Democratic leaders in the House of Representatives sent a message this week to hard-working commuters forced to pay historically high prices for gasoline:
"Ride a bike".
The message was buried on page 255 of a 290-page bill the Democratic leadership introduced at 9:45 p.m. on Monday night, forced through the Rules Committee at 10:00 p.m., and put up for a "debate" and final vote -- with no amendments allowed -- on Tuesday evening.
Section 827 of the bill defines the "Transportation Fringe Benefit to Bicycle Commuters."
It says: "The term 'qualified bicycle commuting reimbursement' means, with respect to any calendar year, any employer reimbursement during the 15-month period beginning with the first day of such calendar year for reasonable expenses incurred by the employee during such calendar year for the purchase of a bicycle and bicycle improvements, repair and storage, if such bicycle is regularly used for travel between the employee's residence and place of employment."
Bottom line: Employers could count as a deductible business expense a tax-free $20 monthly reimbursement to workers who bike to work.
Meanwhile, the bill, as explained to me by Republican congressional sources who combed through it in the hours before and after it passed, would effectively outlaw development of America's vast offshore oil resources.
...the rest of the story.
So one of you Democrats tell me, ...do these bikes come with snow tires?

Thousands of flags found in garbage after Democrat Convention:
Republican Recycling
by David Harsanyi
Denver Post Blog
September 6, 2008This morning, Republicans tell me that a worker at Invesco Field in Denver saved thousands of unused flags from the Democratic National Convention that were headed for the garbage. Guerrilla campaigning. They will use these flags at their own event today in Colorado Springs with John McCain and Sarah Palin.
Before McCain speaks today, veterans will haul these garbage bags filled with flags out onto the stage — with dramatic effect, no doubt — and tell the story.
“What you see in the picture I sent you is less than half of total flags,” a Republican official emailed. “We estimate the total number to be around 12,000 small flags and one full size 3×5 flag.”
I’m not sure what the DNC was supposed to do with unused hand-flags, frankly. But the Republicans are obviously questioning someone’s patriotism here.
There are more photos of flags being trashed at the Pepsi Center where the first days of the Dem convention were held indoors.
I’ve been to many, MANY GOP presidential campaign events over the years and never do I recall seeing a single American flag tossed into the trash after the event. And yes, since I was a key political officer at some of these events I did often stay until the event was over. The flags I have from the events with President Reagan are now treasured reminders of those golden days.
Apparently, Democrats see the flag only as a prop to be discarded when the event was over. Does the flag hold so little meaning for Democrats that they treat it as trash rather than reuse it?
Rescued Flags to Be Reused at McCain Palin Rally
The flags are on their way to a McCain Palin rally in Colorado Springs where the Boy Scouts and Veterans of Foreign Wars will distribute them to the GOP faithful.
Thanks to Flopping Aces for the tip....

UPDATE: The Obama "people" came up with a doozey of an excuse... according to an official campaign announcement, the flags in question were waved by 75,000 patriots at Mile High Stadium and then later the flags were "stolen" (by evil Republicans) from THE TRASH and so (goes the story) the Obama campaign was simply going to get them out of THE TRASH later.... and use them.... in a patriotic fashion of course.
That garbage doesn't even come close to passing the smell test. lol
