What's reall sad about the Middle Eastern wealth is its bothersome distribution. Not even a percent of the people are controlling well over 99% of the wealth. Our foreign policy favors this system. Pissed off young men without jobs do not. Terrorism is our pay off. <---------just an opinion.

As for the car, that's out of control. The weight of that platinum puts all performance stats to rest. Do something like that to a Maybach or something that can handle the weight and still perform.

Please dont even get my started on this
Good Call Pete. I assume from this statement that you don't agree with port control being turned over to Dubai Ports World. On this rarest of days, I'd have to agree with you. Why are our commercial ports being put into the hands of foreigners. That's just more money going to the UAE so they can make more of these stupid cars. And on the rarest of days, I'm actually going to support a republican, Bill Frist, in his stance against this move and his creation of a bill making it illegal. And as always, screw the White House and everyone in it.

He'll definitely get over ridden though. He has Replicans and Democrats against him on this one.

I too have to agree with the republicans on this one. This is a stupid idea, and i read on MSNBC that congressman are already planning the veto override. Bush might have just shot himself in the foot, your pretty screwed when you find a way to unite the democrats and the republicans.

that picture's from car and driver. the story went something like this. that dudes car got caught in the crossfire of an apache with a 30mm automatic cannon picking off trucks. it was about halfway between the chopper and a convoy about 2 miles away. the guy wasnt inside when it got hit.
