A first? Climategate enabled political shift in Australia – warmist replaced with sceptic « Watts Up With That?

The part about the elite still driving their Mercedes is true. The new mileage standards Obama signed into law has exemptions written in for automakers that sell less than 400,000 cars in the United States. Congress wrote this in so that they and all their fancy lawyers can continue buying big Mercedes and 7 series BMWs. While the masses will only be able to afford the smaller cars that get 35.5 mpg.
