Innocent Hummer Assaulted

July 18, 2007

I don’t like Hummers.  They’re ugly and kind of road hogs.  But I like this even less.

Perhaps the pundits are right; civil discourse is fraying in this country.  The last time I looked, in America you could drive any car you dreamed of that was street legal and you could afford gas for. 

But if you really can’t contain your righteous opinion, rant about SUVs on your blog, buy something small and Japanese so you’ll feel good about yourself (if not your fellow American workers), or, if you must, stick a note under a Suburban’s windshield like the irrepressible Amy Alkon.  Don’t mess with people’s hard-earned property.

Hybrid technology is promising, and maybe I’ll get a Ford Escape for my next car.  Now, I drive an 8-cylinder Mustang GT.  And if I catch someone vandalizing it I will vandalize them.
