Chevy Volt Halted. Who did not see this coming?

[Diamondpilot]

I wonder if Obama drives a volt? I wonder if he actually has a drivers license?

Yep, its issued in Kenya.

Well, you won't be going far in your electric car, that's for sure, horse might be better than an electric car. The government knows that freedom to travel is key to controlling you and you took the bait, hook line and sinker. I however will keeping being free from the grid in my diesel car, that's what cars are all about breaking free from your home and traveling, some people just don't understand. You want to live your life at the end of an extension cord that's fine for you, not me. Not sure you don't really understand who the lemming is.

I drive a 2008 Prius hybrid. Been across the U.S. twice and it has 170,000 miles on it. Fuel usage cost about half what a regular passenger car would be. Driven to almost all the States, supporting the Tourist industry.
I never knew limiting your travel by having an electric car was a government conspiracy? If that's the case then having to drive from gas station to gas station is the oil industrys way of control. They killed the electric car in the last century. GM killed the public transit lines in several citys.

You missed the point. I despise politics and could care less who is better or worse. My understanding is that TBN has a political forum, which would be a far more appropriate venue for such matters.

For someone who claims to despise politics you seem to be in a lot of discussions about it.

If you would read all of the posts concerning new permitted oil drilling since Obama took office you would see that the oil companys have the permits they don't have the incentive. There is too much oil being produced and oil prices are not high enough to drill for more. Oil companys have no reason to drill for more cheap oil.
Federal report: U.S. oil imports down, domestic production highest since 2003 - chicagotribune.com

The price of fuel will go up and down, up and down the problem is it will never go down to the level where it started.

You make it sound like the President enjoys seeing high prices. The U.S. uses 20% of the worlds oil. United States Crude Oil Production and Consumption by Year (Thousand Barrels per Day) He is preparing America for a reality check when he promotes alternative vehicles.

Talk all you want but Obama and his energy sec. Chu have both made statements to the effect thatAmerica should be paying higher gas prices and we won't get progressive enough until we are forced to through higher fuel prices.

No matter what Obama says during election time, he wants higher fuel prices for America.

You have no legitimate arguement. All I see is inuendo and finger pointing without factual comparison and capacity of other Presidents goals and accomplishments. What I do see is a bias that can not proceed beyond a mans skin.

Take your bias to the political forum and let us discuss the merits of the product, not the policy. Products survive on their own benefits to the consumer. Benefits aren't always recognized by the public. Some things don't catch on till there is no alternative.

I say the same thing about your innuendo and lack of factual references.

No respect for forged documents.
Arizona sheriff finds Obama presidential qualifications forged - English pravda.ru

The house of cards is about to come tumbling down around Barack Obama's ears as the momentum of evidence builds. Law enforcement has found his birth documents to be "highly suspect" as a forgery. His draft card has similarly been found by law enforcement as being "highly suspect" as a forgery. The smoke screen cover created by his birth certificate, hiding Minor v. Happersett in a shadow of false mockery, has been blown away. Leaving the Supreme Court case alone on the stage, glaringly exposing Barack Obama as an usurper, an unconstitutional President of the United States.

I always laugh when people start blaming government officials. Wake up, this isn't a republic it's a corporate oligarchy bought and paid for by lobby money. It stopped being a republic when we gave corporations the rights of individuals. At that point the individual got smothered.
Every time you go the gas pump, every time you fill you home heating fuel, every time you turn on a light you subsidize the corporation and you lose just a little more independence, freedom and individuality.

I'm off the grid, next year I'll be heating my house with alternative energy and the year after that I'll be driving an electric for free. That means the corporation that controls people won't be controlling me, that's how you beat the machine.
Alternate energy is the people's energy because it liberates you from the corporate strangle hold.
How many people here think corporate oil wants you to drive an electric car? That's the last thing they want you to do. They never want to see a solar panel on your roof because that means you don't need them. Well I don't and they will feed the lemmings pabulum like some people spew here in an attempt to create fragmentation, to divide. It's the old saw, "Divide and concur". How stupid can we be? Pretty stupid!

Rob

Rob, my old Catskill living, off the grid, liberal friend, you are late to this party old buddy. Wondered when you would be showing up.

Like always, you have a few good points but you're just all over the road like a drunk.

Anyway good to see you jumping in here. I look forward to reading your posts. Always good for some laughs. Take care my friend!

I'd love to see Obama frog marched out of the oval office in handcuffs.

Glad you like your Prius, but the only venue your Prius gets really good mileage is in stop and go city traffic. For the highway like cross country trips you mentioned, high pressure diesels are best, they don't have to carry a useless electric motor and 300lbs of batteries along for the trip.

For someone who claims to despise politics you seem to be in a lot of discussions about it.

If you are referring to my responses to this thread, I suggest that you get some glasses and read them again. Otherwise, you are wrong.
