Mission Accomplished


Oil closes at over $100 a barrel, which means that, finally, Shrub figured out how to make money in the oil business.

Interestingly, this might well be an unintentional instance of "compassionate conservativism" in action: the Gret Stet benefits from high oil prices, regardless of whether they're a function of the market or a consequence of idiotic foreign and energy policies (to be fair, there's probably a mix and match of all that...and more). In a similar vein, you probably saw the story in Pravda-Upon-Hudson about how foreclosed homes have become de facto homeless shelters.

Who knew they cared so much?
