- 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.

Off a very short pier.
They go faster than 55 when Her Majesty directs them to blow through security gates injuring the guard...
Hillary is an idiot.
Yep, when she is on her way to the airport. Speaking of which, does anyone remember when Hillary held an AA flight on the ground for 40 mins while she was giving a speech? Boarded up and fueled, the frigging thing sat on the gate waiting for her heinous to arrive. When she got there, she blamed it on the TSA..
She's too perfect! Let this woman win the Democratic nomination in 2008!
Wow. Hillary figures out perhaps the one thing that would force me to vote for McCain..
When I was commuting from Newhall to Santa Monica, via the Sepulveda Impasse, I couldn't either....but I'd have loved to have gotten up there once in awhile.
Her jet goes more than 55 mph.
I wonder how many gallons of fuel she burns in the jet per mile ?
Or pounds of jet fuel per hour ?
There I feel better now..
'Cause there's too much traffic
I can't pass...
One foot on the brake and one on the gas!
Well, there's too much traffic, I can't pass!
So I tried my best illegal move
A big black and white come and crushed my groove!
Go on & write me up for 125
Post my face, wanted dead or alive
Take my license n' all that jive
I can't drive 55!
So I signed my name on number 24!
Yeah the judge said, "Boy, just one more
I'm gonna throw your @zz in the city joint"
Looked me in the eye, said, "You get my point?"
I said "Yeah!, Oh yea!"
Write me up for 125
Post my face, wanted dead or alive
Take my license, all that jive
I can't drive 55!
When I drive that slow, you know it's hard to steer.
And I can't get my car out of second gear.
What used to take two hours now takes all day.
Huh - It took me 16 hours to get to L.A.!
Go on & write me up for 125
Post my face, wanted dead or alive
Take my license n' all that jive
I can't drive 55!
She should stick with it.
It's pointless, Hillary, to bring this outmoded debate to the table once again. It ain't gonna win her any political points with anybody except amongst the loony left fringe.
Just think of all the revenue we'll get from speeding tickets! </sarcasm off>
Hitlery wants 55, I want 110. Let's split the difference and add 10. 92.5 mph is fast enough for me on most roads.
She forgot the part about lowering the thermostat also
I thought of the Carter years also. Wasn't it Carter that implemented conservation plans like the 55 mph speed limit and the the paper conservation plan to "use both sides of the paper when you wipe" plan.
Well I have part of the song down.. lol
"Gonna write me up for driving the speed I should.
Take things way for the "common good"
Hillary Clinton, she's gonna connive
But I can't drive 55! Oh No!"
