did anyone watch bush's address this morning? basically about the economy and alternate fuel. he talked about gas prices but didn't really answer anything. when a reporter asked him about the economy, he responded that he wasn't an economist. ???

His addresses are barely coherent anymore. We need a good orator in the Oval and fast.

What do you guys think about him overturning the oil-drilling ban?

It's now at a record high: $1.6407 per euro. At least it's keeping tourism and sales in the U.S., which is helping with the recession, but because we're such an import-heavy nation, it could significantly depress our economy even further.
