Michael, go ahead and vent will ya! <vbg> I do agree with you though.
Uncle Sammy is subsidizing the poor tobacco farmer and considering tarrifs to help out the steel industry. The oil industry is so politically incorrect that they don't have a chance drawing any support from Clinton. I'm sure a poll has been done to see what the feelings are about the low oil prices and the damage being done to the industry. Heck, the low oil prices are just like an added tax break to keep this fairy tale economy running at full speed.

Nope, no help for the 'patch, wouldn't be prudent!

<<..the same way they will let our nation's defense go limp by lowering the defense budget.>>

Clinton's State of the Union recommended an INCREASE in the defense budget, including higher pay for military personnel.
