Random Thoughts

Does anyone ever notice that when gas prices are going up, the government DOES NOT include them in its consumer price index?  But when gas prices are going down, it does?  Can anyone really paint an realistic picture of inflation in this country, because obviously the government can't.

Secretary of State Hillery Clinton complains to the Russians because Moscow is still sending attack helicopters to Syria.  Meantime the slaughter goes on in Syria without anything stronger than protests from the west.  Does it bother anyone that Syria is aligned with Iran, Russia and China - and maybe that's why we don't care that women and children are being murdered there?

Israel is staying quiet about its plans against Iran.  That worries me more than anything, because when they're talking they are not acting.  When the Israelis stop talking, they are probably about to act.  I still think they will strike with US help before the US elections in November - before the election Obama will have no choice but to aid the Israeli strike.  After he's re-elected he can tell the Israelis to F@#$ off.

Why is it that every time I go on a diet, someone brings in free Pizza to the newsroom?
