You can't be a serious journalist if you fail to ask any republicans complaining about gas prices

[onecaliberal]

and inflation why they voted against legislation to hold oil companies accountable for price gouging and voted no on inflation reduction.

[gratuitous]

1. Totally agree

Also, any mention of gas prices that doesn't refer to the more than $50 billion in profits reported by big oil in the second quarter. Anyone think those profits were sucked directly out of the pockets of the driving public?

[Mr.Bill]

2. And ask them what they recommend to bring gas prices down.

Trust me, they've got nothing.

3. There is a picture on DU of a Hearing on Inflation, not one puke attended.

[Mr.Bill]

4. I saw that. n/t

[BigmanPigman]

5. They NEVER have anything.

They have NO agenda and can't legislate their way out of a brown paper bag but the stellar and unbiased news media and their incredible zeal for truth and facts about anything, other than any lame assed sporting events, interests the average lazy American. Americans choose to remain purposely ignorant and hide their heads in the sand until some issue that finally, specifically concerns them arises. That is when they start to wake up but that doesn't mean that the news they are getting is even factual. I have seen this over and over for at least 40 years...

6. It's so exhausting.

[Mr.Bill]

7. Agree.

Good rant.

10. +1,

[Captain Zero]

12. They HAD NO PARTY PLATFORM IN 2020

Other than to lie about election results.

[BigmanPigman]

13. Their only platform is "own the libs"

My, my, what a clever agenda for 20+ years. Poitical savants, they are not.

11. Tax cuts for the rich, and elimination of regulations. No, I'm completely

serious on this - one of my area Republican state senate candidates is actually saying these things are the key weapons to use in order to curb inflation!

[OAITW r.2.0]

8. And they have no interest in changing the cost equation by supporting EV transportation.

More buggy whips are needed!

9. How did that loaf of bread and box of cereal get to the store? Any oil profits in that produce?

Gee, "journalist", do you ask Republicans if they've done anything about price-gouging at the pump that affects damn near everything people buy?
