So, drop your pants and undershorts people! Yes, the gas prices are now at the same place they were when we were peaking in Katrina's aftermath last year. There isn't even any crisis other than Big Oil is having a crisis that they only have enough money to buy the world over three times and not 12 like they have been planning.
Bush even tried to do something, he launched an investigation and decided to lift some of those environmental restrictions that slow Oil production down. OooWEE! That'll do pig! Somehow, I feel that Big Oil will just profit some more and nothing will really change except that we are supposed to be used to over $3 a gallon and better like it when it goes over 4 or maybe even 5! Gee I sure hope they jostle my balls some during that assfucking!?
In other news, there has been a move getting some attention here in blogoland about how the Internet may be sold to the fun-loving, people first minded corporations (AT&T and Verizon) which will clearly make everything better. For the details check this and also this. Pretty awesome, eh?
I am starting to empathize with the Iranian President anymore. That said, there is at least this small nugget of joy. Despite the fact that it's way too late (2004 is now ancient history) America is now clearly aware that George W. Bush is a fucking moron. 32% at CNN!? He is a mere 5 or so percentage points away from Nixon levels! Which is good for the 2006 midterms bringing some power back to the left and screwing George out of his "legacy" with non-stop inquiries and if we are super lucky, impeachment.
The scary part is that he might go loco and invade Iran anyways...What does a loser have to lose?
