Today, the House passed the Consumer Assistance to Recycle and Save Act (the Cash for Clunkers bill, H.R. 2751), which was introduced by Rep. Betty Sutton (D-OH). This program will bring meaningful reductions in vehicle fleet carbon emissions and fuel consumption, all while providing much-needed stimulus for our ailing automakers. Consumers may trade in their old, gas-guzzling vehicles and receive vouchers worth up to $4,500 to help pay for new, more fuel efficient cars and trucks. This measure will spur the sales of up to 1 million more fuel efficient cars and trucks -- creating jobs and shoring up car dealerships -- and save over 250 million gallons of gas.

Sutton: "please by the new cars, esp the ones with gps and/or assorted rfids built in. That way we can track you and tax you by the mile. It'll be even easier for us, your friendly govt, to fine you every time you go a wee bit too fast."

"I am tired of paying taxes to support stupid people like you and your ignorant ideas.
STOP DESTROYING GOOD WORKING VEHICLES WITH MY TAX MONEY!
Give them to welfare families that need them. Give the Jeeps and 4X4's to US Forest Service, Park Rangers and Border Patrol who need them. This program removes low price vehicles from those who need them; for purely evil purposes.

Not since the days of the Pharisees have puffed-up politicians like Betty Sutton acquired such power by saying they could control the weather better than the last guy. Wake Up, America! It's embarrassing.
