What is wrong with the media??

It's just another small example of the elitism that's plaguing this country. It's like all the talk of raising the gas tax to increase the total price back to $4 per gallon to "encourage" us to buy hybrids. Because, after all, all of us great unwashed are too stupid to make that decision for ourselves. If we continue to purchase our SUV's and musclecars, it's because we just don't understand that we're destroying the planet. Thank God we have intellectual powerhouses like this guy, as well as men like Al Gore and (cough) Neil Young, to set the rest of us morons straight.
