The mainstream US media has pitched in ´fear mongering´ economic experts who by linking ´higher demand to higher prices´ have hushed the viewers. But Sen. Obama was right to rebuff Hillary´s 10 billion dollar oil tax relief as ´fumes´ because despite ´fast tracking´ , the bill would not have made it through the legal process to provide relief at the pumps. It was political bluff played to attract voters for upcoming primaries, which only reflects Hillary´s disregard for economic challenges of average American and her understanding of inside working in Washington, which she calls experience.

The fuel tax holiday makes for great ad sound bites but has no chance of passing because responsible candidates who aren't running for President won't let it pass.
riving smarter, maintaining your vehicle and when the time comes replacing your vehicle with a more fuel efficient model will save consumers way more money than the McCain/Clinton proposal and it won't bankrupt the highway trust fund or put tens of thousands of road construction workers out of work.
