Really Mitt, Really...

            With the Presidential election in full swing things are going to get interesting. Numbers are going to be twisted and turned, dogs will be eaten, and transported around the country on top of cars, and the 99% and Tea Party will clash at Starbucks.

            As I woke up this morning I was faced with the most hypocritical dude in the world. The Harvard MBA Graduate said that he was responsible for the return of the American Auto Industry.

Really, Mitt, and you also killed Osama Bin Laden. You jumped out the helicopter and placed the perfect shot to the head, which eliminated the bogie monster.

            Mitt, the American people have done more to repair the American Auto Industry then we get credit for. I see more American made automobiles on the road than ever before. I personally bought a new American made car, I have also bought American made aftermarket parts. These are all ways that I have personally played a role in the America Auto industry.

            The engineers, the workers, and the general public have an understanding of why it is important to buy an American car. Even Obama has played a role by increase gas mileage, therefore making them more competitive with foreign cars. Ford has plans to release their new generation of Mustangs on a global scale.

            This is the problem with a guy that when to Harvard and has a MBA, you are too smart for your own britches and believe that others not in your Alum have no clue. That is not the case.

            Did you forget there is a thing called the internet, and that your statements are cataloged and ready to be used against you before your complete your sentence?

 Mitt let me keep it real with you, shut the fuck up. Every time you talk, you do nothing but shove your foot down your mouth even further.

 Soon you will be on display at the wax museum for being the most flip-flop candidate ever. You standing next to a Cadillac with a pair of green flip-flops, I will commission it myself.

            And the sad part is there are a bunch of people that are standing behind you and supporting you. It is not because of your values, or your connection with the public. Obama is not even connected to the people, with his million dollar book deals, and plush childhood in Hawaii.  But rather the conservative party has one goal to overthrow the black guy, who is not really black at all.

            Mitt you said that we “should let Detroit go bankrupt”.  Let us read that slowly. LET DETROIT GO BANKRUPT. The conservatives can spin it anyway that they want to, but the fact remains that Obamas plan worked.

            President Bush was the one that allowed the first bailout, but I guess your forget that most of these bailouts were started by Bush and then they had to be continued by Obama. No matter what the plan worked.

            So Mitt please do us all a little favor. Tell us how you are going to do to fix our current problems. “Looking backwards won’t solve the problems of today” straight from your mouth. So why do we teach history in our schools? I would have to disagree. History teaches us that we can overcome obstacles such as civil rights, interracial marriage, and even has allowed women to have a greater voice in society.

            This is the issue with some conservative, they would rather have us go back to the days of slaves picking cotton, and women at home taking care of children.  

            Tell us your bold vision for the future. Is it to fire all of those in Government that are doing nothing? Is it to give an education bailout, to those that have worked hard for their degrees? Is it to stop fighting a war that sole purpose is to expand the empire?

            Come with a plan and take a history class, because you will learn the deregulation is the reason that we are here. Oh yeah and how is that elevator working for you?

Dude, Not My Car!!

The government has always tried to stick their hands in all of our pockets. But I have a problem when they start to tell me what type of car I can drive and what I can do with it. There needs to be a line drawn where we the people actually get to enjoy some freedoms. I love my muscle cars; they are a part of Americana. There is nothing like feeling horsepower and imaging the many after-market parts that I can add to my car.

The rumble, the looks, the ladies, and the smile on my children’s faces are all a part of that wonderful Sunday drive. But once again, big brother wants to eliminate the Sunday drive and force me to purchase a minivan. If a person can afford the insurance, the gas, and is willing to pay the gas guzzler tax, then they should be able to enjoy all of the horsepower they want.

I understand the concern, and yes we may be running out of oil and it might be in my lifetime. But there are other logical decisions that can be made in order to conserve some of our oil resources. We need to turn our attention to other issues rather than put more pressure on the citizens. There is a lot at stake if the government continues to try and regulate the muscle car industry.

There will be many small and large companies that will have to close up shop and fire their employees. There will be fewer shipments of products and fewer services needed as far as installation of new pipes and body kits. We are turning into a country with a longer list of what you can not do compared to what we can do.

I mean, really the only thing that is American to me they want to try to take away. I am not a big fan of baseball, or apple pie- I prefer pumpkin pie- it taste a lot better… especially if made by my grandmother. The one thing that defines America to me is the muscle car, not a Honda with a 4cylinder, a good ole Mustang 5.0 rumbling at the stop light. The sound of the exhaust and the feeling of taking off when the light turn green; there is nothing like it.

November is right around the corner and there is a real need for all of us to be informed and make sure that we vote to keep our freedoms. We can not continue to vote by party lines because as we have seen in recent months and the past 10 years I do not think that any of these people can get their act together and make a difference. The backroom deals continue, the lies are told with a straight face, and lives are still lost for something that we can not identify.

This is not some made up story, this is a real issue. If you have a sports car or just enjoy being surprised at what part of history might be rumbling down the street, make sure you help us car lovers out and get involved in the fight for our rights to drive muscle cars. If you want to see our country lose 32 Billion dollars a year, and more of our history in the junkyard then pay no attention at all. But if you do care, then feel free to sign up with SEMA Action Network or (SAN) www.semasan.com. Oh yeah this is for you bike lovers too- they have grouped us all in one category.
