Captain Obvious on the scene

From the Department of Stating the Obvious, today's "no shit, Sherlock" headline: [U.S. Treasury Secretary] Snow sees danger in soaring oil prices.

I suppose the news isn't so much that there's a danger in rising oil prices (unless you happen to be, say, an oil tycoon), but rather that an executive in Bushco was a) informed enough to notice or b) candid enough to admit it.
