Big Ol' Smitty

Except neither of the candidates has proposed carbon taxes. And all three candidates, including St. John, favor cap & trade.

Jingus, I was referring to global demand, not US demand. Oil is a global commodity, and I haven't seen anything predicting that global demand is going to be slowing down anytime soon--which is part of the reason why it's crucial for the US to shift away from an oil economy. Even if we do cut back consumption considerably, demand from China, India, & other industrializing nations (along with the dwindling supply or "peak oil" that most analyses I've seen point to--although it could be wrong, I dunno) is going to keep prices high.

According to the law of demand, when the price of something drops, the demand for it increases. You could argue, probably successfully I would say (I haven't look at this) that demand for gasoline is inelastic, but we're getting into boring economic issues here. I think what we can pretty much agree on here is that this gas tax scam is pandering of the lowest order.

I am very skeptical of this statement. Let me amend this and say that this is just flat out wrong.

Um, yes. It could.

Exactly. And I'd rather sit down with the Korean pop star Rain that Sun Tzu.

I am very skeptical of this statement.

I'm not saying that Hagee is the same as Wright. I am saying that standing up, accepting, & being proud of this guy's endorsement is not a good thing.

Would you really want to sit down & have dinner with Sun Tzu, Moses, or Karl Marx? You guys are just trying to sound intelligent.

So how come St. John of Arizona doesn't have to reject & denounce ® this guy?

Who you crappin?

Hey have you made any youtubes lately? I shared the Tribute to Our President with some of my pals!

I like that the title of that picture is bulldyke.

Hey, it's Smitty.

This man... ...has a show

stop it

So, hows about that gas tax holiday?

The Kentucky boy nails it, as usual.

No, most people can't agree on this: This is bullshit. Racist pseudoscience fueled what the Nazis were doing, not anything approaching real science. Ben Stein uses the death camps and the Zyklon-B gas chambers to push modern day pseudoscience and to smear real, actual science. He should be a national laughingstock.
