"The Sierra Club or some environmental group"
Obama just referred to the Sierra club like that. Condescending enough?

WTF>! You must get on the horn with the League of Conservation Voters right away!
Surely, they'll want to roll back his rating, which happened to be the highest of all the candiates.

6. Here's the context as I recall it...
Obama was saying that he didn't propose raising fuel economy standards in front of "the Sierra Club or some environmental group, but rather in Detroit."

Which isn't the least bit condescending. But nice try.
