Sunday Morning Mashup of ABC'S THIS WEEK:
HILLARY CLINTON
May 4, 2008
Hillary Clinton responds to Obama's and economists' criticism of her gas tax holiday proposal.
"It's really odd to me that arguing to give relief to the vast majority of Americans creates this incredible push back. When the Federal government through the Fed and the Treasury gave 30 Billion Dollars in a bail out to Bear Stearns, I didn't hear anybody jump up and say, 'That's not going according to the market; that's rewarding irresponsible behavior.' We gotta get out of this mindset where, somehow, elite opinion is always on the side of doing things that really disadvantage the vast majority of Americans."

This is a composite of a series of images photographed from a mounted camera on the Earth-orbiting International Space Station, from approximately 240 miles above Earth. Space station hardware in the foreground includes the Mini-Research Module (MRM1, center) and a Russian Progress vehicle docked to the Pirs Docking Compartment (right). Expedition 31 Flight Engineer Don Pettit said of the photographic techniques used to achieve the images: "My star trail images are made by taking a time exposure of about 10 to 15 minutes. However, with modern digital cameras, 30 seconds is about the longest exposure possible, due to electronic detector noise effectively snowing out the image. To achieve the longer exposures I do what many amateur astronomers do. I take multiple 30-second exposures, then 'stack' them using imaging software, thus producing the longer exposure." A total of 47 images photographed by the astronaut-monitored stationary camera were combined to create this composite. Image Credit: NASA...
