Do you feel better now?
I see the price of oil has been around $85 a barrel for a while now, but gas at the pumps is still close to $4.00 a gallon. Funny how that is.
A couple years ago, when gas was around $4.00 a gallon, the price of a barrel of oil was almost $150.
But, no one is making an issue of it these days.
Funny what we get trained to accept.
I'm not sure what makes me feel worse, the fact she stole 600k or taxpayer money, or the idiots in the government that didnt notice.
What she did was wrong but considering her apparent health problems wouldn't it be cheaper on the taxpayers to just put her under house arrest?
As for her paying it back, that will never happen.
I still don't think she acted alone. It's too much money over too long a period, and no one can figure out what she did with the money.
Something is still fishy and it smells like a scapegoat.
If she was a scapegoat wouldn't she be singing?
OMG! We all get ripped off EVERY DAY for far more money than this idiot stole, but what does the public whine about? A lone case of petty larceny.
Maybe we should be talking about the Casey murder, and how outrageous the not guilty verdict was, because CLEARLY we don't care that child murder happens every day. All we respond to is what the media feeds us.
NOTE: I won't have any computer access until late tomorrow. Sorry in advance for any comments that can't be published until then.
I'll be out in the boondocks tomorrow, saw a picture of that wreck in the fish wrap, amazing that anyone lived through that. But the wrong guy died.
