Now you should get a T-shirt that proclaims that fact, get a hat and a harmonica and play the blues on the steps till you get the money back in tips.

According to ABC News:
"Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., the presumptive 2008 Republican nominee for president, says a premature withdrawal from Iraq could mean a genocidal civil war".
McCain better send Muqtada a check fast.
He can;t keep up with reality

I saw an argument yesterday calling for making he oil industry a public utiility, like the electric companies.
I think it sounded like a pretty good idea.

Try buying it 20 gallons at a time, every week. For one car.
Then there's the other car....

I observed long ago that a premature invasion could mean a genocidal civil war.

Do you notice how the reasons for not leaving are the same as the ones for not invading in the first place?

I think it is ironic that could be the end result. The industry and it's protectors are setting themselves up not for regulation, but a complete take over at this point. Don't piss off the villagers.

------------------------
Has ABC said anything about the presumptive 2008 Republican nominee for President breaking the campaign laws that he helped to create? Did they say anything about it could land him 5 years in jail. That would be a year longer than his presumptive first term.

I love every once in a while they do the standard story about gas prices.
"There is no collusion!"
I remember when they did that with electricity and natural gas in California.
"Those plants just had to be shut down for maintenance their is no collusion."
Enron and El Paso Gas documents reveal.
Well actually their was.
"Well that was different!"
Not only do I want people to not snear when I talk about possible coordinated action, I want my money back!
What the trick is that the defination of coordinated action makes it really hard to stop when many people are all going after the same goal and it isn't based in a smoke filled hotel room.
It's just everyone knows what they need to do and nobody actually talks about it. Unless they do. And they get caught (Enron) and then the press will call us Tin Foil hatters the next time we suggest collusion.

I'd be more inclined to say 'stylized' than 'abstract'. Usually in art, when something is considered abstract there are no definable real-life things like people or animals (including symbols).

Nationalize the energy, transportation, communication, healthcare, and hell just take it all -- revolution baby! Use the time to develop responsible rules for corporate citizenship and after say ten or fifteen years slowly reintroduce capitalism...it needs a sizable time out though. I don't for a minute assume the state is the appropriate PERMANENT guardian of these industries, but it will be easier to fix some glaring problems if we take it away from the WATB who don't want to fucking pay for anything!.

The problem with Obama voters is they don't know what real working class Democrats know. Yup, gas is expensive. It has been for a while.

I paid €1.229 per litre when I filled up the other day (Ireland). That works out to around $6.50 to $7.00 a gallon.
Yes, gas is so expensive. Must be awful.
