Hillary's gas tax holiday plan makes sense

In general I agree that gas should be expensive, so people will use less of it.

But gas is getting so expensive so fast that it's hurting a lot of people. Even without the tax, the price will encourage people to consume less of it.  

And note that Hillary would have the oil companies pay the tax.  This is a dramatic departure from McCain's proposal.  Hillary was the only one of the candidates to vote against the Bush/Cheney energy (windfall profits to the oil companies) bill. Obama is the candidate who has received the highest donations from oil company executives. This might explain why Obama, after voting three times for a gas tax holiday as an Illinois state official, is suddenly against it when gas is even higher.

The gas tax holiday proposal doesn't change the fact that Hillary's energy and environmental record and her plans for the future are worlds better than those of both her opponents.On Or how to prove you're even dumber than your opponents posted 1 year, 6 months ago 4 Responses

Obama voted for the Cheney energy bill!

Come on, folks, look a little closer!  Obama supported the oil company preservation act (Hillary voted against it) and he takes more money than any other candidate from oil company executives (while proclaiming that he doesn't take money from oil companies)!On Energy prices that tell the truth: the real presidential litmus test posted 1 year, 7 months ago 11 Responses
