For the record, Jeff Bridges is one of my favorite actors..

This guy has had as charmed a life as this great country can offer:

Incredibly good looking.

Talented.

Rich.

Famous.

If I were him the very first time this topic came to my attention I would have quit doing Hyundai commercials, issued a press release saying:

“Although Hyundia is a fine company, making fine cars, I feel it inappropriate to be selling their cars while so many American auto workers are losing their livelyhood”

I would then pick up the phone and let Chrysler know I am willing to do commercials FREE.

This is a no-brainer. If he were a two-bit actor who needed the money it would be one thing, but Jeff Bridges? Come on!

I think this will not help Jeff’s career, who would want to be allied with a foriegn maker while hundreds of thousands of Americans have been/are losing their jobs?

Apathy towards those jobs? I’d call it misguided, ignorant hostility.

Do most Americans think it’s wrong for an auto worker to make a decent living with health care and retirement ?

Not me! I think we should ban together as workers and defend other workers. UAW, IT guys, whatever, yes we should all want them to have a good living.

Most in this country think they can call for the other guy to get fired and cheer the loss of “his” job and somehow believe the forces of collapse will stop at “thier” job.

How about we all make a pact. Lets agree to buy American cars. And to appease the anti-American car folks lets just say we accept that we may have to go to the dealership for a warranty repair one, two, heck maybe three more times than if we bought a Honda.

Would that appease the Honda/Hyundia/Toyota/etc lovers? You can say, “US cars are a bit less reliable” than Asian cars and we won’t fight you anymore. BUT, and this is a big BUT…. we need to make this tiny sacrifice (buying US cars) to help ourselves get back on our feet (let’s not hold out hope waiting for TPTB to help us).

If you do, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised. You might just find that driving a US made car gives you a sense of pride in your country you may not have felt for a while. You may also find that, just like a Honda, your shiny new example of helping your fellow US worker, starts everyday and gets you to and from work, holidays etc. safely and reliably. You may be shocked to find the odometer roll past 130k miles and realize you have never needed to visit the dealership for repairs.

Then it asked me to downolad a Java apple or something so, no-go.

Besides, Im not up to battling the forces of ignorance in another forum; its exausting and depressing enough with the forums I do participate in.

I agree Hatfield, leaving out the “batshit crazy” stuff would have made the list palatable to a larger audience, those zingers detracted from the lists credibility. Its too soon to write that stuff even if you believe it.

Would Iran and N. Korea be wars enough to pull us out of depression? Could TPTB actually be planning for such an aweful eventuality?
