  1. 1) The Patiot Act is vital to national security, no matter how many times a certain political party plays the "they can see what books you took out of the library!" card. It breaks down the proverbial walls between agencies (FBI, CIA, NSA, DIA, SS, NGA, etc.) and allows them to talk to one another, share information. For example, the NSA is not allowed to "talk" to the FBI without the PA. Each agency has a different mission so we cannot cut down on the number of agencies. 2) 4.5 million jobs have been created in the past 2 1/2 years, more than in Japan and the EU combined.
  2. After the rediculous violence today in Syria and Palestinian terrorist comments along the lines of "the people who created and distributed it should be killed," I have a strange wanting to post the images on billboards across the country, perhaps even a commercial. Do you think there are any Super Bowl spots left?
  3. I saw that on the news a few months ago. Hilarious.
  4. Dart, obviously the Liberals up there in Canada needed some help. You are not going to turn into "USA Part II" with conservatives in a minority government. Stealing tax money, which you pay a lot of, or unfounded fears of rediculousness? Even though I am not Canadian, I am proud of what my northern neighbors accomplished. I support a political party because I honestly agree with most of what the party stands for. The events of September 11, 2001 turned me on to politics and really hardened my views.
  5. I am a Sag and I read my horoscope almost every day. I believe in them because I have found that they are usually true, for me, at least.
  6. Let the Christian bashing begin. The protests just prove to me what Islam is all about. Say something bad about Islam and the Muslims will threaten to kidnap and kill whoever said it. Do not believe in what they believe and they want you dead. It is what we are fighting against and many people fail to realize it.
  7. Southern accents are pretty hot.
  8. I see quite a few Mark LTs.

    "Fierce" by A&F "Touch" and "London" by Burberry "Pour Homme" by Givenchy "Crave" by CK "Happy" by Clinique "Aqua di Gio" by Armani ...and a few more of which I cannot recall the names. I am too lazy to get up and check, too. 'Tis good to have variety.
  10. I finally saw a red Lucerne (yesterday) and I must say my eyes were immediately drawn to it. It drove in front of me while I was waiting to cross the street so I saw it from the side and my head went from right to left. Then, I saw the back and realized what beautiful car I was looking at.
  11. The Tahoe helped lift TB sales. See what a great product can do?

    Sigh...
  13. BLS Wagon should do well in Europe.
  14. Fake breasts are horrible though there are good reasons why a woman should get them (like loosing them to breast cancer). If you have to, just make sure they fit your frame. Otherwise, you'll look better without them.
  15. If it can sell without incentives, good. Once interest in the car drops off then slightly increase incentives. I have only seen a tan one in person, I am hoping for more colors, preferably red or black.
  16. The huge 9-3 increase is weird as well. I do not have a problem with it, just where the hell have all the Saabers been?
  17. Ethanol is the way to go, at least until hydrogen is more refined. Brazil uses sugar to produce ethanol and is dependant upon itself for 90-some % of its fuel needs. The technology is there. It is inexpensive and proven. In 10 years, engines that can run on ethanol should be optional on all cars and within 20-25 years, they should be standard. If the government needs to give incentives to auto manufacturers to get it done, it should. Meanwhile, farmers will have the automatic incentive to start growing corn or sugar and the oil companies can use their record profits to convert their gas stations to ethanol stations. If not, they get left behind. Edit: Wikipedia says Brazil produces 40% of its fuel (14 billion liters) by using ethanol but I could have sworn I read somewhere that it was more than that.

    Does Pontiac need another FWD car? Does Pontiac need another coupe/2-door vehicle? Does Pontiac need a rebadged Cobalt? I am thinking of one word and one word only.
  19. Then, I am missing the point but I am not the only one missing points around here.
  20. Even though they will come a little bit later than what we thought, it is still a great thing. GMT900s are already amazing trucks and hybid versions will only up the ante.
  21. I HATE rediculously sized breasts.
  22. Damn, something about B&B and I cannot see the picture because of my stupid computer!
  23. Have the new EPA testing guidelines gone into effect so soon?
