An audience member in a town hall meeting asked obama "what can I do to save energy?" and he said "inflate your tires". How is that not valid? He has talked extensively about his energy plan, and I know attack ads are common, but why is McCain attacking Obama out of complete ignorance and downright lies?
I think it's laughable that McCain criticizes an energy saving tip that the Bush Administration, NASCAR, and Arnold Schwarzenegger(a supporter of McCain) all have promoted.
Barack Obama is right when he says "inflate your tires to save energy." Tires have to be inflated properly in order to reduce the amount pressure you put on your gas peddle. The less pressure on the gas peddle, the more gas you save. It's pretty simple when you think about it. In fact here's another tip on saving gas and energy: when you go down a hill in your car, take your foot off the peddles and let the engine's RPMs go down. You should never ride your brakes because it wastes energy. With this energy crisis, this should be common knowledge.
And talk about ignorant. Speedbump sounds very ignorant. Good
job McCain supporter(s).
What? You supported what I said, then called ME ignorant? I don't get you.
