  Comment: Comment: Yesterday the Senate voted to table the discussion on a windfall gas tax for Big Oil , to regulate oil futures speculation which is driving the prices of commodities up and to make price gouging a federal crime.
  
  Was Barack Obama there making impassioned speaches to pursuade enough senators to vote for this discussion?
  
  No. He didn't even bother to show up to vote, that way he can still get money from Big Oil while claiming not to take money from lobbyists.
  
  Change we can believe in indeed. Seems like the More things Change the more they stay the Same.

  Comment: Stop all the whining and crying about gas prices, people! Somebody's got to pay for this war; it might as well be us. Besides, I don't hear any of the Democrats or Republicans complaining , do you? Well, okay then. As long as you keep replacing Democrats and Republicans with more Democrats and Republicans nothing is ever going to get better. Vote like you've always voted and you'll keep getting what you've always gotten.

  Comment: Let's see!
  Oil goes up, stock goes down!
  Well, sell stock and buy oil futures.
  Sure thing...
  When oil tumbles(?) buy stock!
  Perfect example of a kids seesaw!
