CLINTON VERSUS OBAMA ON A BREAK FOR GASOLINE PRICES

POSTED RESPONSE TO A COLUMN IN TORONTO'S GLOBE AND MAIL

Clinton is pandering to all those pick-up truck drivers with shotgun racks in the rear window and plastic Jesus on the dashboard.

She is a shameful piece of work.

These fuel prices are going to bring a revolution to our economies: The downsizing of the vehicle fleet, the beginning of the end of urban sprawl out into the cornfields.

These are good things, long-term, and far greener in their implications than silly demonstration projects for non-conventional energy.

On this issue alone, you can see the clear superiority of Obama, both in thought and ethics.
