just a real quick search of : Obama's jet trips vs pollution
The following 4 are just quick copy and past of a pretty good list.
OH, it's on the internet so it has to be the truth and factual.
Using a little thought and looking at some of the data "Out There" I would have to say what Dwight said is plausible.

This may not be Myth busters, but..... There is one thing I will say and back it up with a link: The EPA is on the wrong track with the ruling about converting cars to race cars and pollution.. Racing causes way less pollution than the aircraft industry.

All three are hard right wing sources and according to you with "plausible" information which is far from fact. And nobody knows how many tons of pollutants are released each year because of drag racing. This vacation dig is just another cheap shot by a guy who is sitting around waiting for his check each month.
