I've added some new photos, from my Miami and wandering around Austin last night. There was an outdoor symphony concert, and then I went to go see the bats, and check out this really cool colorful fountain. It was one of those summer evenings that make me love this city.
So a few days ago Obama mentioned that people should make sure your tires are inflated as an effort to improve gas milage and reduce oil consumption. Something that everyone agrees does actually work and would save oil. And what do the Republican's do? Mock a suggestion that would immediately reduce demand by up to 7%. This was not by any means his entire plan as McCain would have people believe, but mearly a small part of a comprehensive long term energy policy.
When looking at this attack, and the misleading statements on off-shore drilling and how fast and how much oil it would provide (which is something that is a fact and not debatable), then what is essentially happening is that McCain is willing to promote ignorance to win an election. Actually, not just willing, he's counting on it. **sigh**
