Yes, The Battle Between John Kerry and John Kerry Continues -- This Time Over Gas Prices Gas prices are too high, says Kerry. And it is the result of the "failed policies" of GW Bush the oilman, he says. Yet is this not the guy environmentalists are going to vote for? Do not Euro-wannabes lament that gas taxes are not high enough and we should have even more taxes on gas? To cut consumption and give us more money to spend on crucifixes dipped in urine? But when prices are high because of mid-east dictatorships rather than taxes, suddenly they want to take action??? Against mid-east dictators? I don't get it. No one gets it. Iraq was "all about oil" the radical lefties claim. Yet their guy is wanting to make American foreign policy all about oil. Foreign policy hawk and macho unilateralist Kerry says he would pressure oil-producing nations to increase production and temporarily suspend filling the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve, campaign aides said. And he chose to make that statement in San Diego. Does he have a clue why CA gas prices are so high? I'll tell him. Because taxes on gas in CA are the highest in the country is the first reason. The second reason is that the population in CA has gone up by millions in the last few decades but environmentalists have protested any plans to build or expand any refineries in CA. It is virtually impossible to do. So even though CA has the Alaska pipeline coming right into the state and should have no dependence at all on OPEC, CA still has to import gas from other states. Now let's compare macho unilateralist foreign policy hawk Presidential candidate Kerry with Senator Kerry. Senator Kerry consistently has advocated higher taxes on gasoline in order to increase government coffers and cut gas consumption. I'm sure Senator Kerry would be thrilled if poor people were forced to take jobs that were only on bus routes while he gets chauffered in a gas-guzzling limousine. But macho unilateralist foreign policy hawk Kerry is looking out for the little guy. The poor people. Who are burdened by high taxes. "A Kerry administration would act immediately to exert pressure on OPEC to abandon its cut in output quotas and instead increase oil supplies," his aides said. Now this is consistent. Senator Kerry, after all, supported and voted for pressuring a mid-east country unilaterally. But Presidential Candidate Kerry said that involvement in Iraq was a bad idea. I think the Democrats actually have a shot at winning this election if they can keep the two Democrat candidates focused on Bush and not attacking each other. Article Here
