I'm So Glad I Don't Own a Car

Gas prices are rising but don't worry, our government has it ALL under control.

From today's NY Times:

The White House responded yesterday by saying it would release oil from the nation's emergency stockpiles to meet shortages and would relax environmental standards nationwide so that refiners could produce more - but dirtier - gasoline.

For two well-written pieces on the bullshit emanating from the White House, check here and here.

I went to it only because I was getting bombarded with crap all of a sudden and I don't want to compel people (relatives etc) to get a blogger account (another set of details on file to be sold to bulk mailers etc) to leave the occasional message. It is sort of impersonal though, eh? If there is a better solution folks, share.
