It's Official! Salt Lake City "Tea Party" March 6th!

[sdfletch]

David,

Thank you. My opinion is still that this thread was ill advised and was "a full blown political thread" from the start. It has no place on a car site.

David and Tom,

I salute you both. I fully support your stance and wish you success.

Thanks, FIA Mike

sdfletch, true this is an enthusiast site for Cobra owners or lovers, but aside from our beloved car hobby, we all live in this world together & our continued freedoms & opportunities to continue this hobby are in grave jeopardy. It's also true that we can go to Yahoo or some other distant blog that allows any kind of topics to be aired, complete without moderation. Those are total fiascos filled with death threats & profanity - they are useless & disturbing.

I find sites like this & a few others, the only places I read & discuss politics because we are a relatively small family & I feel it is worthwhile to come here & hear peoples' opinions & also voice them - we are all united by our mutual love for the car hobby. There's no sense sugar-coating things these days.

David K., I totally applaud you & your effort to do more than be just an armchair quarterback like so many of us are in today's society. We need more Americans to stand-up & say: "I'm mad as he!! & I'm not going to take it anymore!" What's going on in Washington is nothing more than a nightmare come true - a Twilight Zone episode come alive. We DO need to do something about it or else we will all be in serious trouble. I've never been to any kind of political rally or demonstration before, but if a "Tea Party" comes to Lansing, MI. our capitol, I'll be there along with thousands of others if I can help it. Why? Because I'm mad as he!! & I'm not going to take it anymore!

How's that for change we all tried to believe in?

Thanks Jamo.

David, I'm there if I can drive my cobra there, even though I'm an Obama supporter

[sdfletch]

Jamo,

Your comments are out of line, Sir. Mod take note.

[Jamo]

Oops...bye bye. Warned you elsewhere.

[sdfletch]

Do you own the site, Sir?

David, Jamo, et al:
I admire your enthusiasm, but as a Viet Vet, I'll have to pass....protests give me a rash.

Hehehe...no, but I drove by a Holiday Inn yesterday. Have a nice week, and mind your manners when (and if) you return.

Dave,

Make sure you drive as many cobras there as possible. I mean, hey, it'd be great advertising.

By the way, how's my stimulus package coming? It just needs an interior and a roof right?

Hey, this is a purely political thread...

Uhhhh, you're going to need a motor unless you plan on towing it with your Honda!

David

[acindrich]

I'm actually swapping out the Civic motor for now. There will be 87 ponies pushing the beast. Can you guys machine a set of motormounts for a Civic 4 banger? I'll need them by Thursday...

[David Kirkham]

We can billet them out...no problem. But, can we at least finish your new CV axles first?

To date I've gotten 6 email invitations, haven't decided which one?. This is a good thing well worth promoting.

Might I suggest all 6 of them?

If not, do what I did and throw one yourself!

I'm really sorry David to miss the Friday action... I fly home that day. Delta was less than helpful getting me onto a late Thursday flight. I'll be with you in spirit.
