For instance, I believe in personal responsibility, hate socialism, love God and recognize the general goodness of our country. My reluctance to embrace another PC view surfaced as I reviewed a new best/worst list of vehicles by the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy ACEEE. The selection criteria of this Washington, D.C., advisory group focuses on vehicular environmental impact as seen through the lens of global... Full article...
