Somebody get MC a calculator--appears he's having tough time with pencil--

or maybe its calculators only compute #'s and not opinion--any other GW basher/Clinton advocates care to give him a hand. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

They remind of Maynard G Crebbs in the Dobie Gillis series-

If I hit you in your hybrid in my Tahoe, I win

I can't justify spending 10K more for a hybrid, that is a ton of gas at less than 2 bucks a gallon, I could careless about the environment aspect

plus I have a family and need a big SUV

Easier to run over gay people in an SUV eh?

My car was 18,800, with the regular Civic being about 3K less. I got an immediate 2K tax credit. I've saved thousands$ on gas over the last 5.5 years. ....So yeah it saved money.

But I'm not trying to talk you into anything. I just find it amazing how supposed conservatives revel in their wastefulness, which compromises our national security in so many ways. That's all.

wtf does this have to do with this thread? And why have not posted the latest numbers which are the highest in 14 years? What exactly is your point?

 

[kosar]

1992- 7.5%

2000- 4.0%

According to Waynes own numbers.

We're back to 7% or something now. 9% in my county.

Not sure what all this debate is about.

Look at those Carter and Reagan years. Yikes!

are you gay?kurby

 

[kosar]

are you gay?kurby

You're a little slow on the uptake on this, like everything else.

 

[Jabberwocky]

Im is gay and a true conservative. This is going to be a tough one for you hedge.

 

[ImFeklhr]

are you gay?kurby

Is that little smiley running away from me? or towards me?
