Obama Supporters for $10 Gas!
August 7, 2008Amanda Carpenter reports:
There, AFP members handed MoveOn supporters a mock $8 bill and said “this is what Al Gore wants you to pay for gas.”
An older man dressed in an Obama shirt said, “This is too cheap! This is too cheap!” Waving the eight dollar bill he said, “Let’s get it up to ten! Let’s get it up to ten bucks.”
Frank asked the man, “How do you think that will affect the single mom who needs to fill up her minivan?”
The Obama-supporter replied, “A single mom probably doesn’t need a minivan.”
Another man, wearing an Obama pin, told Frank, “I’m hoping we have less supply and more demand, absolutely” because “then people won’t be able to afford it.”
Great job Americans for Prosperity
[...] Among the Republicans MoveOn has targeted is Rep. Mike Conaway of the 11th District of Texas. The only problem with this is that Conaway represents a district where the oil industry is a major contributor to the economy of the region. This is also a highly Republican, and highly conservative area where it is predicted that Conaway will win reelection without any problem at all. In fact, the Politico reports that four of the six GOP leaders that have been targeted by MoveOn have no threatening challengers this election, and will most likely keep their seats. This doesn’t seem like the wisest of moves by MoveOn, but then again you are talking about an organization that has members who support $10/gallon gasoline at the pumps (If you don’t believe me you can check it for yourself) [...]
