Well. I think, the good 'ol fashist goverment we have now can come pry my big a** gas guzzling car from my hands when I am dead. It will be over my dead body I give up my rights to "choose" what car I drive, it's size, and the mpg it takes to push it along.. Who they think thier kidding.

Think the president is turning in his Limo for a Urkle-Car? Think Pelosi will start driving acrosss country in a Chevy Volt? Well until they do...Im keeping car.

The next thing this President will do is to design a new GM car which the average American can afford to buy. Of course, history repeats itself. National Socialism.

Hello Sedary:

I could not agree more. Here is some food for thought, and YES..I truly believe all this is tied in.. Let me know your thoughts.

Just Imagine..Could it possibly be that very soon you will not hear of the Global Warming--Which is currently why we need these small, unsafe, tiny cars, now. Could Global Warming be a scam and been created to serve its purpose for the time being and very soon this phrase will need or get a new name all to "SELL" to the people...that would be "us Americans and others globally".

What if it was possible to tweak the image of this worn out name and change it to maybe something that people desired or longed for ..Like A JOB? Perhaps, we could call it Renewable Energy, but maybe not that Is still not sellable..What about calling it Green Growth for Green Jobs. So could we so hear a new re-package name for Global Warming (which created most of this mess and money scam)

What about Renewable Energy by rephrasing it to Green Growth and then promise millions of jobs..Yes, that sounds awesome. I would buy into that. This may mean billions or trillions of new dollars for this NEW idea..which is only the same old global warming scam simply repackaged into a new politically correct name.

Now, even better..Or more scary rather...Could Population control be packaged into this as well somehow. Think about it….If CO2 gases are environmentally deplorable, then would "us" humans exhaling cause more environmental damage? Just last week cow farts were seen as enviromentally dangerous... Could people be convinced like by the thoughts of Arne Naess and deep ecologists that if there were less humans exhaling C02 gases that we might possibly just be able to "save the planet."?

And just think it's all starting by these itty bitty cars we might all be forced to buy-into.

Any thoughts?

Just another example of this President buying support. He is creating a voting base by adding so many new government jobs and with gimmicks like this he is trying to buy support for himself and the Democrats idea that everyone wants to buy a sardine can. Worst part is this is your grandchildrens money he is spending!!!

Hi Ricky..

I agree...I thought that maybe we could sell or auction off California to China for our debt, and then call it even.. Just think we would have no debt, and China would have a great deal with the added bonus of getting Fienstein, Pelosi, and the Governator--and so many more good quality folks!
