Not that this really needs to be said, but Pat Robertson is crazy.
Every time he opens his mouth, I just want to hurl things at him.
Oh, and I heard this little tidbit on the radio while in the car…apparently, there is some backlash over oil companies’ record profits. Yeah, that’s right. Record profits.
Excerpts:
The scrutiny intensified after Exxon Mobil, the world’s biggest oil company, posted a profit of 9.92 billion dollars for the third quarter — the biggest in US corporate history.
Democratic Senator Charles Schumer said the 29 major oil and gas firms in the Standard and Poor’s 500 stock index are expected to earn 96 billion dollars this year — up from 68 billion dollars last year and 43 billion dollars in 2003.
“It’s become perfectly clear that the big oil companies are cashing in while average American families are being bled dry,” Schumer said.
Schumer and other Democrats are pressing for legislation to tax the “excess” profits of oil firms to fund heating assistance programs, recovery from Hurricane Katrina and other programs.
I was screaming at my radio. Ugh.
I got my hair cut today…nothing crazy…but I just love Lynn at Papillon Salon so much. She always makes me look fabulous. Yes, I pay too much, but the fabulousness…
OK, I’ll say it again: I love riding my bicycle.
How much do you pay? Does she color it, too? Is it “Alyssa Milano short” again?
