Venezuela. Last I heard gas there was 17 cents a gallon.
Dumbya, where's the hydrogen car you promised us for Christmas?
Maybe Atrios should take cheaper vacations so he won't have to run McSame ads to fund them.

Well, Atrios, if Obama had had his way, we would all be buying gas in Illinois, right?
What we need is somebody who has never been within a country mile of shop floor workers, to suddenly become a hard drinking Annie Oakley.

Dubai of course. That's where all the moguls go for holiday.

I've never been there but I heard about a place in the heart of Philly. It has a rooftop deck with a BBQ.

Here we go.
Some years ago Canada banned cod fishing because we were running out of cod.
A gas tax holiday would be as if Canada had subsidized the costs of the fisherman, rather than shutting them down.
A gas tax holiday is such an appalling idea for so many reasons, it's sure to be enacted.
And oil companies will reciprocate by lowering the price as well and won't be at all tempted to jack up the price more. Right? Right?
Here we go.

A truly great nym, by the way...
It turns out many scenes in that Man vs. Wild were staged. There's a scene where Bear Grylls is descending the Sierra Nevadas and he comes across a group of purported 'wild horses' and expends great care trying to mount one and ride it down. The mount fails and it turns out they were tamed horses from a local dude ranch.
Fake trolls, parody trolls, trannie trolls, concern trolls, purity trolls, and troll trolls.
And thats just Butler.
Thanks much, Brooklyn Girl. I like to say "flittermouse"--a cute word all by itself.

I'm sorry, Catalexis. A most cruel disease.
If the "gas tax holiday" actually saved me any money I'd send all $2.87 of it to the Obama Campaign along with my next Outraged-at-Clinton donation.
A velvet puppy! I want one of those.
Dang, a kerfuffle while I made another cup of coffee
I'm sorry, Catalexis. Yeah, alzheimers sucks.
RUSH: We live in the United States of America, and the people who live here, many of them have not traveled abroad; and as a result there are many things that they take for granted and one of the things I think a lot of people take for granted is that we're pretty much like the rest of the world, except they're very impressionable and they're told that the rest of the world hates us.
The rest of the world only hates people like you, Limpy, because they don't wanna catch some kind of ass disease.

MAKING FRIENDS ALL OVER
The Swiss-based multinational food company, Nestle, has apologised to Azerbaijan after a free gift attached to a breakfast cereal backfired.
The CD-ROM featured information about countries around the world but the data on Azerbaijan caused outrage there.
It said that Azerbaijan had started a war against neighbouring Armenia and that the hotly disputed territory of Nagorno-Karabakh belonged to Armenia.
Nestle has withdrawn the cereal and promised to seize the offending CDs.

Hmm, Atrios, since you don't own a car, I'm not sure you're going to reap rewards from the gas tax holiday. Then again, since you don't own a car, you'll be able to take a holiday with the money you saved from not having to buy gas. I think you win.
Thanks, Res. I like yours too. One doesn't get to say res ipsa loquitur nearly enough in conversations.

I guess Atrios will have to go to that share-a-ride place he's always on about, and see if he can get at least a share of a gas tax holiday, à la M&M Enterprises.
At least something that will take him far enough to get to a place that serves authentic sumptuous Spanish entrées.
