I started posting on HowieinSeattle in 11/04, following progressive American politics in the spirit of Howard Dean's effort to "Take Our Country Back." I decided to follow my heart and posted on seattleforbarackobama from 2/07 to 11/08.--"Howie Martin is the Abe Linkin' of progressive Seattle."--Michael Hood.

''4 in 5 Americans Want a Windfall Profits Tax on Big Oil''
"A new national poll shows that 9 in 10 Americans think the oil companies are engaging in price gouging (they are correct) and four out of five Americans (including 76 percent of Republicans) would support "a tax on the windfall profits of oil companies." Sen. Byron Dorgan (D-ND) and Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) are both pushing legislation to create a windfall profits tax on Big Oil. Sign the online petition that is urging other Members of Congress to support that legislation."-from Sirotablog.
