as if i ever launch into a small rant. anyway, last chance to hit the back button before i get started.
seen on a toyota prius parked in a mental health medical complex: "My car $tarve$ terrorists. Does yours?"
i couldn't resist. i grabbed a piece of paper and a pen and this is what i wrote:

it amazes me just how much people can rationalize. your bumper sticker says your car starves terrorists. well, it also starves american people. the bulk of your money that you paid for your car goes to japan. if you had bought american, your money would have stayed here. doesn't anyone remember the pearl harbor? 3000+ americans lost their lives, about the same number that died on september 11, 2001. in 50 years are you going to drive an Afghani car? buy american and keep americans working. leave the terrorists to the military.

that's it. all the time i was hoping the driver would come out so we could have a face to face, but that didn't happen. and i guess the complaint is that there are no american electric cars. that's not true. not to mention the myriad of hybrids available... no one
HAS to send their money to japan or korea to get the car they want. we make them (for the time being) right here in america. land of the free, home of the brave.
and before you start in with the "x-car" is built here in the US, the bulk of the money still goes to "x-car"'s home country, where ever that is.
have a nice day.
oh, and buy american.
