I’m thinking about a trade-in, but not of trading in a car, I hope all Americans share my sentiments.....’nuff said.

[rightwingextremist1776]

Can’t WAIT to trade HIM in.....

[chickadee]

Wow. Reading this makes one want to weep. Buy more fuel efficient cars? So many people are wondering where they will get the money to drive to work so they can feed themselves and their family. This admin is polluted with Marie Antoinettes.

""Somehow, we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe," Mr. Chu was quoted as promising. By the way, Mr. Chu's goal would equate to $7-$8 per gallon. "

God Damn them to hell forever.

It is beyond me why the Republican Party is not broadcasting these quotes from one end of the country to the other. The election would be over right now. Seriously, what else do they need?

Wouldn’t it be awesome if we all put one of those stickies on the pump every time we got gas?

Fire up the sticker printing presses! You've just created a National Campaign!

“This admin is polluted with Marie Antoinettes.”

The solution to that problem worked quite well, IIRC.

"If you're complaining about the price of gas and you're only getting 8 miles a gallon, you know — you might want to think about a trade-in."

"Let them eat cake."

Steven Chu: “I didn’t really mean that. I just lost my head!”

[Maverick68]

bump for disbelief!

At best Chu is an idiotically provincial urbanite, who assumes that what would be good in the cities he has lived in — shifting from private automobile use to mass-transit — would be good for the whole country.

At worst, Chu actually has a hatred for those who farm, mine, or for any other reason live in rural America, where high fuel prices are an unmitigated disaster.

Either way, he seems oblivious to the wisdom once express by William Jenning Bryan,
“Burn down your cities and leave our farms, and your cities will spring up again as if by magic; but destroy our farms and the grass will grow in the streets of every city in the country.”

The sticky-notes are showing up on supermarket shelves as well as gas pumps. This could really catch on.

High gas prices will further kick the economy in the groin and end all hope for Obama’s reelection. How they don’t see this is baffling.
