This guy is trying to make a name for himself, and idiot or attempting to divert the issue of rising fuel prices by finding ways to put the onus on drivers.

From CNN.com:

An influential Republican senator suggested Thursday that Congress might want to consider reimposing a national speed limit to save gasoline and possibly ease fuel prices.

 

Sen. John Warner has asked the Energy Department at what speeds vehicles would be most fuel efficient.

Sen. John Warner, R-Virginia, asked Energy Secretary Samuel Bodman to look into what speed limit would provide optimum gasoline efficiency given current technology. He said he wants to know if the administration might support efforts in Congress to require a lower speed limit.

The FCC, an appointed body, not elected, answerable only to the president, decided on its own that radio and television were the only two parts of American life not protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution. Why did they do that? Because they got a letter from a minister in Mississippi. A Reverend Donald Wildman in Mississippi heard something on the Radio that he didn’t like. Well, Reverend, did anyone ever tell you there are two knobs on the radio? Two knobs on the radio!! Of course, I’m sure the Reverend isn’t that comfortable with anything that has two knobs on it. But hey, Reverend, there are two knobs on the radio. One of them turns the radio off, and the other one changes the station! Imagine that, Reverend, you can actually change the station! It’s called freedom of choice, and it’s one of the principles this country was founded upon! Look it up in the library, Reverend, if you have any of them left when you’re finished burning all the books.

I’ve been taking a lot of shots in Allenton, lately. Unfortunately, Allenton has been through a world of hurt recently with the flooding and last Saturday’s fire at the Allenton Inn.

So… uhm… here’s a cross-processed train.

The other day, I shaved off my goatee.

My almost-four-year-old daughter’s response: “you look like a girl, daddy.”

BOO.

Let’s hope that he made it higher that that.

George Carlin died of heart failure on Sunday. He was one of the best comics who ever lived. May he rest in peace.

The first five minutes were nice, though.

Read it on CNN.

DETROIT, Michigan (AP) — A young Muslim woman said she and another woman were refused seats directly behind Barack Obama — and in front of TV cameras — at a Detroit rally because they wear head scarves.

Goes to show the difference between the parties. The Republicans would have accepted this woman to show the diversity of their party. Democrats fear that a woman with a scarf will bring out the “Hussein” in Barack Hussein Obama.

It’s the party of tolerance*, people.

*Tolerance will be negated in the in the event that you disagree with the party’s stance, if you look different than the ideals set forth by the DNC, and/or if you do not inherently hate the United States of America. Conformity and assimilation required.
