On the campaign trail in Newton, Iowa, yesterday, Mrs. Clinton promoted ethanol-based fuels and proposed spending $2 billion on the emerging cellulosic ethanol research and extending tax credits for ethanol and biodiesel production through 2015. But that, too, provided another outlet for skirmishing between the Clinton and Obama campaigns, with the latter accusing Mrs. Clinton of voting against tax incentives for ethanol in the past.

The issue has particular resonance in Iowa, home to the nation’s first nominating contest.

Nothing to spin Kenneth. You are the one that was trying to state that Congress had no part in it...you are the one that tries to spin everything. I simply point out that you are wrong and you always avoid the question, why do you lie so much?

It is a serious question.

It takes a village to tip a single mom

David Greene of NPR reports that Hillary and her entourage swept into an Iowa diner, had a meal on the house, spoke to her waitress who reported she had to work two jobs to support her family then left without leaving her a tip and (without permission to do so) used that woman's story in a campaign speech.

"I wished I would have been asked first," the waitress, Anita Esterday, said of Clinton's decision to insert her in a speech. "I wish she would have asked if she could talk about me later. I didn't like it when someone called me up and said Hillary Clinton is talking about you. It's like, what'd I do now? What's she saying?"

When I returned to the Maid-Rite a few weeks later, Esterday said the senator had caught her off guard. But once they got talking, she was honest with Clinton about her need to work two to three jobs.

"I've been doing it all my life. Why should it change now that I'm old," Esterday said.

Esterday does not think Clinton got it. "I don't think she understood at all what I was saying," Esterday said. "I mean, nobody got left a tip that day."
It's not the first time the champion of working women has stiffed a waitress after scarfing down a freebie meal.

Typical of the left...do as I say, not as I do. Talk about being disconnected. :)
