Since we can't pump our way out of our current oil problems isn't it a brilliant idea to inflate our way out

And don't forget we can always tax ourselves out of it.





Pro--that's ludicrous, most of us already do all that,,, it's common sense but have him stand up there and say it will bring gas prices down is what you should be laughing at.Since we can't pump our way out of our current oil problems isn't it a brilliant idea to inflate our way out
This is getting old, people. Now listen up.





I worked in the automotive industry for a number of years and have worked on my own cars since high school (a good while).





When Obama was talking about inflating tires and tuning up your car, he was referring to about 8-10 gas efficiency tips that have been known to be valid for over 60 years. Inflating tires and tuning your car correctly can actually result in a gas savings of 12-22%. I dare anyone to prove that if we open up drilling like what's been talked about, that it will result in enough oil to equate that level of consumption. As for inflating tires, tunes ups, etc. bringing the gas price down, it will and we already proved it. Gas price recently fell due to the bankruptcy(?) of a oil contracts company (thus redispersing the contracts) plus slumping gasoline demand in the second quarter.





I personally practice these methods and routinely use about 15-20% less gas than when I didn't. In fact, on most small to medium import cars, you can spend about $900 in parts and immediately get 20-25% higher mileage. A friend of mine did this on his Honda Civic; before the parts, he got roughly 32mpg, after the parts he got 42mpg (both are hwy ratings).





I've been laughing my butt off for days now listening to so many clowns mock Obama just because he said something they've never heard of and don't know. So funny how the misinformed make themselves SO obvious to the rest of us.Since we can't pump our way out of our current oil problems isn't it a brilliant idea to inflate our way out
Infllating the tires is just a tip, but no matter what Obama says, McCain will debase himself by mocking him.


He has no respect for himself or anyone else!


Here's a another tip to all the overweight people driving...


lose weight and you will get better gas mileage!
Yes. I agree. We should continue printing more bills and spending more of them. As a matter of fact, why stop at 100? Why not print a 100,000 dollar bill? Then we can be cool like Zimbabwe and carry 1 billion dollar bills around so we can afford some bread. I like the way you think...
Sounds like Osama bin Obama's ';CHANGE'; platform.
We are having a country wide strike on Wednesday because of this. I can just see chaos coming again.
yes we can drill our way out of it.
