Auto Industry Has Learned Well From Tobacco Industry

Little bird, what thee hell are
you trying to tell me???

President Bush has nominated a new Energy Secretary — a man after his own heart and soul. The so-called "plan" is to make the United States less dependent on energy from unstable parts of the world. The plan is boost domestic production by drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, weakening clean air laws, and increasing the use of nuclear and coal resources. There has not been ONE WORD about CONSERVATION because the President and Congress are afraid of angering the auto manufacturers, power companies, and other organization who thrive on making the world a dirtier place. Worse yet, there is NO TALK on how to curb our emissions to stop Global Warming. The theme in Washington continues to be "live for now — don't worry about tomorrow."

Hurray for California who is standing up to the Righteous politicians and Earth-destroying industries by introducing some tough new emissions laws. But rather than calling on their engineers to rise to the challenge, the pathetic U.S. auto industry has let their monkey lawyers out of the cage and sent them to Sacramento. The monkey lawyers are digging through law books to find any angle they can to justify their gas-guzzling and polluting automobiles. Right now, their latest angle is something to the effect that states are not allowed to mandate miles-per-gallon — only the federal government can do that.


The Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers is a trade association of nine car and light truck manufacturers including BMW Group, DaimlerChrysler, Ford Motor Company, General Motors, Mazda, Mitsubishi Motors, Porsche, Toyota and Volkswagen.

God bless the greedy, rich, selfish auto manufacturers who stuff their pockets with cash, and sabotage any serious attempts at energy conservation and emissions reduction. With their monkey lawyers, monkey scientists, monkey lobbyists, and monkey spin-doctors, they have the resources to fend off any threat and to keep their puppets in Washington in line. Of course, when you even get near these people their little buttons go off and they start screaming, "Jobs, jobs, jobs, economy, economy, economy!" In other words, if you actually ask a company to be responsible and do the right thing, rather than talking about innovation and how they will rise to the challenge, they give you a sob story about how many jobs it will cost to clean up their act.

On to Mental Wonderland...

• So, I ask: Why are so many churches built of pre-fab materials?

• How come smokers throw their butts and cartons out the window? Is the world their personal litter basket?

• How come so many divorced people are screaming about "the sacred institution of marriage" as a front for bashing gays?

• When Churches talk about "family values" how come they don't oppose the rampant consumerism and materialism in our society? Are they afraid of offending their best tithers?

• How come the owner of a grading company, who spends his whole career flattening God's creation, donates money for a new sanctuary and is then hailed as "a great Christian?"

• How come little yellow birds are so darn cynical?

• Why can't Congress focus on anything other than getting themselves re-elected? Maybe it's time for the states to gather together, close the federal monster they have created, and create a new government — one that can better focus on the future instead of being obsessed with "instant gratification."

• If humans are so good, why do they do things that are so bad?
