Inflation Rate Is Worst in 17 Years

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Higher costs for energy and food last year pushed
inflation up by the largest amount in 17 years, even though prices
generally remained tame outside of those two areas. Meanwhile, industrial
output was flat in December, more evidence of a significant slowdown in
the economy. Consumer prices rose by 4.1 percent for all of 2007, up
sharply from a 2.5 percent increase in 2006, the Labor Department said
Wednesday. Consumers felt the pain when they filled up their gas tanks or
shopped for groceries. Prices for both energy and food shot up by the
largest amount since 1990.

I'm tellin' ya....we should've invaded Saudi Arabia instead of eye-rock, and
just taken their damned oil. At least we could've been honest about that
mission. Put the whole damned country under new management.

Speaking of SA, did you see our fearless leader begging in the Middle
East for the Saudis to drill more? If memory serves, oil was *around $25
a barrel when President Idiot presumed office in 2001.- Hide quoted text -

He's even selling them weapons!

Did you see him marching around with the slimey Saudis with the sword on
his shoulder?


A sword on his shoulder??? Oh no....a re-run of the flight suit on the
aircraft carrier pose.

I remember the discussion earlier of high oil prices being blamed on the
speculators in the trading pits.

I remember that, too. It's back. The word "investors" is in the sentence
below. Who are these "investors"?

that demand for energy is likely to fall.

He was marching with the slimey Saudis in some sort of procession. You
think maybe he was being inducted into the local masonic lodge?

The Harry and Joe circle jerk continues..

Actually the opening line was: 'Under Nancy Pelosi and the Democrat
controlled Congress'
Sorry, Bilious, but the Democrats do not control Congress. They have
simple majorities. When you control Congress, you have supermajorities,
enough votes in your own party to control legislation and to overturn
presidential vetoes.

Not to worry. Next January, the Democrats will control the White House
and increase their simple majorities in Congress.

Unless your write-in campaign for Zell Miller or some other lunatic
succeeds.

What economic policies there are in place now are those of the Bush
Administration.

Bad news for the GOP. So sad.

They control congress. They have a majority.

Thanks, Forrest.

Jesus. You really are dumb as a post.

They don't control? They have more votes. You are the one who is either
dumb or specializing in lies.

One must wonder, "Where is Chuck?"

HEY CHUCK! Isn't this 'political horse ****'?

Yeah. And I'm doing my best not to participate in it, thank you.
I slip once in a while, but there's a huge difference between hoping
to find some boating related discussion at this site and cranking out
one troll-post after another.

Wonder what they'd think over on the "libs.r.us" or "bush.for.king"
sites if I just started posting a bunch of boating related threads? My
bet is that would be just as silly and out of place as all the
political trolls are on this boating site.

Yeah, yeah. "You can ignore them".

That's like trying to ignore the litter after the recycling truck
rolls over at the corner. :-)
