From: 'The Powers That Be':
NASCAR drivers, not unlike MSNBC hosts, get moving that fast by leaning forward:
NASCAR Chairman and CEO Brian France was a guest on MSNBC on Thursday to talk about the sport’s green initiatives in advance of Earth Day.
France was asked several questions about NASCAR’s environmental push by anchor Thomas Roberts, who apparently thinks race cars are actually fighter jets.
“The obvious draw for NASCAR is the speed,” Roberts said to France. “Cars going up to about 500 mph, right?”
And these are the people who are going to spend the next 200 days calling Romney out of touch?
France didn’t respond to the 500 mph claim, but I would have replied, “Yes, Thomas, and by going 500 miles per hour we get the race over a lot faster, thus sparing the environment unnecessary pollution. We’re Al Gore approved!”
Extra credit question for Thomas Roberts: Assuming the cars go 500 miles per hour, why does it take several hours to complete the Daytona 500'?
The irritating aspect of the entire story is these people actually make big money for being ignorant.
