I don't know why, but I always seem to be surprised by the pandering of politicians. I guess that makes me somewhat naive.
The latest bit of idiocy from two of the three candidates for the highest office in the land was a suggestion that federal gasoline taxes -- 18.4 cents a gallon -- be suspended from Memorial Day to Labor Day. To his credit, Barack Obama dismissed this as counter-productive gimmick. I don't have a horse in this race, but I am heartened to see at least one candidate is not clueless.
