Yes, fresh from bringing peace to Northern Ireland and dodging snipers in Bosnia, Hillary Clinton is planning an amazing feat – she’s going to make the US energy independent, switch to renewables, and make energy prices cheaper for working class Americans.
“I told you I wanted to have a conversation so I asked you to send me your questions and concerns,” she tells us in her latest ad, before reading a letter from Tammy Bright of Cherryville, North Carolina. Tammie makes truck parts for a living and is a Republican (seemingly).
“We in NC are feeling the crunch of rising gas prices,” writes Tammie. “It’s harder for working families even to afford to drive to work. What are your plans on reducing the rising price of gas?”
“Well Tammie, I hear this everywhere,” replies the Senator. “People like you, and everyone else, are paying way too much at the pump. We need to reach energy independence and the only way we’ll do that is to stop buying oil from over there and start creating alternative renewable energy over here.”
Thank god for Hillary. And for the fact that she’s somehow still going to be President, despite losing the primaries. Or something. Next up, at NCAskMe.com, you can have your cake, and eat it too.
