NASA Admits To Selling Discount Fuel For Google Execs’ Private Jets. “NASA sold to H2-11 discounted jet fuel that was then used to fly a private 757, a 767 and 5 other luxury aircraft all over the world. H2-11’s principle owners are the same as Google’s: Sergey Brin, Larry Page and Eric Schmidt.”
Hint: It’s not “the people” who own private 757s and 767s.

In the fall of 2008, shortly before Obama was elected president, the price of a gallon of gas in Massachusetts was two dollars. In the 5 plus years since Obama was first sworn in, the price has been as high as four dollars a gallon, a 100% increase.
Anyone who has to drive to work knows the pain of that price increase all too well. As a member of that crowd, I found this news particularly insulting…
Also at Instapundit, HOPEY-CHANGEY: “If you look at the Census Bureau’s data on median household income (adjusted for inflation), you’ll see that the median American is earning less during the Obama years. And that’s true whether you use 2008 or 2009 as the base year.”
