Response to We paid 4.35 in Stanley, Idaho...

There is "green" legislation in congress right now that would possibly raise fed. taxes by another 50 cents per gallon under the guise of fixing man made global warming in the Warner-Lieberman bill. Never forget the politicians doing their part to make gasoline more expensive, & notice how they call the oil executives to congress for punishment while never once mentioning their role, pathetic.
