Obama says Clinton, McCain wrong on gas taxes - Yahoo! News
Topic: Current Events 1:43 pm EDT, May  2, 2008

"All I hear about is gas prices. Gas and diesel, everywhere," she said. "Some people say we don't need to get a gas tax holiday at all, it's a gimmick ... I want the Congress to stand up and vote. Are they for the oil companies, or are they for you?"

That's Hillary's quote. Now, here's a simple question, what the hell does being for or against the oil companies have to do with the gas tax? It seems to me, adding the hiatus in there is FOR the oil companies because the price goes down 10 cents, but it's going in the oil company pockets because the tax is higher.

And oh yeah, the money that is spent on the gas tax? That goes to things like bridges that aren't supposed to fall down, and roads that are supposed to be open, and potholes that are supposed to be filled. You'd be better off sending everyone a $20 bill. Oh wait, you did that with the "stimulus package."

I'm not sure which is worse, the chattering class or the pandering class.
