The food industry lobbied Bush for less regulations and got it. What has that yielded? Lower prices? Hell no! Instead we have been plagued with one outbreak after another of food related illnesses. In turn that has cost the food industry millions of dollars in loss revenue. There are a few lessons to take from […]
Cenk brings up an interesting point (via Cesca): The oil that comes from that drilling will not be United States property (Republicans aren’t suggesting we nationalize the oil companies, are they?).

A “gang of 14” House Republicans won’t endorse John McCain: At least 14 Republican members of Congress have refused to endorse or publicly support Sen.
