Not sure why but Missery has always had the lowest gas prices. We (Wyoming) have always been a little higher than Missery but we are still at $3.79. And that really sucks. Jim

Paid 3.60 at Gulf the other day effectively 3.42 when you count the 5% Discover is giving me this month on gas

*L* Helen, luck can be a very fleeting thing, while stupid is forever. Lets just see how it holds up with a little time. Obama should be sending Putin a thank you card for covering his arse. Unfortunately, I fear Putin will be covering his arse in another way real soon. Now watch the clock. Obama will try to stall the big flop this agreement is gonna be till after the midterm elections, just as he is trying to do with Obamacare. Hey, weren't you one of the folks that bemoaned the fact that we invaded Iraq and Saddam had no WMD's? And now you admit he had them and moved them to Syria?...Mel $3.50 here in Texas too....Mel That's right. The WMD may be new evidence, but we have to actually SEE it to know if it's Saddam's. Now there's a chance we can prove it is, thanks to Obama's 'luck'. IF IT IS, it would go a long way towards vindicating Bush. And IF IT IS, Bush should be kissing Obama's feet, it will rewrite George Bush's history. Good thing Obama's so lucky, and stood his ground on Syria, backing Putin into agreeing to find and destroy to avoid missile strikes. That's statesmanship. Funny how that works, Obama's 'luck' led to the death of Bin Laden, something else Bush couldn't finish. And speaking of luck, I still find it interesting how the Seals were responsible for Bin Laden, not the Commander in Chief who risked his Presidency to give them the "Go", while Carter's the worst President in US history, because HIS Rangers died in a copter crash in a sandstorm, trying to rescue the 52 hostages in Iran. How does that work, can you tell me? But Mel, I do agree that stupid is forever:).

That is absolutely NOT why Carter is the worst president in history.

Yeah, I'd say failed foreign policy, failed economic policy, and inflation and interest rates booth topping 18% had a little to do with Carter being the worse Prez ever. Don't worry though, the big "O" is giving him a run for his money and he's got three years left.....Mel

$3.39 here in KS. Been that price for weeks except for one little pre-syria flinch for a day or 2. Haven't really looked into it, heard Saudi Arabia was flooding the market so the postponed(or whatever) conflict wouldn't be so hard felt. LOL i'm pretty sure everyone in the US will melt on anything over $5gallon that's how thin budgets are stretched. There's a lot of obstacles for these little war endeavors.

I am new around here and love to go rockhounding with my wife of 11 years and our two boys. I have been wondering around the forum reading here and there. I am sorry and with respect to Helen. Dont you dare degrade the Navy Seals that risked their lives to capture a chicken hearted murderer that hides. Nor the Rangers who died trying to help the hostages. When a chicken goes into hiding it could have take another decade to have found the coward. Obomo (no typo) just happened to be in office. It was years of info that led those brave Seals to that compound. Obomo didnt risk anything. As for Carter, that was just a blunder. As the boss he takes the heat for the mistakes. I just have to say that i love my work, and wouldnt change my career for anything. My family supports me 100% no matter where it takes me. With that said I hate my incompetant, arrogant boss Obomo. I just hope that in 2016 America wakes up. THANKS ARMY SGT. In Iowa gas is at $3.43 for ethanol.

I've kept quiet on this one so far. But I just have one question for Helen.
What choice did Ocommie have but to give the green light on taking out Bin Laden ? I still maintain that Obama was kept in the dark on the whole thing, until the real intelligent folks had too much info for him to say no. Saying no would have been political suicide for him.

Welcome aboard stitts. I'm a retired Navy guy, and have taken heat on here from several liberals for it. Don't give a damn. I'm proud of my service, and the service of all of my brothers at arms.

What CHOICE? You saw Clinton on National TV saying that he may not have made the call to go... it was a HUGE risk, given what happened to Carter... if those Seals died, it would have been Obama's legacy destroyer.
I'm surprised at you, Don, as a Military man. If you feel like running off to kill someone, can you do that without your commanding officer's order? Can you commander order you to do that without his commanding officer's order? Who needs to give the order for a mission that may involve all the deaths of multiple best and brightest in the US military?
If someone else gave that order, WITHOUT consulting the Commander in Chief, why do we not know this person's name Don? Do YOU know that person's name?
And... before the raid began, we have photos of the White House situation room. BEFORE Bin Laden died, they were already watching through the helmet cams. So who gave that order to Go on that mission Don? WHO? You know the answer... tell us.

Further, I think the Navy Seals who got Bin Laden are all heros, and worthy of the greatest respect and admiration. That doesn't change the fact that they don't run off to kill whoever they please without orders. They get orders to kill people. Who gave that order? Obama is the Commander in Chief of the US Military. Are you degrading your Commander in Chief?

I take it that you are not an active member of the military today... because: While it depends on whether you are caught or not, disrespecting your commanding officer is a possible court martial, even today. There IS no free speech for members of the US Armed forces. First Amendment operates under a 'different application' for members of the military. I do not know how that applies to ex military or their benefits, but active military may NOT criticize their Commander in Chief. Just last year, a Marine Corps Sgt got a Dishonorable discharge for posting an insult to Obama on Facebook. No more military benefits: communities.washingtontimes.com/neighborhood/middle-class-guy/2012/apr/9/marine-sgt-gary-stein-fights-losing-battle-over-fr/

Helen, can the crap. Plenty of our military have gone on kill missions without the CIC ever knowing. He knew Bin Ladens location only when our intelligence people had enough info to take him out with or without Ocommies permission. Once Ocommie had that info, he would have looked like an even bigger fool than he is, if he had said no.
" Helen" "My husband was a marine. I don't degrade a SINGLE MEMBER of the Military, nor have I ever. Obama is the Commander in Chief of the US Military."
No Helen, you get your minions, your knights in shining armor to do it for you.
"Helen" " I do not know how that applies to ex military or their benefits, but active military may NOT criticize their Commander in Chief."
I don't see retired Admirals and Generals who openly criticize their Idiot in Chief loosing any of their benefits. However, way back when I first entered boot camp, our company commander lined us up and told us that while we were in the military, we'd be living as near to a communistic life as we had better hope we ever would.

Don, no one says that Obama did the legwork for the operation. Just like Carter did not. A LOT of people are involved in these missions, and the Commander in Chief filters out the information and decides which missions are viable and which are not. You know that.
No one said that it was the FAULT of anyone in the military when a mission goes south, but the Commander in Chief, who gave the order's reputation DOES go south. That's the price you pay for approving missions. Some are not approved.
What MINIONS are you referring to? I have no MINIONS.
As for retired military, why would they lose their benefits? They are not in the military anymore. They did swear an oath to abide by the Military Code of Justice, but I have never seen anyone held to it after discharge or retirement.

Now if Queen Helen will excuse me, we have some creeps prowling the neighborhood, looking for a house to burglarize, and I've got a pump 12 Ga loaded with 00 buck, especially for them. Gonna sit on the dark porch and wait for them.
Notice, Helen completely side stepped what I said about when Ocommie knew about the where abouts of Bin Laden.
