Price Gouging? Never Fear! Sonny Is Here!

Almost 2,000 people had to be rescued from the aftermath of Hurricane Ike.  They ignored an evacuation order; they should have to deal with the repercussions.

 

Nobody worry!  Both the federal government and state governments are going to make sure that there's no "price gouging" at the gas pumps.

 

Once refineries come back online, the price of gasoline will drop to below pre-Ike levels thanks to oil dropping below $97 per barrel.

 

Don't worry, you have Johnny Isakson and Saxby Chambliss making sure that oil companies will be able to drill (barely) off the coast.

 

The Presidential race this year is going to cost over $1 billion.  If the economy is so bad, then why do people still have that much money to give to politicians?

 

Why does government grow?  Because individuals don't care, and politicians and lobbyists take advantage of that fact.

 

A jury in Great Britain acquitted (that means "found not guilty," for those of you in government schools) six enviro-terrorists for vandalizing a coal power plant because the damage was worth it to stop global warming.  Yet another attack on private property rights as a result of a radical environmentalist agenda.

 

A Saudi cleric said that it is legal to kill the owners of television networks that play programs deemed immoral.

 

The Washington Times has a nice write-up on Todd Palin, calling him a "secret weapon" for the Republican ticket.

 

John McCain went on "The View" Friday.  During a discussion of judges, Whoopi Goldberg asked him if she should "be worried about being a slave" if he was elected.

 

Randall Kennedy of the Washington Post is worried about what will happen to black psyche if Barack Obama loses.

 

Obama has been trying to make sure that troops stay in Iraq until he takes office.  I guess he wants his "moment to be great."

 

You think government schools are doing their job?  One third of college students need remedial courses before they can even start real college.

 

Vegetarians are more likely to experience brain shrinkage.  Isn't that a chicken-and-egg kind of question?
