"Ironic: Bush warns against gas profiteering." - headline at Fark.

This morning, [Smarty McGeniusson] told Diane Sawyer on ABC's Good Morning America that to ease skyrocketing gas prices Americans "oughtta conserve more and I would hope Americans conserve if given the choice."

Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean issued a statement reminding President Bush that in case he hadn't noticed, ordinary Americans have been doing their part.

They have been making sacrifices, they have been suffering. Meanwhile President Bush has failed to rein in skyrocketing gas prices. Now, in the wake of Hurricane Katrina, as Americans pull together to do their part, and gas prices again explode, Chairman Dean suggested that perhaps it's time for President Bush to finally use whatever influence he may have to call on his friends and campaign contributors in the oil and gas industry to bear their fair share of the burden.
