Gasoline Nears $3 in U.S., Hurting Bush, GM, Helping Refiners
Post Date: 2006-04-10 11:06:43 by Brian S
5 Comments
April 10 (Bloomberg) -- Gasoline is climbing toward the U.S. record of $3.07 a gallon, and the damage is piling up for President George W. Bush and General Motors Corp. Higher fuel prices may deepen losses for makers of gas- guzzling sport utility vehicles and trim sales for Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the world's largest retailer. Oil refiners such as Tesoro Corp. and Japanese makers of higher-mileage hybrid cars are likely to benefit. Hurricane Katrina in August pushed the U.S. average gasoline price above $3 for the first time. Since then, the percentage of Americans who don't like Bush's energy policies has jumped to 58 percent, according to a Newsweek poll last month. Now prices at the ...

AFP Editorial: Immigration Consternation For the past several weeks, the mainstream media has made much ado about pro-immigration rallies that have been popping up around the country. But despite the fact that a clear majority of Americans believe that our porous borders and illegal immigration are serious problems, which should be addressed, lawmakers have been doing their best to avoid doing what’s best for the country. A number of prominent legislators have been insisting that new measures dealing with our borders include amnesty for those who are here illegally. They have also argued against punishing companies that skirt U.S. law by offering jobs to illegal aliens. Meanwhile, ...

A Warning for Americans: A Message from a South African [Full Thread]

People used to say that South Africa was 20 years behind the rest of the Western world. Television, for example, came late to South Africa (but so did pornography and the gay* rights movement). Today, however, South Africa may be the grim model of the future Western world, for events in America reveals trends chillingly similar to those that destroyed our country. America's structures are Western. Your Congress, your lobbying groups, your free speech, and the way ordinary Americans either get involved or ignore politics are peculiarly Western, not the way most of the world operates. But the fact that only about a third of Americans deem it important to vote is horrifying in light of how ...

Dual citizenship explodes in U.S. SPECIAL REPORT THE WASHINGTON TIMES By August Gribbin November 15, 1999 Martin Ford is a third generation Irish-American. But he wants to be a first generation Irishman -- a dual citizen. Patricia Campos, a first generation Salvadoran-American, has dual citizenship. And she's quite content with that. Trouble is, a lot of others aren't. And therein lies an ongoing dispute. Like thousands in the 40 million-strong Irish-American community, Mr. Ford is asking Ireland to make him a naturalized citizen so he'll simultaneously be Irish and American. Yet the trend Mr. Ford is following and the dual citizenship of Americans like Miss Compos trouble many of ...

Ok, here on FoxNews we have, oh abut 1000K people gathering in white t-shirts in Dallas. If you aren’t paying attention to this, you should be. I am going to propose a heretical idea. We have 11 MILLION or so of these people who are HERE, and they are NOT going to be leaving soon. If even a third of those 11 million get even slightly militant, we have one VERY serious problem. VERY, VERY serious. Here is the idea: Against the strident advise of the all the lawmakers in Washington, we just give them all amnesty. Then the GOP leads the drive to register and assimilate these under grounders, get them English language, insurance, paying taxes, and all the legitimate trappings of being a ...

Matt Drudge is live on the radio right now. He is playing tapes from the Dallas illegal alien demonstration. His tape has the local reporter describing the demonstrators as throwing things past the police line. Still the mainstream press says the illegal aliens are demonstrating peacefully. Go to Drudge's website above to find a list of radio stations playing his show. He is talking now about the April 10th demonstrations but I know him and he will replay the tape again and again. Not that it matters, but Matt Drudge is gay and Jewish. I just added that to show that the memers of this forum are not homophobic and anti-semitic.

DALLAS -- Tens of thousands banged drums, waved U.S. flags and shouted "Si Se Puede!" -- Spanish for "Yes, we can!" -- in a protest urging federal lawmakers to pass immigration reform that would legalize an estimated 11 million undocumented workers. Rallies in the capitals of Minnesota and Iowa also drew thousands of protesters. Dozens of demonstrations nationwide were set for Monday, a signal that what began as a string of disparate events -- attracting tens and even hundreds of thousands of people -- has become more coordinated. "We don't have a leader like Martin Luther King or Cesar Chavez, but this is now a national immigrant rights movement," said ...

HOW DO YOU DEPORT MILLIONS OF ILLEGALS? NewsWithViews.com By Devvy Kidd April 6, 2006 The continued sell out in Washington, DC over the illegal alien invasion continues. One of the biggest reasons illegals smuggle themselves across the border is financial incentives. Illegals are more than happy to risk being caught for free medical care, free education for their children who are also here illegally and for jobs. They have no fear of deportation because we have gutless cowards serving in Congress along with the four border governors. In this "new" bill sitting in the senate is a provision for in-state tuition for illegals! I wish this were an April Fool's joke, but it's no joke ...

Are these jobs that Americans will not do? The distinguished Senators Kennedy, McCain, Specter, Brownback, DeWine, Martinez , Hagel and Graham appear to believe that Americans are lazy and unmotivated to do a days work. If this is so, then who did these jobs before unethical employers opted to break the law by hiring a massive number of illegal aliens on the cheap? ...

Jews oppose immigration bills

A consortium of Jewish groups is taking action against two controversial immigration bills. The New York-based Jews for Racial and Economic Justice is gathering signatures for an ad opposing two immigration bills, one passed by the U.S. House of Representatives and one under debate in the Senate. The House bill calls for fining, detaining and deporting illegal immigrants, and for penalizing those who help them. The ad, which will be placed in newspapers across the country next week, calls upon Jews to remember, as they tell the Passover story, the millions of Jewish immigrants who came to America over the past two centuries. The ad reads, in part, “as Jews, we know that immigrants ...

Hispanic Groups Vow Protests In 60 US Cities GG2.NET NEWS [08/04/2006] US HISPANIC groups demanded an amnesty for illegal immigrants and planned a nation-wide day of protests, as a much-touted compromise immigration bill stalled in the Senate. The groups, which are organizing a wave of protests in 60 US cities on Monday in a bid to halt plans to expel illegal immigrants, reacted after the compromise law that would have allowed millions of undocumented workers to normalize their status in the United States failed to pass in the Senate. But Latino leaders said that even the compromise bill that deadlocked in the Senate was inadequate. "We do not want half measures, we demand an ...

NEWARK, N.J. -- The men both stood in a busy hardware store parking lot, but their lives were far apart. On one end, Oscar Bautista of El Salvador said he had been waiting more than three hours for a job. Across the lot, Art Jackson loaded potting soil into his Dodge Durango. He complained that immigrants are making it harder for Americans to keep good jobs, especially blacks. ''You need to take care of home first,'' said Jackson, an African-American phone salesman from northern New Jersey. Blacks and Latinos are often united on social and political issues. But they often differ when it comes to immigration. Newcomers make black progress harder, said Wesley Crawford, who works at Source ...

Bush Threatens Veto of Spending Bills AP & Washington Post ^ | 4/7/6 | Andrew Taylor Posted on 04/07/2006 7:51:24 PM PDT by Crackingham President Bush said Friday he would use his power to veto spending bills if Congress does not cut the federal budget as he has asked. In over five years in office, Bush has never vetoed any bill. But he said that restraining spending was crucial to cutting the deficit in half by 2009 as he has promised. "If necessary, I will enforce spending restraint through the exercise of the veto," the president said. Bush's brief statement from the White House's Diplomatic Reception Room came a day after feuds among rival Republican factions led ...
