According to Washington Whispers, which is featured in U.S. News & World Report, the president declared today's 41st annual Earth Day proof of America's ecological and conservation spirit.
Then he completed a three-day campaign-style trip which logged 10,666 miles on Air Force One, burned up about 53,300 gallons of fuel at a cost of about $180,000, which doesn't even include the fuel consumed by his helicopter, limo, or the 29 other vehicles that travel with that car.
Now, I really don't care how much presidential travel costs, after all the guy's the "leader" of the free world so he has places to go, people to see and so on. But, at the same time, I don't want to be hustled into believing that because I don't want to drive some foreign tin can that gets 200 miles to the gallon, but can't survive a crash with a bike, I'm some kind of subversive.
Furthermore, if we all actually do go out and buy some environmentally friendly pieces of junk that use almost no gas because they have almost no engines, what will happen to the president's pal Soros? Because after all they've done to practically guarantee that Soros' investments in oil rich Brazil pan out, what would happen to both of them financially in the future if nobody needed much gas?
That's it for today folks.
Adios
