SUV Bashing - Democrats Bad Sports

Still raving about SUVs. Alice in Wonderland through the Looking Glass, where are your heads? Not where your bodies are, obviously. . .The people who are dissing SUVs are riding around in BMWs, Caddies, Lincolns, and the ever present limousines. So let’s take a close look at their rides, shall we?

Just as an example, the popular 2006 Cadillac XLR-V gets 15 miles to the gallon in the city, but uses premium unleaded fuel, while most of the despised SUVs use regular unleaded fuel or the more environmental friendly E85 and get just one mile per gallon less, at 14 mpg. The 2006 BMW M5 is even less environmentally friendly: it gets only 12 mpg using that premium unleaded fuel.

And what about those limousines that our politicos and the west coast mavens so love to cruise around in while they rave about the damage done by SUVs????? Hmmm. . .well, those babies get a whopping 5 - 9 miles to the gallon. And how often do you see them just humming along at the curb, waiting for their exalted personages to return to those glorious nests?

My, my, my. Do we need to rethink our position, or do we need to step out of our limousines and start riding bicycles in order to put our money where our mouths are? Or do we just go on shooting off our silly mouths and hope that nobody with any sense notices what idiots we are, or what hypocrites we have turned out to be? It’s ok for us to spend our money on our pleasure and safety, because we are “special,” but when somebody out in the hinterlands wants to protect their kids, that is simply not allowed. Right?

Anything to support our democratic pontiffs, and their desire to gather power at any cost. Why should you have to think, and make reasonable decisions about things that matter? After all, you’re special. Right?
