The great thing about having a Democrat administration is that there is never any bad news.

Jerry Wilson observes:

I’ve noticed my commute on BART has become substantially more crowded the past few weeks. Somehow I doubt it’s due to a sudden surge in employment. Might it stem from the ever-increasing gasoline prices? You know… the ones that when it happened during the Bush administration made for screaming headlines yet now warrant barely a whisper? Funny how that works.

Yeah, funny.  Like it's not really a problem now that we are in the era of "Hope and Change."
