Obama: gas tax holiday a highway to Shell

It is worth noting that the primary in NC and IN and ultimately the election hinge on a bet by two of the candidates that low information voters will believe their preposterous assertions that a "gas tax holiday" will help them pay their fuel bills this summer.
Anyone with a high school level education in economics will tell you a gas tax holiday will actually have the effect of raising gasoline prices. The consumer will simply never see a dime and the oil companies will make even higher profits. Not to mention the fact that it might put as many as 300.000 people out of work when the country is reeling from job losses or drive our debt even higher.

It is simply impossible to even suggest that such a measure could be introduced much less pass through congress before the end of the summer given nobody but McCain and Clinton support it in congress.

We are witnessing an epic and historic clash of old and new politics, one rooted in pander and deception of the past and one with the promise of truth and transparency.

My vote is for Senator Obama

This race is so unfair for Obama. When there a misquote of Clinton's supporter on youtube, it was removed.when his pastor was misquoted, it was never removed. I am a catholic and I disagree with many rules that the church of my birth upholds, Does this make me unfit for president. I used to back Clinton but she is so desperate that it sickens me

Hillary Clinton has to understand that cunningness is not wisdom. She stated to the public twice that she is a Methodist. (the Methodists are spiritually minded people who depend on the power of Yahweh unto salvation.) plus they work hard all over the world to bring people to that standard. The cultnews proclaimed on 15/09/2007 that it's official Hillary Clinton is a "New age Cultist" New age Cultist believe in salvation through works, she often boast about how hard she has worked in other words God has nothing to do with it. To fool God fearing people to get votes is the lowest thing any politician could do be it man or woman. Http//w3.cultnews.net, Joy Behar "the View". Jeanlynchfray@aol.com

Everyone has forgotten about Health Insurance and the war in iraq. the big news of the week has been about suspending the gas tax... for the summer . It's called HUSH money and designed to keep you quiet for at least for a couple of months.At first I was I was concerned that perhaps there were a lot of Hillary supporters blogging.... then I remembered Lush Rhimbaugh and his operation..... It seems to me that the Republicans are going out of their way to get Hillary nominated, because they believe she would be the BEST opponent against McCain. That would be great ..... getting to pick your own opponent. That's what they do in wrestling... isn't it ?

mr. obama is correct and he needs to keep it up.

Of course this is a a political ruse by Hillary. I am not sure how she or McCain could pass anything this year- W is still there isn't he? But aside from that this money from the federal tax pays for out road and bridge repair and for the jobs involved in those repairs. This is just another way of funneling tax payers money to the oil companies. Let's take a look at their price gauging and their unbelievable profits. Frankly I think that it is insulting that Clinton thinks that she can buy votes for thirty cents a day. During this campaign she has shown that she will be anyone and say anything to get elected. Even though I don't believe that she is really anti intellectual and pro gun her willingness to play this role is disgusting.
Plus I really want to know more about this Paul Vs. Clinton lawsuit that is all over the net.

If Hilliary Clinton is proposing what most ordinary American felt and need why are the Congress and the President wouldn't agree after all it's the peoples business they need to pay attention to not their self serving appetite.
