The Republicans, if you haven't noticed, are in control. How the hell can the Democrats' policies be instrumental in doing *anything* when they can't get them implemented in Congress? Gas prices per se are unlikely to be affected by anything Congress does in any case. The Democrats *have* proposed one measure after another to improve national security only to have them voted down by the Republicans. The consensus of independent expert opinion is that Bush's policies have made us *more* vulnerable to terror, not less.
