Washington Politics....what a joke!

OK, OK, OK....so I am not consistent and I am not the best blogger, but oh well. The final four is still going on and that has been my life on the weekends and work has taken up much of my time during the week so that is all I will say about that.

Let's see, gas prices are on the rise, Congress is grilling oil exec's for making money (go figure), Barak and Hillary are still at it, and my house still has not sold. What a week! I want to start off talking about gas prices. This may take a while so if you want to go and get something to drink or take your shoes off or whatever it is you do to get comfortable and listen to my ramblings, go do it because this should be good. I have a couple of things to say about the whole oil thing.

1. To the environmentalist whackos, "WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU????". Do you really care that much about a caribou or what an oil rig is going to look like in the ocean? Come on? When did the caribou ever get a job and contribute anything to this country. I think they will be alright moving about 20' to the left without too much of a problem. Also, what are you trying to protect up in ANWAR? You guys are crazy in my opinion. Don't you think that things would be easier for everybody if we were to start drilling here and build some refineries. (By the way, we haven't built a refinery in about 30 years......thanks Democrats for that). Let's start worrying about our daily lives instead of putting animals ahead of our well being. Next thing you know, Dems will be wanting health care to extend to wildlife and have them treated in hospitals. Hey, maybe I could run on that platform.....? This brings me to my next point. CONGRESS......if I knew how to make an angry face or something like that I would put it right here and for the next few sentences....but here is why I am a little upset.

2. Congresss has been grilling these oil exec's for making a profit on their business. HELLO....CAPITALISM....have you heard of it? I thought that the purpose of having a business iS to make money. Maybe that's just me. I don't know what these Congressmen and women make but I know it is a lot more than me and no one seems to be grilling them about their profits. Maybe we should form a committee and go to Washington and sit them in front of a panel and tell them that they need to make less and how they should be ashamed at the high taxes they create when there are decent people suffering. Is this hitting a nerve? I hope so because I am SOOOOOOOOO disgusted at our government right now. They are spending my money to scold a company for making money on their business. INSANE!!!!!! Second thing is, I can't believe that these people are so dense and ignorant that they can't see that "big oil" doesn't set the price. The market sets the price and if you ever took economics you would know that when demand is rising the price rises along with it. DUH......can you tell how upset I am.

Let me stop for now because if I go on I might not get any sleep and then my wife will be upset with me, it will cause me to be grumpy and say things I shouldn't, I would get fired, lose my job, have to go on welfare, rely on the government to pay for my house and my food and my health care, get sick and have to wait for 3 months for a life saving surgery, not be able to pay my medical bills and Congress would have to pass another law to help me out........then when all this is said and done, you would see me on the poster for the next Democratic Convention with the tag line......"We changed Washington and here's our proof..."

THAT'S THE WAY I SEE IT.......
