DID I JUST HEAR A BUSH COMMERCIAL WHILE PUMPING MY GAS??????
I was at the Mobil station in Central Wisconsin, paying with my debit card. And...it was audibly distorted but I swear that coming from the screen on the pumb was an ad for horse's ass. Is this possible?????? Anyone????

1. Dunno, ask the station manager
If it's true, then announce VERY LOUDLY that you will no longer be buying your gas from him.

2. Given the shrub's crony relationship with Exxon-Mobil,
I wouldn't doubt that they're supporting his cause. I wouldn't think they'd do so at the pump, but i wouldn't put it past them.

3. It's very possible
There's a Mobil Station outside of Wausau oof of Highway 29 that has small TV screens on the pumps....tuned to FAUX! I think it's in Wittenburg but I'm not sure....

4. You talking about The Harvest?
It's my usual stop for gas, drinks and snacks when I go home for the weekend. I've heard of TV screens in Gas pumps before. The Shell Station in Marinette had 'em too, only those were tuned to NBC.

6. The gas pumps show whatever the attendant is watching on TV
They've got this in Algoma, too.

7. Ooooh, the sweet irony
Hearing his smarmy voice as you pay $1.96/gallon for gas. It's enough to make me ride a bike everywhere.
