How long before Cobras are outlawed?
 
Enjoy it while you can fellas... and if you think "well, my car is exempt since it's a 1965"... what do you think will happen when your carbureted beast is viewed as "endangering public health and welfare"?

"The agency said in its finding that "in both magnitude and probability, climate change is an enormous problem" and that carbon dioxide and five other greenhouse gases "that are responsible for it endanger public health and welfare within the meaning of the Clean Air Act."

I don't think your (our) Cobras will ever be outlawed. They are old cars, and old cars are generally owned by people with wealth. Wealth equals power in this country. Some politicians will complain about waste and environmental issues, but will undoubtedly be overruled by the (in)sane folks who love their cars and car collections.

Let's ban all those 2-cycle mowers, trimmers, edgers, blowers and chains saws first. They don't even pretend to burn all the fuel.

As soon as we're done using up all the oil from the Middle East.

Pretty strong possibility that enough people will figure out that global warming is BS before the next election and the Dems will lose both houses.

If not, they'll get around to the problem of us breathing out too much CO2 and tax us for that.

Like cigarettes they'll never ban them, just blame all the problems on them and tax the h*ll out of it.

They will certainly have a tough time catching me........:LOL:

Commie liberals....
3 days to save the captain of the ship in Somalia?
Nationwide tea parties......
Economy bankrupt.....
Global warming can't be fixed by banning cars as the earth does naturally cycle. Ask yourself, what happened to the glacier which spanned the entire central part of the US centuries ago? Before cars, before oil heat and before man made pollution.
BTW: China pollutes far more than we do, how they gonna stop that? They won't as they are lib weenies...
It's a crazy world.

I'm sure the laws will come out that we (mammals) are allowed one breath per hour. After all we produce more carbon dioxide and water vapor than anything else.

Trees and grass will be the only allowed life (PETA). After all, they consume CO and produce O2.

Cows must go. Way too much methane.

The oceans produce lots of CO (probably due to the exchange of the plankton for O2) so we have to cover them with plastic (If I were a bubble wrap manufacturer I'd be very happy).

Our lowly Cobras ride way below the radar screen in the grand scheme of all the bigger fish..

By the way, snakes are cold blooded and we are snakes

Gas
 
Best way to lower green house gas would be to shut the politicians up...nothing but hot air and gas outta those folks.They have the power to do right and don't...

So Maybe there is something to the song "red barchetta" from Rush:D
It seems like the story was set about 2015

They've gotta go after the Bikes and Boats long before the Hot Rodders.

Hell of a lot more of them than us! **)

The Next Salvo
 
If you want to get a glimpse into their sick minds and thinking processes take a read on the link to the Dept of Homeland Security Report Osama asked for. Click here to read or download the report => http://tabright.com/wp-content/uploa...t-09-04-07.pdf

Don't wait to look or download. Some of the sites have been having mysterious problems displaying and downloading.

Ed

Give it some time to load. They use a data intensive format and the screen will look like it has become locked for about a minute. The whole report is only ten pages - but what a ten pages it is!

Worst comes to worse, I'll just convert to e-85, and turn up the boost. Side benefit is I will smell like popcorn instead of gasoline.

Once or New King declares a National Emergency and suspends the constitution I'm sure old gas guzzlers will be on the collection list for the GOOD OF THE NATION...

When in doubt, always look to RUSH. The best band of all time.....and yes, what a great song!

Bill Bess 04-18-2009 07:06 AM

The only way the Cobra will ever become a thing of the past, is when we all die-off of old age, or they just become so unpopular that nobody wants one.....like 10'000 years from now!

"Beam me up Scotty"!
