Oink, Oink!
House Approves Energy Measure0 comments
Consider this the Pork Futures Bill.
There's bribery aplenty here, as Congressmen and Senators get all manner of local pet projects larded onto Shadow President Dick Cheney's bloated Energy sector corporate goodies bag.
Lobbyists up and down K Street are doing their part to help grow the economy today, running out buying those new Rolexes and furs, and that Porsche they've had their eye on. Both for themselves and as "thank you" gifts.
Oh, yes, by the way...
How to pay for all this largess?
Hey, just toss it onto that Deficit Pile over there. Everyone wins here.
Except you.
And me.
And our grandchildren.
