Tobacco kills about 15 times as many people than alcohol does, even considering the ones killed by drunk drivers.. and there may be almost as many auto accidents attributed to smoking as drinking.

Why didn't he block this????

Oil hence gas prices being high are from speculators. It is responsible for anywhere between 20-50% of the present hike in oil prices with the moist agreed amount being 30 percent of oil price increases.

Up until 8 years ago (before the Bush Administration took office) when you purchased oil futures you had to take physical possession of the purchase within 30 days. That meant if you purchased 500,000 barrels of oil you had to take it and store it.

Today thanks to former senator Phil Graham – the guy that just resigned from the John McCain committee for president – he pushed through the Senate and the president signed it a bill that allowed the oil futures to be traded on paper with NO physical possession needed.

No other futures received this type of leeway!

Phil Graham was head of the Banking Committee, Finance Committee and the committee that oversaw the futures market

Remember he is the one that recently called people who complained about high gas costs “Whiners” and “It was all in their head about a recession and loss of jobs” This is a first class piece of SHIZ if there ever was one.

Since then up until today you have companies who have NO manufacturing plant, nor airplanes, no merchant or cruise ships or any other type of machinery that uses oil purchasing shares only to resell them to one another on paper driving up the price that eventually legitimate manufacturing or transportation industries have to purchase.

Naturally the price is passed on to the consumer in the form of higher prices.

Some of these trades involve millions of barrels of oil and have been purchased by Wall Street banking firms, investment firms and even large legal firms.

You the customer are paying right now about 80 cents to a dollar per gallon more on the price of gasoline due to this.

Bush said just recently (regarding the real estate problem we are now in) on camera that “Wall street had a drinking problem and now is suffering from a hangover”. Is the leader of the Free World?????? He had a smirk on his face!

Bush likes his booze, that's why

John McCain and Bush need those cigarettes to kill Iranians that's why they don't want them regulated.
