But if an auto maker could make a car that will get that kind of gas mileage, they would have done it.

Yes, I'm 100% in agreement. We should get rid of the CAFE standards. The auto manufacturers are already producing very high mileage cars. The market is working and we don't need CAFE standards set by an assortment of idiots in Washington D.C., most of whom have never changed a spark plug. The problem is that many people do not want a small 4-Cylinder Cars that don't doesn't do well in a crash.

When Obama first came into office, he signed an "executive order" which said that the fleet average should be 35.5 mpg for passenger cars. Well if he could achieve this by an executive order, why stop at 35.5mpg? Why not 135.5 mpg? This is the way a buffoon like Obama thinks. He's cannot for the life of himself imagine why a 54.5 mpg car cannot be produced. I'm sure there are an assortment of technical idiots in his administration who are telling him that it's possible. And since Obama has never changed a tire or possibly put air into a tire, he's gone along. These are the types of idiots we have to deal with.

The Obama administration is the biggest assortment of fools, idiots and morons ever assembled in Washington.

And by the way the car makers will go along to get along. They are tired of auguring with the political types in Washington. Who can stand to argue with idiots.

Obama’s own car runs on hot air. It’s very plentiful everywhere he goes.
