New Poll Shocker - $6 Gas is not desirable

Oregon Catalyst is reporting on a survery recently published by FreedomWorks Oregon that has many interesting tidbits, but one stuck out for me:

What it does mean is that they refuse to swallow the false choice presented to them by environmental extremists that the price of environmental responsibility is $6 gasoline. They believe in the ingenuity of Americans. They believe you can be environmentally-aware and have all the energy you need at an affordable price.

They also understand that for many Americans (the low income ones liberals claim to care about), $6 gas is simply not a sustainable condition.

But the Democrats have a different philosophy. Instead of leaving money in the family checkbook, they want to send it to Washington, run it through a slow and inefficient government, and hope that does some good. Wh...
