News sources like ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN are not liberal. Over the past 6 months all they talk about is the "War on Iraq", etc... I hardly think pumping Bush propaganda into the news could be considered "liberal". The second Wolf Blitzer starts preaching about "Evil Saddam" killing kurds is when the TV goes off. Everyone knows that the kurds were the CIA's tool. But no, they want you to feel bad because their poor little coup failed. Boohoo. So rather than it being about the failed CIA job, it magically becomes... "Saddam gases his own people". Fitting lies from the not so liberal media.

You keep forgetting if ANYBODY says anything a Con. does not agree with then they are Liberal, does not matter if the people that own CNN, NBC, Fox, etc.. are VERY conserative and give lots of money to Rep's

You will find that the media outlets pay off... er... CONTRIBUTE to both parties. Nothing like a little Cover Your A$$.....

That does'nt make it right or prudent.

Yeah, but it gets them to work so they can feed their family.. sheez...get real.

Actually you don't need to make car payments to get to work. You can find many reliable inexpensive used cars that will do that just fine. I've had a couple $500 cars that lasted a couple years with minimum repair costs. For two years now I've been driving a $3000 Integra I paid cash for which has had a grand total of $480 in repairs.

I think Carbonyl's point was that there are many more prudent ways of getting around than pissing away $300-500/month on payments or leases. Most people do it, doesn't make it right or prudent.

So.. who is this guy to define someone else's transportation.. screw him. I ride motorcycles, you can get a good beater for $200, insurance is cheap and they get 60mpg.. should we make everyone do that and say that whoever doesn't is wastefull and hold it against them? America isn't a who can be the stingy-est contest just so we can give away our hard work to others that haven't earned it.. It's about personal freedom, personal responsibility, and personal success... Those who don't advance us only slow us down.. harsh but true.

They are just fun to listen to, the right-wingers get all worked up, even though I disagree with maybe 50% of what they say. I mean NPR could be fun too, but they have these stupid artsy shows like "Fresh Air" or other crap. If it was more political, it would be more fun. Other than that, there is nothing intelligent on Radio. I mean how many times can you hear eminem.

Wow, you really missed the point WHICH IS -> just because most people do something doesn't make it smart. People are still free to piss away their money if they so desire.

You guys can't have it both ways.. I don't have a PHD, but I know what is right and wrong

Right. Prudent. I don't give a frick what you guys or anyone else considers right and prudent. If I want to piss away 500/month on vehicle, then that's my choice. Some of you people need to start living your own lives and stop worrying about how to live other's.

<---Salivating about purchasing an Expedition in a couple of weeks. Right? Prudent? To me it is.

So you must have missed my last post where I said:

Was that intentional or you just didn't see it?

I can't fathom how anyone can listen to "Car Talk" or "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me" and not think NPR is fun.

They have some North of Pittsburgh on sale. The ad says something about fire damage but I think it's just cosmetic. 😉

Feathers: the awkward thing about your post is that the Democrats were running in the past elections with the economy as their selling point and the Republicans were not, yet the Republicans still managed to win the round. Personally that puzzles me a bit. If the economy was a major concern and the Democrats were running with this agenda, why were people not voting for them?

because all the Democrats were saying was that the economy sucked but they weren't saying much about how they would fix it. you ask 50 different Democrat politicians on how to fix the economy before the last election and you'd get at least 25 different answers. the Dems looked like a bunch of chickens running around with their heads cut off.

What's your point? I don't pretend to kow all and see all, but I stand by my point... You don't need a degree to have a valid opinion of morality.
