The Parade of the Waffle King

John Kerry is complaining that Bush has not done enough to influence OPEC to reduce the price of crude oil - and thereby the price of gasoline. Last month he was sighting a Bob Woodward account of a secret deal between Bush and the Saudi's to lower prices prior to the election and calling that outrageous and unacceptable. So essentially Kerry is saying that Bush is wrong to have not made the deal that would have been wrong to make.

Kerry is calling on Bush to use the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to lower gas prices. When Clinton did the same in response to a spike in home heating oil prices - Kerry criticized it.

When it comes to the politics of gasoline, Kerry is both regular and unleaded.

1 The more of this that goes on, the more I'm hearing about people holding their nose as they say they'll vote for Kerry. If there wasn't such a deep hatred for President Bush among some groups, Kerry would rank right up there with Carter and Custer in slaughters.

2 It's only May. The economy is improving. WMD are starting to be found in Iraq. The Abu Ghraib abusers are facing justice.

There's still hope.
