Hillary Clinton Endorses 55 MPH Speed Limit
US Senator Hillary Clinton (D-NY) on Tuesday endorsed a return to the 55 MPH maximum speed limit for “most” of the country during a speech at the National Press Club in Washington, DC. Senator Clinton, who is leading in the polls for the Democratic nomination for president in 2008, responded to a question about whether she supported the Carter administration’s national maximum speed limit.

Beside the point I know, but Sammy Hagar is a mediocre front man. No Diamond Dave to be sure.
“”The 55 mile speed limit really does lower gas usage, and wherever it can be required and that people will accept it, we ought to do it,” Clinton said.”
That’s the reasoning you come up with???
There is any doubt that this is about control?
Brings back wonderful memories from the wonderful 1970’s, like getting a ticket for going 58 on a wide open Interstate, which the week before had a 70 mph speed limit. Speed traps are another tax on honest citizens who have places to go and things to do.
Wonder how fast Bill will be driving once Lewinsky’s book comes out.
If they were really concerned about humans, they would ditch the new CAFE standards.
What an idiot …
