Obama never said that inflating your tires will solve the energy crisis. What he said is, and you can look up the video, if everybody inflates his tires properly, 3-4 % can be saved. This is a good piece of advice. Nascar is handing it out, republicans like Schwarzenegger are handing it out, even the US gov has already instructed it's people to inflate their tires. But when Obama does it, of course the advice suddenly is retarded. Just as retarded as the people who heard it a dozen times and still do not inflate their tires.

I have no idea what Germans are doing and if you're there you have no idea what we're doing. This was a bigger deal in the 70's but there are significant improvements in tires these days, they hold their air better.
And I saw what BHO had to say. I'll trust my own eyes and ears.
Again, good tip as is changing your oil regularly, but only a tip, not a substitute for the many benefits of increasing domestic production of oil which will force prices down and reduce dependance on foreign product.
