Batteries, Aziz!
Um, Mr. Prez,
I hate to be flippant, but have you noticed gas prices lately? They are quietly creeping back up to the levels they hit last summer--the media isn't really talking about it for some reason, and anytime a pundit or talking-head is asked about it, they scoff at the idea of gas hitting four dollars again. The fact of the matter is, gasoline prices have more than doubled in the last six months. Where is the limit?
Can you get on that?
