The great tyre pressure war of 2008: A catch-up guide

So basically Barack Obama suggested that a good way to save energy would be if Americans kept the tyres of their cars at the correct pressure which is essentially true but Rush Limbaugh thought it was ridiculous and the McCain campaign mocked Obama by offering free tyre gauges in return for campaign donations so Obama accused the Republicans of taking pride in being ignorant but then McCain said actually he agreed with Obama's idea so then today Obama mocked McCain for disagreeing with his own campaign, saying "In the coming days it's going to be interesting to watch this debate between John McCain and John McCain," and anyway it turns out that McCain advocated similar small-but-effective measures in the past so really both sides agree with each other but that's not an acceptable state of affairs in political campaigning so now the McCain campaign won't be able to admit that Paris Hilton Paris Hilton Paris Hilton.
