Another idiotic idea

On the same day the front page of the NY Times tells us that the use of bio-fuels is causing worldwide starvation, McCain decides to give us a holiday from gas taxes:

PITTSBURGH - John McCain wants the federal government to free people from paying gasoline taxes this summer and ensure that college students can secure loans this fall, a pair of proposals aimed at stemming pain from the country's troubled economy.

Meanwhile a few more bridges will fall down because they weren't repaired on a timely basis, and a hundred thousand automobiles will be sent to the graveyard because they rattled themselves to death on the pot holes that gas tax revenues might have repaired.
