It's not the profit that I was really posting about.. it was the last phrase in the article that I was highlighting (emphasis mine). I applaud their profit-making, but the "I'll feel better if I eat an Obama cookie" sentiment borders on the edge of frightening.

"Suddenly, sales of 400 cookies in a good week soared to more than 1,000 a week, with requests coming from as far away as Mexico. Alas, the price is going up, from 50 cents to 75 cents a cookie to make up for the time it takes to make more each day."

What!?!? They jacked up the price because there was more of a demand for a product? And by 50%??? That's PRICE GOUGING!!! Obama-induced price gouging, no less. Remember when Obama was concerned about how quickly gas prices went up. But not even evil ExxonMobil would dare raise their price by 50% in so short a time. Will Obama stand up to this cafe who jacked up their price so quickly and by so much? Shouldn't Schmuck Schumer be organizing a Stalinist "windfall profit" show trial right about now?

Hey, as long as they make a profit, who cares? It's the American way, don't you know?
