It’s Summertime After All

I’m heading to the beach for a few days, but before I go…

Which is worse? John McCain continuing to treat Americans in general, and Floridians in particular, as if we are all mouthbreathers. Or the fact that our governor, Charlie Crist, is going along with it?

The oil companies are trying to get certain areas up for oil exploration: Alaska, Gulf of Mexico, etc.

“The prices will come down if we can drill where we want, we swear…”

Sure. This is nothing new, they’ve been trying this for years. They did so after 9/11, after Katrina, whenever they think it might work. So far, Florida’s governor has been on our side.

Now he wants to be vice-president so he’s running to McCain’s side to push drilling in the gulf. As if pretending to be straight wasn’t humiliating enough. Jim Johnson over at State of Sunshine put it best with this postcard.

He should add Charlie Crist’s name as well. So if you’re a real conservative, I suppose Bob Barr is the only real choice.

Say it with me: President Obama.

And this guy, at least he’s telling the truth.

Say with it with me: Seven minutes.
