bush says we all should do what we can to conserve energy
Someone check my math please but per a google check, AIR FORCE ONE has a maximum fuel capacity of 53,611 gallons and has a maximum range of 7,800 miles. Divide the miles by the gallons and the result is .145 miles per gallon so bush can go have his picture taken with a black person in Mississippi proving his compassion.

When I was in the Navy, Leadership by example was the best kind. I'm pissed cause I'm only getting 27 MPG.

Please conservatives chime in and tell me how me and my liberal mind are wrong.

2. And he flies all over the nation
for fund raisers and all over the world for what amounts to photo ops. It's apparent that he doesn't care about diplomacy.
