    Y'know, aside from the liberally-applied conservative slogans, this is what I always picture when I picture a '70 Chevy pickup. Beat-to-hell faded-yellow paint with a junkyard tailgate. Usually light blue.

    Still nursing a grudge about Bill Clinton getting a BJ?

    After everything that has happened since?

    Apparently time stopped for this opinionated s.o.b. some years ago. Especially given that he posts the dates too. I don't care what you think, buddy, much less when you thunk it.


    Poor truck deserves better.

    Perhaps s/he should use it to invade Grenada.

    @Stoatmaster: "..Perhaps s/he should use it to invade Grenada..."


    I have always said, that when faced with a choice of whether of not to invade Grenada, I'm going to go with saying 'yes' to invasion. I hear they have grenadine syrup down there, and if we play our cards right, there could be tequila sunrises on the beach for everybody.

    Why are you discussing the probable engine displacement when s/he's already told you?


    It's a 209.


    Oh, I see...

    I'm sort of tempted to go out and start using my car as a whiteboard to express my opinions to the world. It's more important they know how much I love bacon (03-1986, 12-2008) than how this guy feels about politics.

    Maybe it's all ironic? Some new Berkeley grad went out to the boonies and picked up this beater to "impress" his "friends."

    @P161911: Since it's even more faded than the mid-to-late-90s messages, I assumed it had something to do with the Battle Of Mogadishu.

    I like his 'No on 39' sticker, too:

    It seems like one of those issues that you have to be a giant asshole to oppose. Apparently, the proposed 1% property tax increase was going to ruin this poor bastard's life.


    He needs to move to one of the southern states with no income tax, that New York, California, New Jersey, and Massachusetts subsidize by paying more in taxes than we recieve in services.

    @Paul Y. can't think of a better, shorter handle: Most of us down here still pay Federal income tax, State income tax, home property tax, vehicle registration tax, local occupational tax, AND a full 9%-10% sales tax on everything (including food and medicine). Talk about screwing the poor.


    My point is that even with a lack of state income tax, those states usually make up the difference in property taxes (Tennessee and especially Florida come to mind).

    @The Name's Ash78, Housewares: @lowercase: NYC is it's own insane mess. They operate like a state-within-a-state, and are shitting bricks because Albany can't give them enough money this year (since their industries are crashing and burning), while the rest of us pay some of the highest taxes in the country, between sales taxes and property taxes, on top of the state and federal.


    I've been saying for ages that NYC needs to secede or join New Jersey.
