This thread was about a paint job about how a mother is honoring her son. If I thought for a second that a decent political debate could happen online Iā€™d be all for it but when you have people like Newman that obviously have had some immotional issues in his life its best to keep the political shit to a minimum, and that goes for the diehard redneck righties too. I consider myself more a moderate than anything else, and I love debate, I loved it at school and at work. But dont compare this shit to a debate because its not. Newman responce to my question proves that he could never objectivly debate an issue. ---

I find this a very intresting conversation quite indulging and enjoy the pessimistic thought pattern that you have presented. You race for enjoyment(so do i ) but you did a comparative cost analysts on someone, to be little the situation at hand. ( btw if she painted it and never drove it anywhere would you have opion )(not according the words in bold ). If i where to extrapolte the information you would come to find that you have degrade everyone who has drove less then you. because you have degrade her for driving that far. I find this way off topic but if you would like to speak more about this lets do dinner. - void the spelling working in two different screens ---

If i where to extrapolte the information you would come to find that you have degrade everyone who has drove less then you. because you have degrade her for driving that far. I never once belittled the situation. I did the comparative cost analysis because I was accused of calling the kettle black. I was asked to do this (checking myself). > [@Daddie](#): > > check yoself. As you will notice this is the third time I am quoting this. I never degraded her for driving that far, nor did I say I was better than her for using less gas than her. All I said is it is a fact, I attached no statement to that other than it was a gas guzzler,the fact of the matter is, she guzzles more gas than me. This is not an opinion, but a fact. Therefore I will not bold this part šŸ˜‰ Please do not accuse me of degrading people after doing simple 2nd grade math to quanitify the amout of gas used. But you were right about one thingā€¦ > [@fastandcheap](#): > > cause it will be a hard one. I just wonder how many more times I will have to repeat the words I wrote :roll: ---

> [@StrokedZ28](#): > > Newman responce to my question proves that he could never objectivly debate an issue. why? you asked a question about how i felt, i answered it truthfully. If that lady died tommorow, why would i care. You didnā€™t ask me to present an argument, there is no supporting detail why i donā€™t care, i just donā€™t. I can debate if i need to, but in this case, it is hardly worth my time. I am smart. I can rationalize my thoughts into well constructed paragraphs, if i wish. If i had something to gain from doing so, perhaps i would. I am smart. But, alas, i donā€™t care. ---

If you really cared so much about the oil sitiatution, youā€™d all be driving a toyota prius. um, I drive a Beetle that i almost hit 50 MPG with (49.289 to be exact), and can run on veggie oil I also ride my bikes quite a bit. infact, i think i might take the BMX out right now. I have a moped that i have hit roughly 200 MPG with and finally, my audi is better on snowy roads than 99% of SUVs out there and gets 28 MPG. I guess i am not doing my part. ---
