Inflation

Haven't bought duck tape for a long time but needed some. Went to Lowes. Decent, brand name, tape from $6.00 a roll! Walked around looking at common stuff, glues, roof patch, paint, etc. All much higher than six months ago.

Given most of this stuff is imported, I suspect the price hike reflects the weak dollar.

This whole event stunk from "go". The timing, the announcement, the quick Muslim burial, the victory laps from the White House, and Obama's complete lack of dignity and humility in the last nine days, including the release of the so called birth certificate. makes me sick to my stomach.
And they call anyone who dares to disbelieve a racist conservative right wing nut.
Take a look at this blog and tell me who the racists are.
