I recall recently that $4.00+ gasoline was all the fault of George W. Bush.  I guess now we have to thank "W" for $1.80 gas.  Blaming him or praising him does seem a bit silly, doesn't it.

I heard something today that struck me as a bit odd - that being the NAACP has tabbed the Rev. Jeremiah Wright to be their keynote speaker at an upcoming convention.  I guess I'm not real sure that Wright's anti-American and hateful comments do a whole lot to advance the cause of the organization.  I'm sure he has done many good things for his congregation and neighborhood in Chicago but there must be others out there who have done as much, if not more, good and haven't asked God to damn America or accused the government of introducing AIDS in a plot to kill African Americans.  The NAACP is a viable organization and can certainly choose the speaker they want - I just wonder if they could have made a better choice.  What do you think?
