Yeah, buy more gas, great idea!
Wow, what a genius. At a time when we're spending hundreds of billions of dollars fighting a war, this guy supports an idea that he thinks will help people buy more mid-east oil... which supports the people we're fighting against.
Even if abolishing the gas tax would "work" (i.e. lower prices at the pump), it's a horrible idea. INCREASING the gas tax is a much better idea. Anything to get us to burn less gas. If Bush had cared at all about fighting terrorism he would have doubled CAFE standards and poured money into making cars more fuel efficient, instead of wasting it all in Iraq. What a tragedy this presidency has been, for us and the entire world.
