Go-To-Hell-You-Bastards Day by Bob Higgs "NOW, THEREFORE, I, WILLIAM J. CLINTON, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim Monday, October 2, 2000, as Child Health Day. I call upon families, schools, communities, and governments to dedicate themselves to promoting and protecting the health and well-being of all our children." All hail mighty Clinton, savior of the young, protector of the vulnerable, enactor of every far-sighted and socially beneficial law. Surely, without a mighty Clinton to watch over us, we would all be most wretched, decrepit, and disgusting. Before mighty Clinton, we most graciously bow and scrape. Well, not really. NOW, THEREFORE, I, ROBERT L. HIGGS, Baron of My Own Bastion, do hereby proclaim Monday, October 2, 2000, as Go-To-Hell-You-Bastards Day. I call upon all decent, self-respecting persons of all creeds, colors, and preferences as to creamy or chunky peanut butter to dedicate themselves to repudiating, reviling, and mocking the pretensions of our loathsome leaders, foremost among them, Bill Clinton and Queen Hillary ("The Viper beneath the Throne"). pierrelemieux.org

The U.S. agreed to release oil in a bid to take the steam out of crude prices If that's why they did it then they broke the law. Congress did not give the Executive the power to manipulate the market price of oil. If their intention was (illegally) to manipulate the price of oil down, it's not clear they accomplished their goal. Yesterday the price was way up. This morning it's way down. All they've done is vastly increase the price volatility. Not a good thing.
