I hope Whitehouse looks into record profits the Government gets for doing NOTHING! They do not deliver the oil, they do not refine the oil and best of all they go and hide on recess while the home heating season is another month closer. We need to DRILL DRILL DRILL for oil not into our pockets.

Maybe Senator Whitehouse should look into how much actors get paid. Will Smith made 80 million dollars last year! One man made 80 million dollars! I am calling for a congressional hearing on the price of movies. A-Rod makes 25 million dollars a year to play baseball! We need another congressional investigation into game prices! The Clinton's made 20 million dollars last year for public service and giving speeches! I say that's too much! Seize all that money an give it to the "poor". Boy, we have come so far from the days of "Ask not what your country can do for you..."
