OMG! My BS Filter Just Redlined!
Hoo Boy! Another pander surrogate just weighed in.
Let me first promise -- If Billary manages to steal this nomination (An outcome which seems increasingly unlikely as the uncommitted delegate count dwindles and the inexorable mathematics takes hold) I will not vote for her under any circumstances. I will not vote for the vile past which has brought this great country to such a sad pass.
As to the panderer's "gas tax vacation" -- In the first place, it is DOA because, fortunately, rational people are still in control of Congress and so this particular piece of BS will simply not happen, ol' shot and a beer Hillary's finger-to-the-wind politics notwithstanding. In the second place, we don't need to be removing 10 billion dollars from the highway trust fund at this point because we need that money to keep more bridges from falling down (as happened in Minnesota last year, if you recall).
In 3 weeks, just after Memorial Day, I will make a 2,500 mile trip from Youngstown, OH to San Francisco, CA. I just did a calculation on what my maximum fuel savings might be given an 18 cent reduction per gallon times 83 gallons on my 30MPG 2002 Ford Focus. Here it is. Wait for it! A grand total of $14.94 on an estimated total cost of $332 (based on a likely average of 4 bucks per gallon). That would be a gigantic savings of 4.5%! Woo Hoo! This is assuming that the oil companies wouldn’t raise their prices pretty much immediately to grab that measly 18 cent sliver back for themselves, which they would undoubtedly do.
What a goddam insult to a working man’s intelligence! I may not be a lawyer, but I know my grade school math and I know how to use it to determine when someone’s trying to hoodwink me.
My god! Anyone with half a brain should be able to see through the absurdity and phoniness of such a political ploy! Now comes this little twerp Frost with his 11th hour sh*t-spewing spectacle in the face of overwhelming and rationally based objections to this latest Clintonian farce.
Ol' loose crotch Bubba and his co-dependent need to move on back to Arkansas to a nice trailer park, retire, and rail against the elitists who are all in favor of evolution and science and other dastardly signs of rationality.
I am hopeful that, come the convention in Denver, it will be officially “Adios Clintonistas.”
GO OBAMA! OBAMA’S MY MAN! He is going to be our next president because he’s the only one of the three remaining contestants who is truly qualified for the job. He’s got the smarts, he’s got the character and he’s got the vision to tackle the immense problems that immediately face this great nation, greatest of all nations.
