Is it un-American to buy an American-made gas guzzler
I scan a lot of blogs, and there are many in the U.S. that believe it is un-American to buy anything but an American made automobile. Somehow driving a gas-guzzler that requires oil from foreign governments that fund - directly or indirectly - terrorism against the U.S. isn't a problem. Considering that the U.S. economy is now terribly dependent upon cheap oil, that a huge military presence exists to protect America's oil interests which costs billions and billions of taxpayer dollars, and that gas guzzling funds terrorism against the U.S., isn't it un-American to buy a gas guzzler, even if it is American made? I'll take a Japanese hybrid car over an American-made gas-guzzler any day.

In Arizona, the majority of SUV's(American or Foreign) either have American flags or Christian bumper stickers. I don't see how these bumper stickers can be justified. Did Jesus and the founding fathers want us to squander our money and resouces just to look good?
That reminds me of a bumper sticker I saw. I was driving through South Pasadena, a very wealthy suburb of LA, and a brand new jaguar sported the bumper sticker, "Jesus was a liberal".
Somehow I don't think Jesus would have been a Jaguar-driving liberal living in a multi-million dollar home. I'm pretty sure that isn't what the message of Jesus was about.
