Must be an election soon

-By Rob Rogers of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

And since the election is few short months away, Congress has to pretend they are doing something about gas pricing so they are holding a hearing on the pipline leak.

But not the secret meetings that both the White House and oil executives lied about.

Or whether or not giving over $14 billion in tax breaks to big energy companies has produced anything for the American taxpayer.

Or the fact that mergers in the refinery industry are pushing up prices for consumers.

Do you think they'll make the oil execs testify under oath in this time?
