Kenders' Musings

Congressman Brad Sherman (Dumbass-Ca) held a telephone townhall tonight and I called in and asked him if he agreed with his colleagues statement about nationalizing the oil companies.

His response?

Dunno what it would've been as they didn't get to my question. Whether it was a swamped line with no time to get to me or maybe the Congressman didn't want to answer my question I will never know. But I am guessing it is the latter.


Someone else asked about gas prices and Congressman Sherman responded by talking about a BTU tax that was beaten down in the senate a few years ago and says he has been pushing for higher gas taxes to force people to conserve. Nice guy. Instead of raising our taxes why don't you let some new refineries get built so that we can turn our more gasoline to meet demand, thereby causing the prices to drop?

Asshat.
