Any whining from conservatives about gas prices...
Is going to get an earful from me.

I have been waiting to tell numerous people what I think of the selfishness of conservatives and this is the catalyst that will set me off.

If they whine to me about gas prices I am going to just say I don't want to hear you whining about gas prices when troops and civilians are dying in an ugly unjustified war.

I don't want to hear you complain about how it hurts to fill up that SUV's tank with the "support the troops" ribbon magnet and "W" sticker on the back when another reservist is killed in a roadside bomb in Iraq, leaving behind a bunch of kids and a wife to cope with destruction of a family.

I'll say, You republicans wanted this war. You all voted for "W" twice. Now it's time you get to do some suffering, freedom isn't free, is it?

So shut up and suck it up or get with reality and do something to end it.

Just don't whine about your taxes and filling your car cause I don't want to hear it.

So any conservative who even touches the subject of how they are suffering from gas prices...is an invitation for me to "bring it on" all over them.

1. That's what they get for supporting a bunch of oil men...
whose sole motive is making money by buying low and selling high.

3. The "ass" did not "jawbone" as he promised
in 1999/2000 . . .

Remember 2004? He met with the Saudi whatever, and came back with a promise that the Saudis would NOT LOWER PRICES! (Of course, he said, "They promised not to lower prices before the election . . .")

5. Asking a Republican to not whine about money?
Might as well ask the Sun not to set. Complaining about money is their one true skill, nobody whines about loss of cash like a Republican.

8. Yeah, but the "freedom isn't free" is a great retort-should shut up
their po-mouthing.

6. Every time when I am around known Bush voters
I say that's what we get for electing George W. fucking Bush. So far they all say I didn't vote for him don't blame me.
