From the MSNBC.com Story Here. The first step in bringing down the costs of obesity in America, rather then pass it on to every taxpayer in the country.

Wow, how amazed am I that gas prices are down almost two dollars a gallon? Of course the latest story was quick to point out that they won’t go much lower, if they lower at all. The Big Oil guys will only go so far, even after the current administration gave them the richest years [...]

This is important stuff people, VERY important. Over the past couple of weeks, as Robert Greenwald’s new movie Iraq For Sale: The War Profiteers has been screened in theatres across the country, the buzz has been fantastic.
