“President Obama leaves event promoting clean energy in a motorcade of 22 fossil-fueled vehicles:”
On January 26, 2012, President Obama visited a Las Vegas UPS plant. Stimulus subsidy for said UPS plant to purchase natural-gas-powered trucks: 5.6 million dollars. Stimulus subsidy for North Las Vegas green energy plant that laid off 200 workers yesterday: 5.9 million dollars. Using taxpayer dollars to leave an event promoting clean-energy vehicles in a motorcade of twenty-two fossil-fueled vehicles: Priceless.
It’s time to end all energy subsidizes, and let average Americans, like the President does, select the fuel they want, free of government interference.
For Obama, it’s just like a weekend jaunt at Martha’s Vineyard. Still though, they got out of the driveway at least; clearly the Oba-cade is making progress with its driver’s lessons. Recall this post from May of last year:
Obama needled one questioner who asked about gas prices, now averaging close to $3.70 a gallon nationwide, and suggested that the gentleman consider getting rid of his gas-guzzling vehicle.
“If you’re complaining about the price of gas and you’re only getting 8 miles a gallon, you know,” Obama said laughingly. “You might want to think about a trade-in.”
Self-awareness is only a virtue for raaaaacists in high office.
All you have to do is… Spot the Looney!
And BHO and his posse arrived at the Las Vegas UPS plant via … a fossil-fueled aircraft, right? Bet he also departed the region via … a fossil-fueled aircraft.
