And peace will guide the planets. Liberal Larry from the BlameBush web site says that a new day will dawn when Hilliary nationalizes the Oil industry. Hey you can’t argue with the facts! Believe me I know. I watched Meet the Press this week and I saw Tim russert try. He actually asked this question to the assembled panel.  He actually said on TV and this was not a rhetorical question. He repeated it several times.

 

MR. RUSSERT: Mr. Secretary, if, if demand is up but supply is down, why are the profits so high?

It’s at the bottom of the page. You can see the video there too.

 

 So check Larry out. He may have a point. Looks like he is just as smart as Russert

 

"Thankfully, politicians are finally taking steps to punish greedy corporations that profit at the expense of the consumer. In California, wise Democrat leaders are proposing heavy fines on the petroleum companies should their obscene earnings rise any higher. With their costs shooting through the roof, Big Oil would then be forced to lower prices at the pumps. If they took it once step further and confiscated all of Big Oil’s profits, logic dictates that gas prices would then drop to mere pennies a gallon (plus state and local taxes). Only a Democrat could think up such a brilliant idea. But it’s not rocket science folks. It’s simple economics. "

 


 

Outside it was even more fun more at the Correspondents Dinner

About 15 protestors from the conservative Web site Free Republic raised a fuss outside on a sunny evening, passing out baby pacifiers with “CNN” written on them and carrying signs. One featured a picture of Osama bin Laden and the words: “My best friends are Dana Priest, James Risen, and Eric Lichtblau” (all recently named Pulitzer winners).

Inside, Valerie Plame and husband Joseph Wilson were in the crowd spilling out of the ABC News party (they are guests of the network at the dinner). Plame was pleasant, but asked by E&P why she came tonight she said, “I’m sorry,” adding in mock-red carpet lingo, “I’m wearing Armani.” Her gown was ivory.

Asked what might happen if she met the president, she repeated, “I’m wearing Armani.”

Off that subject, she explained that since leaving the CIA in January she’d een taking care of the couple’s kids. “It’s more fun and more difficult” than working at the agency, she said.

“We thought it would be fun,” she finally said about the dinner. “We look forward to a delightful evening.”

I think we should move beyond calling Bush incompetent for the way he is running the war in Iraq and accept that the war was only for Oil. Let's be ok with that, unless you want the price to go up even more. Bushco, by actually making the price go up to the point everybody hates him and the republicans, and thinks the economy is in the dumper has failed in the blood for oil department. His plan to steal the Arabs oil is an utter failure. He can't even steal oil correctly! What kind of a Texan does that? His big oil friends must laugh at him behind his back all of the time. I am willing to bet his grades at big oil man school were really low. With the way this Iraq war for oil has gone you would think that the only way he got through Big Oil man school was because of his father. He most likely didn’t even go to class. He didn't just dodge Vietnam. He dodged Big oil man school by saying he had to do his national guard time. At least that is that way I heard it at the film festival.  I’m going to be looking into it because, Man! This gas thing sucks. I can barley afford to run my boat on the weekends.

Settlement Agreement Ends State Investigation of Rush Limbaugh
Fri Apr 28 2006 18:59:55 ET

Palm Beach, FL – April 28, 2006 – In response to media and other inquiries, Roy Black, Rush Limbaugh’s attorney, released the following statement today concerning a settlement agreement with the Palm Beach County State Attorney’s Office to end the investigation of Mr. Limbaugh:

"I am pleased to announce that the State Attorney’s Office and Mr. Limbaugh have reached an agreement whereby a single count charge of doctor shopping filed today by the State Attorney will be dismissed in 18 months. As a primary condition of the dismissal, Mr. Limbaugh must continue to seek treatment from the doctor he has seen for the past two and one half years. This is the same doctor under whose care Mr. Limbaugh has remained free of his addiction without relapse.

“Mr. Limbaugh and I have maintained from the start that there was no doctor shopping, and we continue to hold this position. Accordingly, we filed today with the Court a plea of ‘Not Guilty’ to the charge filed by the State.

“As part of this agreement, Mr. Limbaugh also has agreed to make a $30,000 payment to the State of Florida to defray the public cost of the investigation. The agreement also provides that he must refrain from violating the law during this 18 months, must pay $30 per month for the cost of “supervision” and comply with other similar provisions of the agreement.

  “Mr. Limbaugh had intended to remain in treatment. Thus, we believe the outcome for him personally will be much as if he had fought the charge and won.”

The actions taken today are as follows:

The State Attorney has filed a single charge of doctor shopping with the Court. The charge is being held in abeyance under the terms of an agreement between the State and Mr. Limbaugh.

Mr. Limbaugh has filed a plea of “Not Guilty” with the Court.

The formal agreement between Mr. Limbaugh and the State Attorney will be filed with the Court on Monday. The terms of the agreement are substantively as follows:

Ø Mr. Limbaugh will continue in treatment with the doctor he has seen for the past two and one half years.

Ø After Mr. Limbaugh completes an additional 18 months of treatment, the State Attorney has agreed to drop the charge.

Ø Mr. Limbaugh has agreed to make a $30,000 payment to the State of Florida to defray the public cost of the investigation.

You don't change the world by hiding in the woods, wearinga hair shirt, or buying indulgences in the form of save the earth bumper stickers. You do it by articulating a vision for the future and pursuing it with all the ingenuity humanity can muster. Indeed, being green at the start of the 21st century requires a wholehearted commitment to upgrading civilization. Four key principles can guide the way:
