"Why should my taxpayer dollars go to bailout someone's car warranty?"

Why should my tax dollars go to a faith-based initiative that I don't support?

We can play the WHY SHOULD game all day. Who wants to go next?

Because a Republican President screwed things up for the last 8 years and they don't want to admit where the blame lies.

What's that on my back?

Where is my wallet?

Why is the window open?



You can ask all day long, the answer is always going to be the same.

Let's stop all this talk about conspiracy. It reminds me of Martha Mitchell. I kind of miss that broad.

Speaking of conspiracy theories, I need to remember to add more national disasters to my gay agenda. I'm on vacation next week, but I'll pencil in a tsunami sometime in late April if everyone's available.

He will personally fix your car if need be.

Until the job losses stop, people will not buy cars no matter what the price.

The stock market did not react to the news very well. At some point, this will turn into his economy and he will no longer be able to blame GWB. It will be sooner rather than later.

The GM president was the latest sacrificial lamb. Who will be the next?

If you're going with a legal metaphor, you're the prosecution. Did you actually graduate high school or did you have to go work in the mines to take care of your family at 13 or something? Then again, you don't know how the economy works, you don't know how government works, why should you know a single thing about the law?

Yer a typicale Amurrican!

car-bu-re-tor
noun a device for mixing vaporized fuel with air to produce a combustible or explosive mixture, as for an internal-combustion engine.

If the American auto industry is still installing carburetors, maybe it's time for it to be put to rest.

Get ready for more Tata takeovers.
