Obamer! Woohoo!!! The first inspirational leader of my lifetime.
The Prius may be a remarkable little car but it is worse on the environment than our Rovers. From the mining of the nickel for the batteries, the fact that if not driven exactly right it gets no better mileage than a normal car and the disposal of the batteries at the end of the car's life it impacts the environment more than our gas hogs. Saw that on Top Gear and it makes sense.

If the government is going to try and entice me to get away from my gas hogs they're going to have to do better than $3500 to $4500. I want the full cost of replacing my Rover with a LR3 and my Dodge with a new Dodge with the bluetec diesel. The government is handing out money hand over fist to the banks and auto makers, it's time the general public gets some of their money. Last time I checked every dime the government spends comes from the ax payers so why shouldn't we get some of it back.

Tact is the knack of making a point without making an enemy.

rrhyne, sloppyjoe, I understand you guys are very upset that proposition 8 has disrupted your plans for happiness. I promise I had nothing to do with this. I am not a registered California voter and I am not a member of the Mormon church.

Calm down, you're making conservatives look bad.
In fact, your posts have completly gone against what the definition of a conservative is.


Personally, I think we have had way to many off topic posts in the Disco section. The most off topic I want to see is an LR video link. I dont come on here to read political arguments. (I myself have posted some political replies, but from here on out, I not posting anymore. I think more of you should follow.) Lets leave this stuff for the off topic section.

That is awesome, I wonder if Dan Savage and Perez Hilton are members because that would be totally sweet!
