The Republicans continue their desperate smear campaign tactics against Obama. And once again they shoot themselves in the foot.
In TIME:
How out of touch is Barack Obama? He’s so out of touch that he suggested that if all Americans inflated their tires properly and took their cars for regular tune-ups, they could save as much oil as new offshore drilling would produce. Gleeful Republicans have made this their daily talking point; Rush Limbaugh is having a field day; and the Republican National Committee is sending tire gauges labeled “Barack Obama’s Energy Plan” to Washington reporters.
Too bad Obama’s point actually illustrates the total ineffectiveness of the Republican “Drill now, think later” mindset (underwritten by Exxon and friends)…
McCain’s “straight-talk” express gets derailed again and again.
For my part I am now permanently mad at the Republicans for their crimes against the earth.
