And on top of it, a short search shows that the credits were intro. by Bush.

"For those who say that the Volt is the work of government interfering with the private market via the tax incentives given to those who purchase plug-in vehicles like the Volt, they might wish to keep in mind that these incentives were introduced not by the Democratic administration but by the George W. Bush administration"

Paul, if you want both of us to dial it down, I'll do that. You were not asking a simple question, you were making a gotcha! comment, as your laughing-face icon shows.

My point about the Volt was (1) factually accurate in that Obama implemented that credit, as the car didn't exist before he was President, and (2) it shows the hypocrisy of Obama (and his supporters) for making the false claim that liberals are more interested in helping the poor than in helping the rich. Obama's Volt credit exactly supports my claim.

I will henceforth dial it down...

The laughing emicon was for Bob Lutz - the CEO or Chairman of GM. As conservative of a person as there is
