Bush Legacy In The Middle East: High Prices

Even as it enriches Arab rulers, the recent oil-price boom is helping to propel an extraordinary rise in the cost of food and other basic goods that is squeezing this region's middle class and setting off strikes, demonstrations and occasional riots from Morocco to the Gulf.

In Jordan, the soaring price of oil led the government to remove almost all its costly fuel subsidies this month, pushing the price of some fuels up 76 percent overnight. In a devastating domino effect, the cost of basic foods like eggs, potatoes and cucumbers doubled or more.

Thank you, Lisa, for providing this site. Your
compilation of cartoons & images through the year are
worth a donation of at least the price of a good
dinner out. They are an invaluable source of
irritation to my hard-core republican friends & family
(as am I).
Best Regards - Pudge

Thanks Pudge!

My fuzzy math says if every AHNC viewer bought me one dinner. I'd never have to pay for a meal for almost a decade!

Think of all the food I could put on my family!

Subject: Donation drive

Lisa,

I wish I could give you a larger donation but I hope the little I've been able to give helps out. I just hope that even with the possible new Democratic administration your readers don't forget about all the good laughs, mutual tears and most importantly, all the hard work you've dedicated to helping expose the crooks and scoundrels since long before the mainstream populous got with the program. Way before it was cool to bash Bush you were doing it with style and I'll always be grateful to you for being a lonely voice of reason in what was a very dark time in our nation.

I wish I could believe the worst was behind us but even with Bush gone he leaves in his wake a lot of misery, despair and instability as well as a much more powerful privatized/corporatized government (Blackwater and Halliburton are obvious private versions of what used to be a national military; not to mention deregulated private broadcast, defunded public broadcast, environmental and consumer protections, science and medical research, as well as finance and credit regulations, energy and just about anything government once regulated or protected has been pawned off), and the ever growing irrational right-wing hate-machine... We need places like AHNC more than ever.

Thank you for everything,
~GEOFF

Big bear hug. You know how to make me cry.

And it doesn't feel good to have been right about Bush all these years, it sorta feels like pulling off the blue tentacles of a man-o-war that wrapped around your leg -- the tentacles are gone but the pain remains.

My donation drive so far has pretty much stalled and your generous donation made my weekend. Thank you.

I'll be around as long as you all want me.
