Quote of the day 2

Bob Lutz (once more cribbed from AUTOEXTREMIST) in response to a recent Thomas L. Friedman New York Times column (which politely starts: "Is there a company more dangerous to America's future than General Motors?"):

"In an email to The Detroit News, Bob Lutz, GM Vice Chairman, said that Tom Friedman, 'is so 'over the top' that it borders on psychosis.' Lutz said his hope 'is that the majority of Americans, not being extreme liberals, and harboring a deep-seated distrust toward the media, will see his piece for what it is: the product of an unusual, but not altogether well, mind.'"

Quote of the day

"...and others of his ilk who share Friedman's laughable, Detroit=Bad, Toyota=Good mantra, and who would have us all driving flatulence-powered clown cars made out of balsa wood, hugs and a smile, if they had their way - with Toyota emblems on them, of course."

The AUTOEXTREMIST himself, Peter M. DeLorenzo. Who else?
