Where's the outrage in America over its political leadership that threatens to undermine support for renewable energy in order to preserve oil interests?
If this bill is vetoed, what does that say about how seriously our administration views climate change?
Republican critics, and White House spokespeople, that complain about the bill raising taxes aren't bothering to clarify that it's oil companies that will be taxed. And they could use some taxation, thanks, to further kickstart a move to renewable energy ASAP.
It's a slap in the face to the rest of the world that America's CAFE standards haven't been raised since the 1970s, allowing U.S. autos to guzzle as much as they have.
