The oil companies' earnings are just under 10 percent of the price of a gallon of gas, while taxes take 17 percent.

Hillary wants to take all of the oil companies profits and redistribut them.

Will those who are dismantling this society from within or those who seek to destroy us from without be the first to achieve their goal? It is too close to call.

Thomas Sowell, American treasure.

When Democrats are criticized, they counter-attack. When Republicans are criticized, they apparently believe in "the soft answer which turneth away wrath." In politics, however, a soft answer is like blood in the water that provokes piranhas to more vicious attacks.

I hope the GOP leadership is reading.

"A reader says that he had a T-shirt made that said: "Stop Continental Drift!" It made as much sense as "Stop Global Warming.""

I have to disagree...

Continental Drift is actually happening... Global Warming... Not so much.

He's a genius. In so few words he gets to the heart of the entire spin. "Out of Context" has been spinning in my mind since "Dame Plame" spoke it on Friday. However, she was
never asked exactly what the true "context" was.

Civil cases have lots of Discovery and perhaps we will find out then if she is so foolish to continue.

Sowell forgot to ask why there is an expiration date on sour cream....JJ61 (wink)

"Women's Liberation" and the "sexual revolution" have not liberated women. They have liberated the sort of man who is a "love and leave 'em" kind of guy, who lets the woman deal with the consequences, including pregnancy.

Thanks for the ping and the post. Dr. Sowell is DY-NO-MITE!

Maybe the ladies of FR will beg to differ, but Sowell is so correct on this one.
