Oil rises to record above $98 a barrel
Record oil prices edged closer to $100 a barrel Wednesday amid expectations of declining U.S. supplies. The weak dollar and OPEC’s apparent reluctance to pump more crude into the market also boosted prices.
ABC news may be suggesting that Republicans have gained a seat in the House of Representatives. This is the way news is reported today so I may as well follow the lead of the drive by media. Lets’ see how long it takes for them to correct this typo.
Pelosi: Clinton Camp Played Gender Card
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, R-Calif., said Monday that Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., hasn’t been treated differently because she’s the only woman in the presidential race, but added that her campaign appears to have been trying to exploit that perception in the wake of last week’s Democratic debate.

In a way, this is more proof that the surge is working. MSNBC has to tell all of us stupid idiots how to set our clocks back one hour. Remember you can refer to your owner’s manual, or take it in to a store for help.
This Sunday at 2 a.m. marks the end of Daylight Saving Time, and that means it is time to set your clocks back one hour. The return to Standard Time is happening a week later this year, which caused some computer clocks and other electronic devices to fall back an hour one week too early.
People with atomic clocks, which automatically reset themselves to the Universal Time do not need to be concerned with adjusting clocks. But battery-run, time-keeping devices will need a little attention.
Tracy Rheaume said there are a few steps for people to take if they are concerned about resetting their clocks. “They can refer to their owner’s manual, or they can come to a store like ours, and we could help them with that, or they can contact the manufacturers on how to reset that,” Rheaume said.

The most influential US liberals: 1-20
Leaving him off the conservative list was a difficult decision but Schwarzenegger’s defiance of Republican orthodoxy and move towards California liberalism leaves him better placed to influence the liberal sphere. Even unstinting Schwarzenegger support of a Rudy Giuliani general election campaign in California would be unlikely to deliver the state to Republicans. His marriage to Maria Shriver took him into the Kennedy clan.
As an Austrian-born immigrant, the former body builder and action movie star is barred from the presidency, though he has not ruled out a run for the US Senate in 2010 if Barbara Boxer retires. Schwarzenegger’s actions to combat global warming have prompted an alliance with Tony Blair and are likely lead to his working more closely with Al Gore. For any Democrat entering the Oval Office, one of the first calls will be to Schwarzenegger.
