"It's quite simple," pointed out John Hofmeister, chairman of Shell Oil. "As gas prices continue to rise, our trucking and transportation costs rise along with them. And I might add that Congress really should reimburse us for our travel expenses here today."

    They have to charge you more to cover what they're charging themselves.

      I'd like to donate some of my gas to them in their personal office. Free of charge.

      Think I'll have lots of eggs and beans first though. I want them to have the premium stuff. LMAO

      Good one ind06

      You know it's real bad as gas prices continue to rise. For instance, at the gas station near my house they have a slot for your credit card, and one right next to it for your 401K.

        I believe a few gasoline enemas for John Hofmeister may improve his ability to think more clearly.

        Have you seen the new warning stickers on the pumps?

        "Warning: it is dangerous to smoke when pumping gas up your ass."

              You laugh about your 401K to pay for gas. It won't be long before all of your 401K's disappear too if the zionist have their way. You all think you have money--get this--it's in their banks and all you have is a number you dumb bunch of dips**ts. The ballgame is in the last inning and the home team is way behind. Let's put it this way, "God won't bless a Godless America." 80% of you Judeo Christians are already in bed with the Antichrist and you don't know it! Lot's of luck folks

                Ricksfaith agreed with you until you started name calling; Not sure what I think about the last half of your comment.

                BTW it's a humor thread.

              Egad, Exxon Mobil's right. Rising Gas prices are what's behind the price of gas. Guess that means I need to switch to a baked bean diet and retrofit my Jeep to run on free gas. How can I fit "Blazing Saddles" onto a vanity license plate?

                Isn't this like the toaster calling the frying pan black? To date, the futures' market is controlling the outrageous price of oil...er, make that Bush...er, make that Osama bin Laden...er, make that corn-puffs in Idaho...

                  All the way to the bank, Dicax Maximus, which they probably own as well!
