I agree, those mean horrible republicans. Campaigning is so grueling and like any other run of the mill, average, everyday working class stiff Obama has the right to take a little vacation to Hawaii with a bunch of his common everyday run of the mill working class pals. To point out that Hawaii has the highest average gas prices is just a repugnant attack on a common everyday man and it is wrong.

I bet the GOP doesn't realize that Obama is actually going to give a lecture and demonstration in Waikiki about tire pressure and how under inflated Hawaiians are driving up their cost of fuel by 2%. I mean really by pumping up to 35 psi they could enjoy a potential savings of $1.34 per 15 gallon fill up.

THAT MY FRIENDS IS A REAL ENERGY POLICY!

Think just how many ways you can spend that $1.34 to better your life.

You could buy a double cheeseburger off the dollar menu at McDonalds once a week and put the after tax change of 28 cents into a high yeild money market.

You could save it up for 13 weeks and get a coupon from Pizza hut and treat the family to a large single topping hand tossed pizza.

Or of course you could embrace your faith and drop it in the collection plate at their friendly neighborhood, Hate Whitey church and the pastor can pay a tiny portion of an hour of jacked up minimum wage for his gardener.
