oh no
During debate over the House of Representatives' energy conservation bill, North Carolina Republican Congressman Patrick McHenry ridiculed bicycling as a "19th century solution."
"Oh, I cannot make this stuff up. Yes, the American people have heard this. Their answer to our fuel crisis, the crisis at the pumps, is: Ride a bike.
Ladies and gentlemen, I bring you the Democrats, promoting 19th century solutions to 21st century problems. If you don't like it, ride a bike. If you don't like the price at the pumps, ride a bike.
Stay tuned for the next big idea for the Democrats: Improving energy efficiency by the horse and buggy."

I noted the caption below the picture of the race car:
"Congressman Patrick McHenry standing with an automobile, which, as it happens, was also invented in the 19th century."
heh...
It's as if the ineffectuality of something is directly proportionally related to it's date of inception.
