Today's WTF Moment is Brought to You By Wall Street(IMHO)......

Last night my dad told me he heard a report that gas prices could be $5.00 by Memorial Day.

I think it's high time the government cracks down on Wall Streets speculators and their manipulation of the gas prices.

At this rate I will be able to go on my vacation this Fall. I just won't be able to afford to drive my rental car. :o

There go those liberal courts again... :p

Judge Rules Gay Rights Group Can Picket Target Stores
posted by: Steve Williams


An advocacy group can continue to gather signatures in support of gay marriage outside Target stores but must maintain a distance of 30 feet from store entrances, a judge has ruled.

The retail giant filed an injunction to prevent the group Canvass for a Cause from picketing outside stores, however a California Superior Court judge in San Diego County denied the injunction on Thursday saying that there was no evidence petition gatherers were being hostile toward customers as Target had claimed.

However, the judge also stipulated that campaigners should refrain from such conduct or Target would be well within its rights to remove them. The judge also said that campaigners must keep a distance of 30 feet from store entrances so that shoppers are not impeded from entering or existing Target stores.

One term of her as president and there wouldn't be any country left to govern. :o

Bachmann Says She Would Be a One Term President
posted by: Robin Marty


Minnesota Representative Michele Bachmann has stated that if elected, she would serve only one term as president -- and both parties breathe a sigh of relief:

"I'm a principled reformer, and my goal is to see the country turn around," Bachmann said. "I'm also committed to being a one-term president if that's what it takes in order to turn things around, because this is not about personal ambition."

Although the "Bachmann will be a one term president" jokes sort of write themselves, this is actually a pretty savvy political move for the candidate, who is showing much more political strategy than many give her credit for. As President Obama waxes and wanes in the court of public opinion, growing stronger or weaker depending on what bill is up for a vote, a there is a growing push for a new candidate to come into the Republican race and really push into frontrunner status.

Some of the stronger Republicans who haven't declared: New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, Florida Senator Marco Rubio, Indiana Rep. Mike Pence, could all potentially change their minds about deciding to sit out until 2016, a non-incumbent year, if Obama begins to look more beatable. If Bachmann makes it clear that 2016 would not be a reelection year, even if she does manage to win the White House, those potential strong candidates would be more likely to continue to wait on the sidelines.

Plus, this grabs her a few more headlines, and if there is one thing Bachmann is good at, it's getting the attention of the media
