Well, gee ... have you tried the 'DATING & RELATIONSHIPS' thread ... ? THIS one is for POLITICS ... duh.

We are rapidly becoming a 'surveilled' society - and now they seem to have crossed the last line ... ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES, folks ... need more proof than this ... ?

Someone already did that.He just replaced stupid with the word Jew.How about we put you in there first for this idea which is so stupid I find it hard to take seriously.

I loved that movie Soylent Green!

Tell that to all of the people who didn't use floor mats and were KILLED!

""I'm absolutely certain that in my situation, it was not the floor mats," Elizabeth James told ABC News. She was driving her Toyota Prius outside Denver, CO when she says it suddenly shot up to 90 miles an hour, even though her foot was on the brake and not the gas pedal.

"I kept going faster and faster," James said. "And all of a sudden… my foot was pressing on the brake super, super hard and I wasn't slowing down."

James and some other Toyota owners suspect the accidents have been caused by some kind of glitch in the electronic computer system used in Toyotas that controls the throttle."

"A haunting 911 call captured Lastrella telling the others to pray before the car launched off the embankment.

According to the lawsuit, the Lexus ES350 "began to accelerate on its own." Saylor attempted to apply the brakes and do everything possible to stop the car, but he was unable to do so"

"Bulent Ezal was driving with his wife of 46 years in their Toyota Camry in central California, when he says it suddenly took off. The car plunged over a 100 foot cliff into the Pacific ocean, and while he survived, his wife did not.

"All of a sudden the car surged with force and I was thrown back to the seat," Ezal said. The last thing he heard was his wife screaming before he blacked out."




Toyotas own president admitted that they were NOT focusing on safety.... and he publicly apologized for it... wow... that's gotta hurt jim

Toyota sales are now down 16% and they are still dropping....

Read'em and weep

Sorry Middle..that just struck my funny bone, Beck is whack, whack I say!

To become a presidential nominee,, proof of citizenship was required. He proved it just as much as any other nominee has to the people whom he is required to prove it to.

As for the rest, he has done PLENTY, it is a broad generalization to say someone in the position of president spends a year doing NOTHING. One can go to politifact.com or many of the other fact checking sites to see a LIST of all the things he has been busy with since he took office.

Things are still not great, and possibly not improving at a rate some are happy with, but we didnt get here overnight or even in one year so it will take time to recover. I am glad we did not see another depression.

As to paycuts, this particular president took a HUGE paycut in return for a position where he receives such grief. He has also been part of other measures to reduce government salaries,,,but he is just the president, and not a dictator. Once he puts an idea on the table , he cant wave a wand and FORCE it to happen , it takes a team of people (senate and congress) to make it actually come to fruition.


and school,, well, I am not a politician but I have pondered sending my kids to private school for many reasons. IN such a high power position and such a violent culture, the decision for a president to send children to public school is more complex than just economics. With the danger posed to these particular children, I dont blame him for sending them to a private school. It is what I would do if I had the threats upon me and my family which he does. It is also what I would do if I wanted them to have the best 'education' in an environment that supported my own values and ideals.
Id love to see a woman president as well, and hopefully, with the election of our first minority,, that is a reality that is not far away.

Yes, it would be unethical, but how would you judge who fits this category?

I will be glad when SOMETHING passes so that changes can start taking place. The longer it gets postponed, the longer progress gets
PUT OFF .

I'll be glad when its over one way or the other . It's stopped the government in place for a year now . There is way more important things we need than over priced health insurance. Like jobs , You dam well don't need health insurance if you're starving to death . And who needs the government making you new bills that you can't pay because the government gave all the money to the rich. And who needs a government that 's not on your side ... WE DO need to get rid of all the congress members who vote against us

It's called "jobs" that the american people need and something that domestic builders can not provide. I think most americans are worried about having a job right now rather than the profits to others. Americans just want to pay their bills and live, something our "American" government has lack in figuring out

Worried about your job at toyota are ya....
