- In a surprise move yesterday, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton called for "most of the country" to return to a speed limit of 55 mph in an effort to slash fuel consumption...
"The 55-mile speed limit really does lower gas usage.
And wherever it can be required, and the people will accept it, we ought to do it," Clinton said at the National Press Club.

Oh, that will go over well in the West and South. I'm sure no one will remind people of the Carter years with this idea of hers.

She can whip out several studies that prove her statemant while others can produce just as many that show she's wrong.
If I wasn't against it before, I sure would be now thanks to her.

Like Carter, she also lusts after women in her heart.

"The 55-mile speed limit really does lower gas usage. So does walking every place you go.
Set an example Hillery. Take a long walk....

And we can bet they go a lot faster than 55 when directed to do so by Her Majesty.
To: george76
INSANITY!
Who is advising this woman?
It really makes no sense, most of her comments lately make no sense.
Next, she should outright *iss off the gun owners and make the circle complete.

you are BAD.
I sure miss West Texas, sometimes I dream of those summer days in Chillicothe or Vernon at my grandparents, the street so hot you couldn't even walk to the swimming pool.
To: cardinal4
Hello,
One of my earliest memories is driving with my Grandfather in his car, one that would sound a loud buzzer when he went over 55 MPH. He hated that car (I don't think he kept it long). He would yell at the top of his lungs to SHUT UP!
Glad to be here, MOgirl
