Bush is so concerned about this that he wants to drill in Alaska to give us a temporary Band-Aid solution to a permanent problem. But it will make his oil buddies rich.

And to think that before the invasion of Iraq, the attitude was "I'm all for it! Cheap gas!" Suckers. The Bush administration is the carny and you are the mark.

I guess you forgot to read the fine print of the pic you posted - tax-write off enacted by CONGRESS in March 2002

And you can place the blame regarding energy crisis squarely on the shoulders of the dems/libs/envirowackos. We can't even tap into the abundant supply of oil we have on our own soil. Can't drill in the winter wasteland of ANWAR, can't drill in the Gulf, Colorado, etc, etc, etc. Can't build new refinieries ( cause the permit/regulations that the dems/libs have put in place are severe). Can't go nuclear (even though it is "clean" energy). Coal is bad, bad, bad. Even clean coal.

Yet they cry and whine about the price of gas.

Of course, elitists like Edwards and Gore, somehow are exempt as they tool around their 20000sf mansions and private jets.

What? Your now blaming Bush because people are homless?

You need to learn the facts. First, majority of people who are homeless is due to domestic violence and mental illnesses. While on any given day 200,000 veterans are homeless this problem existed well before Bush became president.

p.s. I was one point homeless (about 12 years ago) so dont sit there and pretend like you have a darn clue about what its like to be homeless. Blaming Bush for the homeless problem would be like me blaming Clinton when I was homeless.. It would be hogwash!!

But we'll have more homeless veterans now thanks to W. The hawks will send the boys to war but not take care of them afterward. Look at Vietnam. This isn't going to be any different.

Is this based upon factual data, or yet another posting based upon "feelings"?

Last I checked the government had an obligation to take care of those in the military, please tell me when voluntarily signing up for the military meant a life long committment of the government to take care of you...

Actually you can thank a house fire for making me homeless, and I can thank my fiance for taking me into her home and helping me work 60 hour work weeks to get my businesses operating.

The government is not my babysitter, they have absolutely nothing to do with my success or failures.
