It's getting chilly in Hades...

Words cannot describe my shock when I read about W giving tough love to American automakers. "Make a product that's relevant" he says. As someone who's witnessed American car manufacturers embarrass this great nation for going on 30 years, I couldn't have said it better myself.

Maybe if we declare war on Japan and throw in the towel before things get ugly, they’ll return the favor we did for them after the Big One by coming over and showing us how manufacturing is done in the big leagues. For now, I'll keep buying Toyotas and in this one, very specific case, throw my full support behind our commander-in-chief.
