Hard to argue with the math:

"Here's some math from your stories that the average clunker got 15 mpg and
the average replacement gets 25. ·

A vehicle at 15 mpg and 12,000 miles per year uses 800 gallons a year of
gasoline. ·

A vehicle at 25 mpg and 12,000 miles per year uses 480 gallons a year. ·

So, an average clunker transaction reduces U.S. gasoline consumption by 320
gallons per year. ·

The total is about 700,000 vehicles - so that's 224 million gallons / year.

well to breath on their own.

As opposed to the previous administration, a bunch of lying thieves, who
spent our treasure and blood like drunken sailors on shore leave.

That is a great example of 'Bush Rationale'.

Bush spent a lot of money, so it's OK for 'Bama to waste four times as
much.

You guys are something else.

"Waste" implys that bama can account for the money he so frivolously
throws around. Most of the bailout money just vaporized into thin air.
Does anyone know where all that automaker bailout money? Even more
difficult to trace is the financial industry bailout. I wonder if those
executives ever got their bonuses. The clunker program hasn't done so
well either. Mis management of the program has left the dealers holding
the empty bag. Hopefully they will eventually get paid.

Hate to tell you, but the first bank bailout happened during Bush's
administration. Are you going to blame the president for that too?

You skipped the main point. 'Bama is wasting money as fast as he can.

You missed the main point. It's been shown to have worked, and it's
continuing to help.

Why didn't bama learn from Bushes mistake and demand some accountability
instead of making the same mistake again?

Having trouble spelling? It's "O"bama. There's much more accountability in
the more recent bailouts.

... and the bank deregulation that allowed it happened on Clinton's
watch with virtually unanimous congressional support (4 nay votes in
the house, 2 D, 2 R, 100% support in the senate)
There is plenty of blame to go around.


I agree! But, there are some that only want to blame Obama or Bush. Instead
of blame, how about looking at the facts, what happened, and how to fix it?
Nahhh... too straightforward.
