Promise people the sky and you're sure to get some attention. That's what the folks at FOSH automotive did and then turned around and suckered people into reading a pro-McCain, anti-abortion rant that, frankly, is pretty distasteful. Good thing we're going to remember just how low some people will stoop.
On the brighter side of things, we can at least dream of a Jaguar hybrid and a VW Polo in the U.S. while we wait for Daryl Hannah on the Daily Show. Really cleans the palette, doesn't it?

Imagine that.
Pushing a political agenda under the guise of an automotive enthusiast website.

Well at least Right Wingers are pro-car(for the most part.). Also remember this is the product of a 587 group which is in turn a product of Campaign Finance Reform...."My name is John McCain and I Did Not endorse this." Finally abortion-especially the type where a fetus is allowed to die if born alive (Which the ObaMassiah thinks is OK.), is pretty darned distasteful, if you ask me.

Matt.
I never understood the thought process of the pious people who use 'environmentalism' to protect unborn species of animals and birds but yet are pro abortion when it comes to humans.
Priorities.

Matt, keep your right-wing crap to yourself, or at the very least keep it OFF a car enthusiast site. I don't read these blogs to hear about Obama, McCain, abortion (wtf??) or the evils of 527 groups (note, *not* 587). If I want to hear some childish comment about a politician's middle name, I'll head over to townhall.com.

Travis,
Sorry to injure your sensibilities. But the all of the subjects were brought up by the original post of the link to FOSH. Oh, and sue me for getting the 527 thing wrong. You understood exactly what I meant. And when I referred to the presumptive Democrat presidential nominee it is a ccombination of Obama and Messiah-not his middle name-get a clue.

I never understood the thought process of the pious people who use 'religion' to protect unborn Americans yet are vehemently pro-war when it comes to killing foreign children.
Of course since it's the anti-abortionists who are adopting all of the worlds unwanted children maybe I should cut them some slack.

Heh. I never heard of Fosh, but I see nothing wrong with being anti- Barack HUSSEIN Obama. :)
But hey Blanco- nice try. Going off on them while you are doing exactly the same thing in this pointless article.

"suckered people into reading an pro-McCain"

Maybe I should sucker you into reading a book on basic Grammar.

His middle name is Messiah? I didn't know that.

Seems like a stupid way to convince people to listen to your message. How in the world do they think that lying and tricking people to come read your website is the best way to convince people that they're right?
