The price of meat is going to increase also, with the price of grains, and the price of fuel to make hay.

The EPA just announced the increase of Ethanol to 15% allowable in gasoline fuels.

The increase in corn price also causes other grains and hay to go up as farmers switch to growing corn because of its price. It then makes the other items scarce and then they go up.

And they forget the added repair bills for everyone running that crap. 15% will destroy most engines.

Why is Odumbass the only one there without a suit and tie?

Who are these people in the room with him and why doesn’t any one of them have the balls to stand up and slap him silly?

This is like high school government day in washington- except they stayed longer than one day and wont leave

Next they will vote on whether to have a pizza party and coke machines at the next school dance

Obama is accomplishing his goals at a pretty fast clip.

Ethanol and sugar tariffs explain a lot of misuse of corn, into “fuel” and HFCS respectively.

Personally, I believe that the era of everything we know is coming to a close...rapidly.

There is no longer a force for Good in this world.

Only Evil.

God Help Us All.

I don’t plan on winding up a serf of a neo-feudal wannabe lord.

As I keep telling yinz, we are reliving the Carter Administration in every possible way.

My only hope is that this will lead to another Reagan.

Nope, we’re far too “on the alert” for any attempt to disarm the people.

And, as I’ve said, the left may complain about the Tea Party, but they need to understand,

The Tea Party is the last resort before the shooting starts.

I predict the end of homeless dogs and cats. In fact, the homeless cats in the haitian neighborhood I visit are dwindling. Not a joke.

Next on the carter/obama agenda: Gas lines, odd/even days, being told to put on a sweater and freeze in our homes to save energy. Difference then was we didn’t have a kenyan muslim running the show.
For those who didn’t experience the 70’s, yall had better listen to those who did.

More than likely, it will be one of the “tolerant” and “saintly” liberals that will open up first.

I was only a young kid but I remember the disasterous Carter years.

Actually, I doubt it.
The libs, especially the “useful idiots”, will expect “the government” to “do something about” the dissenters.

BTW, have you checked out “Agenda” yet? (tagline)

A food crisis is a 100% contrived crisis, entirely the fault of greenies and liberals.
You can’t burn you food and eat it too.

Goat granny, I remember too and you are exactly correct.

I am not convinced “another Reagan” could turn it around as firmly and quickly though. The federal government has reached new levels of predatory method, ability and intent in the the past 22+ years.

It will take more good candidates, electoral sea change AND THE OVERT, EXPRESS AND DETERMINED WILL OF THE PEOPLE to reduce this bureaucratic, parasitic welfare State to oblivion.

I am interested to see how very abusive federal authorities are towards domestic political opposition, in contrast to their solicitous concern for rioting Islamist mobs in Egypt.

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”
