    Madoffs Seek To Keep Nearly $70 Million

    I agree that Mrs. Madoff should get a basic residence. I have a very fair figure for what Mr. Madoff should get: 0.

    Obama's big payoff from making Limbaugh the defacto leader of the republican party: Civil war

    The Republican party as it stands is a party of losers run by losers. The internal conflict will do them some good. It'll shake out the losers, or at least cause the true conservatives to go form their own party that is free from the degenerate pundits.

    A measure of clarity at the CPAC...

    I know that there are significant numbers of Conservatives who are disgusted by the way degenerate scum like Limbaugh and Colter have hijacked the movement. The degenerates are not interested in a better America. They are false prophets who are whoring for power and attention.

    Buy Ford Stock People

    In the categories that matter, Ford is beating the crap out of GM. The refreshed Fusion has better performance and better efficiency than the Malibu. The Fusion Hybrid is fun to drive and efficient, while the Malibu Hybrid is slow, barely more efficient than a regular Malibu, and has awful...

    Obama address thread

    I don't think it's his southern accent. I never felt weird listening to Bill Clinton, Trent Lott, and other politicians from the southern US.

    Obama address thread

    Gov. Jindal just started his speech. I think he's being reasonably conciliatory. But something about the way he talks bugs me. It's like he's reading a book to small children.

    Richardson pulls out due to investigation...

    Not much of a "cloud", considering the FBI's tapes of Blago have him saying "F*ck them [the Obama camp]" after all they would offer him was their thanks if he appointed Valerie Jarrett to Obama's vacated Senate seat. While I think your original post is valid, this whole sidetrack about Blago...

    Troops silent to Obama's arrival

    How does the OP make any sense? The photo with Obama shows military personnel sitting down at what looks like a casual dinner. Some people are in uniforms, many are not. The event was for the Marines and Sailors to have a nice holiday meal with their families, not to cheer Obama. The...

    2010 Ford Fusion hybrid to get 41mpg city, 36mpg highway.

    The Volt looks like a Japanese or Korean econobox. It's design is neither inspiring nor unique. It is cramped inside. cramped $40,000 is too high a price tag. I can't see anyone choosing the Volt over the Fusion when the Fusion will utterly defeat it in style, comfort, and features...

    2010 Ford Fusion hybrid to get 41mpg city, 36mpg highway.

    Yup. 27 grand for this mid-size sedan, or 40 grand for a cramped car that costs as much as a bimmer but looks like a corolla. No contest. Ford will beat the snot out of the Volt.

    For an occasional driver how to purchase a car?

    Used Impreza hatchback. 4WD, good cargo capacity (for all your sports equipment). The gas millage sucks for a vehicle that size, but that's probably not a great concern if you are not driving a lot of miles.

    GM announces new DI 2.4l 4 cyl and DI 3.0 V6, 30 mpg for 2010 Equinox w/ 4 cyl

    This engine looks good on paper, but it only matches what you can buy from some Japanese manufacturers today. Nissan has had for years a Direct Injection engine that puts out similar #'s: Here's the engine in the Altima: QR25DE ? 2.5-liter DOHC 16-valve 4-cylinder Horsepower ? 175 hp...

    My feedback on a few budget 3 or 5 door hatchbacks

    I'm going to flame you!:D Who cares if your wife already has one? Just get a different color. Stick with what you know until you find something better! All the cars you listed in your original post are inferior (in some cases vastly inferior) to the Mazda3 in terms of driving experience.

    About Joe the Plumber

    It's pretty simple if you ask me. Poor people will beat your sorry ass and take your stuff if there is no societal framework that gives them a chance to legally better themselves. Taxes are insurance against loss. The wealthy are paying higher taxes because they have more "stuff" that...

    Cars to look at for $22K?

    The Camry has come in dead last in every recent midsize sedan shootout against Malibu, Accord, and Altima. And this was before the new Mazda6 came out. My advice is to drive the Camry to see if you find the handling and ride acceptable. Most reviewers criticize the Camry for sloppy...

    Consumer Reports New Car Reliability Survey

    Yes. When many R&D facilities are in the US, paying US engineers, when the factory is in the US, paying US auto workers, when the parts suppliers are largely US suppliers, when there is consistent reinvestment in US factories and labs, the bulk of the benefits are here in the US.

    Consumer Reports New Car Reliability Survey

    (1) You fail to respond to my point that automobiles are essentially global products. Parts, design, assembly, are done in all different parts of the world and the badge has little to do with where the car came from. (2) So what if the profits are reinvested? That often benefits everyone...

    2010 Ford Fusion + hybrid version unveiled

    Looks good except for that grille. It's better than the new Mazda3 grille, and the Acura TL grille, but that's not saying much. Also looks like the move to Electric Power Steering pays off in terms of fuel economy. I know many people hate the feel of EPS though.

    (1) There are more people working in the factories than there are people at the design table. (2) The people at the design table are often in the United States. The people who design, set up, and maintain the factory are often in the United States. For example: Honda Engineering jobs...

    This is false and people need to stop repeating it. Corporate profits ultimately go to the shareholders in the form of dividends. The shareholders could be anywhere in the world, regardless of the corporation's origin. If Ford was profitable and paying a dividend, and there were...

    Discussion on the American Automotive Industry

    GM has too many brands and too many lines of cars. Buick, Chevrolet, Saturn, Pontiac... what a mess. I would keep Chevrolet and eliminate many other brands. Buick is a lesser redundancy to Cadillac. GMC, Pontiac and Saturn overlap with Chevrolet. Pontiac's engineering resources would...

    Offer one criticism of President Elect Obama

    I don't think that my criticism is completely warranted just yet, but I think President-Elect Obama needs to make sure he communicates clear and concrete ideas during press conferences. I listened to his press conference on Friday, and I didn't hear anything specific about his vision for an...

    Are there any other Obama supporters/voters scared like me

    Even if McCain wins, he will have to contend with a Congress that will be majority Democratic. I have no doubt that McCain would be unable to pass his tax breaks and his joke of a health care plan with a Democratic legislature in his path. My biggest concern with a McCain administration is...

    If you considered a fetus a child, would you still be pro-choice?

    I'll throw in unnecessary and unprovoked military action as well. One of my friends votes for candidates solely on the basis of their support for outlawing abortion. I asked him what he thought of the tens of thousands of innocent Iraqi civilians that have died as a result of Bush's...

    A Glimpse Into The Psyche Of McCain/Palin Supporters

    2008 VP Debate Thread

    Palin was a disaster. When I think about the content of what she actually said, it is clear to me that her knowledge base is lacking and that she has poor grasp of the issues. She dodges questions. She repeats meaningless slogans. The Republican base will make excuses for her, but...

    2009 Camry or Accord

    Accord. Accord has a much nicer interior than Camry and much better handling. Camry has a worst-in-class interior and a steering system that is completely numb. You should also look at other midsize sedans. The 2009 Mazda 6 is said to be more sporty than the Accord and also has a very...

    One reason I don't vote Republican

    My comments are absolutely true in the swing state where I live. What is absolutely infuriating is that many of those that are derided as "elitists" are actually from the small towns, suburbs, and rural areas. The very fact that they derided the "elitist" bogeyman suggests that they believe...

    One reason I don't vote Republican

    From watching the news and reading what people are writing here and elsewhere, I get the sense that the Republican party doesn't want my vote. I am the descendant of Asian immigrants, generally socially conservative, pro-gun, and support lower taxes. I should be in the (R) camp instead of...

    Fiorina - Palin unqualified to run a corporation

    Fiorina was a terrible CEO. HP was utterly adrift with her at the helm, and the merger with Compaq was pretty fracking stupid as well. Then she escaped with a couple million bucks when HP finally fired her ass. I don't know why McCain has her as an advisor.

    Palin is more of the same of Bush Administration

    Some of the Volt Revealed

    The comments on the Daily Tech site were really harsh and basically came down to this: (1) It's a 15k car with a 25k battery and (2) Nobody will pay 40k for something that looks like a 15k car. I don't think it'll even come close to matching the Prius in sales.
