Oil right now is the Obama of commodities
Experts still forecast that oil will trade for $150… $175… $200 a barrel by December. Just last week, oilman T. Boone Pickens predicted $300 oil before a Senate panel. And new Russian Prez Alexander Medvedev recently pegged the upside at $500. It’s supply and demand, the argument goes. The new economic superpowers China and India…

Barack Obama (D) / Larry Craig (R) campaign button
Change we can believe in……. BTW, that’s Larry Craig pictured, the Republican senator NOT running for US Senate and whom, last year, was caught in the airport restroom tapping feet under the stall walls.

State revenue: Cut taxes cautiously
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 7/27/8 By his own admission, one of the goals that Gov. Haley Barbour had for his Tax Study Commission was a thorough examination of the state’s tax structure in hopes of being able to deliver a restructuring of the system that might enable some state tax cuts.

Lawmaker wants to strip governor’s pardon power
The Sun Herald, 7/27/8 Brandon Jones was 12 when Adrienne Klasky Graham’s ex-husband gunned her down at a busy intersection in Pascagoula, but he remembers it and the effect it had on his community. “All of us living in Pascagoula in 1989 remember that day,” said Jones, now a young attorney representing Pascagoula in the…

Barbour responds to trusty flak

Challenges: Poverty still haunts Mississippi
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 7/28/8 “It is a revolutionary world we live in. Governments repress their people; and millions are trapped in poverty while the nation grows rich; and wealth is lavished on armaments.” – Robert F. Kennedy Forty-one years ago, when Robert F. Kennedy visited the Mississippi Delta in what would become one of a…

Coaches, media like oil, water
Coaches, media like oil, water There exists a fundamental rift between college football coaches and the writers that cover college football.

Tebow does more than play football
Tebow does more than play football The afterglow surrounding Tim Tebow still is stunning to watch. Be careful, though, not to get caught staring into the orange and blue hues of Tebow’s uniform or the dazzling whites of his smile because you’re likely to get trampled by the “paparazzi” hot on his trail. On Wednesday,…

Media Days Rewind… and Poison! – SEC Every summer, I look forward to SEC Media Days. When the college baseball season ends, and even when I head out on vacation, this event is always somewhere in my mind. Not only is it the next big thing to cover, it also means football is pretty much…
