Too Little of a Good Thing

The Raw Story reports that Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert just couldn't wait to get back into his SUV after a photo op and short ride in a hydrogen car. After expressing their outrage at skyrocketing gas prices, Hastert and several congressional colleagues left the Washington DC gas station to return to the Hill, which was just blocks away. But instead of finishing the trip in the hydrogen car or, dare we say, walking the rest of the way, Hastert made a quick pit stop to hop into his SUV. The Associated Press, which caught the Speaker mid-switch, reported that he was not the only one to change vehicles, but did not name other names.
