush is making money off of this

It seems like so many people love to hate bush, almost like it's the cool thing to do, and that gets on my nerves. During the election, I always said; "I don't care who you vote for, just as long as you vote for someone based on knowledge and factual information." I personally knew several people who were voting for either Kerry or Bush simply because either A.) That's who their parents were voting for, B.) That's who their friends were voting for, or C.) Because of what the celebrities were saying. I voted for Bush. And I would rather have had someone vote for Kerry based on intelligence and understanding, than have them vote for Bush because that's who their
