Told you, and you laughed... snerk Sometimes it pays to look at the
world with an open mind...


Maybe if all of the whiny-ass neo-cons would quit badmouthing the car,
people would buy it. Maybe you WANT to continue supporting Arab Oil.

You said the Volt was dead, obviously, you are entirely wrong again. A
five week suspension in production is hardly a death.


Truer words have never been spoken.

Why would we stop bad mouthing a car that is a useless pile of junk? I
have already proved that you can buy a car for $10,000 new and drive it
for hundreds of thousands of miles before you reach the acquisition cost
of a Volt.

I don't want to support Arab Oil, I want to support US Oil. Drill here,
drill now.

We will see if they restart production. They have dealers who refuse to
order Volt's and who refuse to have Volts pushed onto them. There must
be a reason that the Chevy's own dealers don't want the cars on their
lots.

Oil is a finite resource. Let alone old technology.

Oil is a new technology. It is only about 170 years old.

Now that's the typical Republican response to technology!

And NONE of those are peer reviewed studies, so it's just hearsay and
speculation, right?

I never said they were peer reviewed studies. You wanted cites to
support my argument that Chevy dealers did not want Volt's on their lots
because they were hard to sell.

Why? Apparently we already have too much, since oil companies are
exporting American oil to foreign companies in record quantities.

http://www.americanprogress.org/issu...l_exports.html

The we have achieved our goal of stopping our dependence on foreign oil.
You lefties should be dancing in the streets.

And the Canadians want to share a pipeline to the gulf with American
companies to ship EVERYBODY'S oil overseas, too.


Ship the oil or gasoline over seas?

Drill, drill, drill? Hell no, if it isn't staying HERE (and it isn't).


Drill, drill, drill, sell, sell, sell, as long as they are buying the
oil from us I don't care what they do with it.

What's the point of selling this country's natural resources overseas? I
hope your answer isn't "making money."

Because it's not strategic in the long run. The energy situation has
to be viewed as a global chess game. He who finishes with the last
oil wins.
