If you liked Oboma's comments, I'm sure you'll love it when the new energy Tzar rewards utility companies for producing less thereby ensuring higher rates for consumers.  

It's Obama, for the record. And yes, I will love it, because I think we should have to pay more for things that are slowly destroying our earth so we're discouraged from using them. I barely make a living wage, so it's not like I'm some rich person who doesn't care how high my utility bills get. Remember how sales of SUVs essentially stalled when gas prices went up? Maybe higher gas/electric bills will encourage those of us who keep our thermostats set at tropical temperatures throughout the year to put on another sweater instead.

 Yeah I think we need to turn to renewable energy, but what the heck? Should I pay more taxes to keep myself warm in this "record cold" - global warming era? Or should I hold my breath so I don't release carbon into the atmosphere or let my car warmup in the morning.

I'm just waiting on socialized healthcare - so my job security goes out the window (I'm a nurse BTW). But - don't mind me - we all have to "give alittle" right? 

I sure hope he's better than Clinton -

But so far as I can tell - spending $150 million on an Inauguration party isn't very good start.

I know this is a "historic" event - and just so you know, I'm not white. But partying and giving speeches won't fix our economy.

I'm not Bush fan, but I know one man cannot be blamed for a world-wide economic crisis.

Let's see some action!
