Time to Resort to Conspiracy Theories

I'll say it again;

Democrats, socialists and other varied leftists will always resort to conspiracy theories because they are unable to accept the reality that their policies don't work.

Rather than accept reason, facts, research, statistics and common sense, they insist on living in their own little world where wealth is magically produced out of thin air, socialism works, the terrorists are simply misunderstood, and their relatively low incomes are the result of racism, sexism, ageism, glass ceiling, boys network, Bush and Haliburton.

So what I want you to do is pour yourself a nice tall drink, pull up a chair, and watch the left immediately default to their "Conspiracy Theory Mode" when they read this.

I say they're going to go with the "Big Oil owns Bush and Bush owns this administration and therefore controls the antitrust department" schtick.

About those "15 examples of price gouging".... I wonder out of how many specific instances being looked at. Was it 15 gas stations out the 10s of thousands that exist in the US, or what.

Great post.

They said they were across downstream operations from refining to retail outlets, so yeah, probaby 12 or so stations (which are independently owned and operated from Big Oil) out of the 30,000 stations did some gouging.

Of course this would be enough evidence for leftists to rationalize drive offs for low income scum buckets..er...I mean..."disadvantaged folks."
