Heard a talk show today that made the very astute observation that when the ‘worker bees’ of this nation decide to stay home because it costs more to go to work and hire baby sitters than it is worth it will definitely be the beginning of the end.
The truckers will probably be the first to go then it is downhill from there.
EVERYBODY had better wake up quick.
The ‘preaching to the choir’ folks keep bringing up how much the cost of gas has risen since the Libs took control of the House and Senate, but the MSM keeps quoting Pelosi & Co about how bad Bush, Cheney and Big Oil is screwing us.

People are waking up but they don't really know what to do. It seems obvious to me and maybe to you but all they have heard for the last six year is how evil Bush is and the Republicans haven't help themselves at all by acting like Democrats. Memories are short when not reminded how the Dems said the were going to fix gas prices 2 years ago they blame the guy's they perceive to be in charge. Collectively we forget that the Democrats have been obstructing any reasonable energy solutions for more than 20 years, heck 30 years. That why I think it will be the 2010 elections before the s**t hits the fan electorly. I just hope things don't take a real ughly turn in the mean time.

The media want to give the appearance of being cutting-edge and confrontational, but they will put their parent companies’ financial and legal health to risk by questioning the real centers of power in American politics.
The MSM are companies, not Paul Reveres.

Oops, that came out sounding both dumb and hostile... I meant to say the MSM will *not* put their parent companies to risk. Only a Paul Revere would do so. No hostility intended.
