2. Trump makes Bush look smart, statesmanlike and diplomatic
When they are both just spoiled poor little rich kids.

17. To be fair, Bush had 7 & 1/2 yrs on the job training and burned thru 5000 US troops to get there
And after all the carnage and all the lies and all the Bill of Rights shredding and all the economy tanking... the best he could achieve was to become marginally smarter than Donald Trump.

4. How We Became Slaves to Oil
The last 90 years of the economic, political, and ecological rape of the world by oil companies has been a total con job, enforced with violence and supported by generations of corrupt politicians (Cheney, Bush Sr., Bush Jr., Nixon, and on and on it goes.)

7. well maybe he is right on this issue
Edited on Fri Apr-29-11 09:40 AM by BigD_95
He is also, as sad as I hate to say it, right when he says we should be adding 25% to any imports. Obama doesnt even have the balls to say that.


I better add that, I do think Trump is a racist piece of shit. And I do not support him in anyway.

8. Come on
Edited on Fri Apr-29-11 10:00 AM by Thornleylv
Do you really think that would do any good at all? Just saying "stop" is going to do it. Well maybe if we hold our breath until we turn blue. Or maybe if we stamp our feet real hard and scream "mommy". Join the real world. Trump is a bigot.

Who do you think will pay for the 25% import fee? We will, it's a tax so he wants us to pay more for gas. Remember all the gas produced any where goes in the same supply. The company does not pay for the import tax we do.

18. Can you imagine how the rest of the industrialized world would react to a 25% tariff?
The way to improve the economy is to speed up the flow of money. Big sudden jumps in tariffs are historically causes of economic stagnation. It was the Smoot Hawley Tariff of 1930 that turned the Panic of 1929 into the Great Depression.

10. all this proves
is that Obama is not in bed with the Saudis like the Bush family. Thanks for pointing that out, Donald. Oh, by the way, perhaps "the Donald" needs to educate himself on how being a blowhard works in real life. He can look in a history book under "Arab Oil embargo of 1974" or "OPEC".

But I'm sure the Saudis will listen to him when he says "you must do this." If n ot, what's he gonna do, fire them? :wtf:

11. If Trump really knew anything about finance and international trade and commerce
Edited on Fri Apr-29-11 10:52 AM by 4lbs
he would know that the price of oil isn't set by Saudia Arabia or any country in the Middle East.

It is set by world events and the commodity traders and speculators on....


WALL STREET.


But hey, you know, he can't go after his rich white friends that live on Park Avenue or maybe even one of his Trump Hotels, he has to go after some dark skinned people in a far off country.

13. Saudi Arabia would simply cut us off if Trump was POTUS!
They could make up the difference selling to our enemies who would love to see America squirm without Saudi Oil!

Trump would make the Cheney/Bush Administration look smart & peaceful! Not good!

14. I get the distinct feeling that Trump's rooting for gas to go to $8 so he can *really*
save us from the prices.

15. Fuck yeah!
I think all of us should donate to Donald's campaign. He provides endless entertainment value, and he makes the GOP look even more ridiculous.
