New campaign message:
I think I'm just tired of it all. I'm tired of "oh gosh, the gas prices are so horrible," and I'm tired of "these days I hate driving." Here's what I think: I think that every single American adult with an IQ of at least 60 knows that personal automobiles are selfish, excessive, and harmful to the environment. I think those same people know there are numerous options available to them besides single-occupancy vehicles. And I think it's time we stopped letting people act like helpful infants, and instead insist they start acting like responsible adults.
LEAVE YOUR GODDAMN CAR AT HOME. And before you whining automobile addicts start your typical avoid-the-topic blather ("but I don't know how to get to work, I don't know the bus routes, it's too far to ride a bike... blah blah blah"), here's a news flash: YOU'RE NOT A BABY ANYMORE, and it's not the world's job to change your diaper. Buck up and FIGURE IT OUT.
