Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell today announced that his campaign has launched a new ad focused on Bruce Lunsford's record on gas prices. In 1980 as Governor John Y. Brown's chief legislative liaison , Bruce Lunsford successfully lobbied to change the way Kentucky taxes gasoline, changing it from a flat amount to indexing the tax to the wholesale cost of gasoline. This means that as the cost of gas increases the tax paid by Kentuckians automatically increases as well.

beware our goverment is now thinking of rasing gas taxes,there a movement going on right now by the feds, a gas hike would be bad at this time , gas is the reason that were in a depression now , if the price of gas didnt go up last summer we wouldnt be in troube today , it stop car sales, and production of new cars, people didnt go out and our economy went down the drain , so a gas hike would be a bad move now , lets get on track first
We want to thank the most HONOURABLE SEN.McCONNELL for working hard to help us in fighting the high gas prices,while others are blowing steam but not really doing things to help but makes choices that only hurts us KY'S.
DUMB AD. Does the good senator think I'm stupid or something? I saw through it right away, as did most others. Gas prices are an international problem as I have heard 'fungible' to the point of nausea.
You have either a serious comprehension problem, johnkyblue, or just dishonest. The ad is reference to the automatic gas tax increase policy that Lunsford implemented and bragged about - making a bad problem even worse.
That is not a defense of your initial false post, period, and is changing the subject (not honest of you - again). The GOP also did not have 60 votes to override Democrat filibusters - yet another false statement on your part.
That is again not a response to the previous post, nor the second. Any more nonsense you'd care to peddle? They did not have 60 votes to override Democrat filibusters to allow more drilling. The point stands.
Then why did it cost so much and do so little? Why didn't it speed up the exploration of the land already set aside for drilling? All this when the GOP House, the GOP Senate, and the GOP President got that bill through.
What about the DNC bigwigs who have oil companies in their stock portfolios or accept money from the same companies you bitch about? And if liberals hate oil so much, why do they support Hollywood "environmentalists" in private jets?

I don't care about $0.20 near as much as I care about a 2x increase during their watch.
GOP = Big Oil.
