Bush says consumers won't be gouged on gas after Ike

Gee that's a nice thought...too bad it isn't true! Just turn on CNN or other news stations today and check out the prices that are going through the roof! In Texas right now people are paying over $5 a gallon! In some stations across the Gulf Coast gas prices are being raised hourly!

Yet, we see this article in the mainstream media that makes it sound like everything is "Jim Dandy!" Bush is looking out for our welfare the article implies...I wonder if he's watching television today?

TODAY'S THREAD:

If this supposed news article isn't an example of corporate media telling lies, then I don't know what is. What are your feelings about this subject?

As for corporate media, I think they should pay our gas bills. Yeah, that's right.
