  1. Ever heard of Fast and Furious? (eric holder a player) At least Mitt Romney was in the business world creating companies which (staples) created jobs As for not being in 1787, ever heard of the Boston Tea Party....THe British government was taxing the heck out of our early citizens. Not too unlike today...Government needs to step back and realize they are the problem not the solution. As for being there and stopping the theatre massecure at least his attention would have been drawn to me, and maybe more folks could have escaped. And finally the NRA doesnt require you to wear flannel long sleeves, however if it is cold outside, than it could be a great choice. Thanks for stereotyping....but there are a lot of good, honest, hard working people that are members of that organization.
  2. The reason you wont respond to the redistbrution of wealth is because that is what is has been said by Obama. Its called class envy....But instead of hitting the pavement and trying to improve yourself many just want everything handed to them. Beware of a government that takes your money and gives it all to others.
  3. What we basically have is a re-distribution of wealth. The Have nots dont want to work and the Have's have to pay for it. At least give us a write off on our taxes for the new dependent that we acquired without the delivery room experience. As Lexirx330 said you can provide articles that support one side or the other, (works both ways) but the bottom line is the remainder of the work force is going to pay for this, and is given no choice. It isnt really reform, it is just another give away. Funny years ago a great democrat started the piece corp, (good thing) the thought is giving money didnt work. Giving the skills to people to support themselves was the real solution. So we sent young and old to foreign countries to raise their standard of living by sharing the skills to produce their own food, shelter, etc. That is real reform, get people back to work, let them contribute to the system to buy their benifits, and than fix all of the broke stuff in the health care industry. The list is already there... 1. Fraud 2. No coverage 3. Tort reform 4. Price fixing these are all problems. Put some people in the 535 of the royal family and make them solve these issues, not create another huge bureaucy.
  4. Completely disagree. The NRA is the only thing between you and Government to protect your constitutional rights to bare arms. They use to put on great training courses for the hunters when I was a kid. Dad required it before I was allowed to Pheasant hunt. And Eric holder and the justice department arent to blame for heavy automatics to land on our streets? Or was that all a set up to further move public sentament against gun stores. ?/??? Think carefully because the reason for the second amendment was for the citizens to not only protect themselves, hunt, but also to protect against a out of control government. That is why the British are a disaster of people that act like sheep following the social route. As for our politicians, we need problem solvers, not a bunch of little kings and queens living the high and mighty life. I personally would love to see the citizen represented by citizens, not a bunch of ego, never held real job morons that we have now. (Harry Reid)....Nancy Pelosi have done more to divide this country in their tenure than really solve or meet the needs of the people. We have real social problems of a nanny state where 47 % are on the dole, 535 representatives think we should support their spending sprees, and millions of single parent families that live in poverty because the government supports their stay at home and draw money that was earned by the rest of us and never accomplish anything in life other than pop babies and draw welfare, and end up on Jerry Springer shows....What in heavens name ever happened to the pround hard working, ethics of our grand parents. ???? I want fiscal policy to reign and welfare as a stepping stone to training and meeting the needs of the 21st century. What we have now are a bunch of whining, overweight, drug using losers....No ONE is entitled to live life watching tv on some one elses taxes, while they work their butt off, meeting their bills, responsibilities of family, and meeting their God Given rights of worship. Look carefully around you, observe people.....Do you personally appreciate the fact that for every one of you earning a living there is going to be another that expects you to pay their way.????? ANd OBAMA's solution is exactly that, governent to him is the solution....\ By the way I may be older, but my training and skills have made me wiser. And my son who is a police officer has given me countless tips...
  5. 1. I totally am for the ban on Automatic weapons. No place for them other than the military or police. 2. I have been trained for protection 3. I have had to draw and protect what I was ordered to do many years ago. 4. Darn right I would take out that individual if it was me, my family, or other innocents. I know the screwy laws would probably arrest me, but the results would have been better for the innocents. 5. NC is correct, our politicians are more interested in votes than protecting our borders...Yes I would put the military on the borders and stop this insanity. 6. Owning a gun would require a true safety course by everyone. Just like a drivers license. The course would have to be a minimum of 8 hours under the supervision of trained instructors.
  6. Look at New York, Has the murder rate gone down since guns were banned.? Funny in cities in Arizona where you can carry, the murder rate is relatively low....Gang activity however throws everything out. They have the guns....and they are not legal. In Stockton the Cambodian gang just shot up a police cruiser before they could be stopped. The Mexican and Black Gangs are running ramport in Stockton....Oakland has had the same problem for years. All I know if i were sitting in that theater with my grandchildren and some wacko opened up I would have shot back, and if he didnt go down, well you aim for the head or knees whatever it takes to stop them. Hey you cant stop wack jobs, but the common criminal would think twice if he didnt know whether you are armed or not. Risk is not one of their virtues. They rely on unarmed citizens, and slow police response.
  7. Precisely, The IRS interfered with competition. Healthcare is not a right, its a privilage for those that work. Otherwise they have to take what is available ie the ER. Real reform would go a long way toward solving the cost issue.
  8. No worse than the wack jobs that took two airplanes into the trade center, and a third one into the pentegon. Hey history is full of wack jobs. Being able to raise doubt to the wack jobs of whom can defend themselves is the unknown in this equation. Criminals and wack jobs dont abide by laws. Only the innocent law abiding folks. If one lously individual had had a weapon to defend themselves maybe there would not have been 12 deaths and so many wounded. We will never know. Police with budgets being cut everywhere are responding later and you are at the mercy of the wack jobs. Something has to give. Only folks in a bubble think that taking legally owned guns from law abiding folks will solve this issue. My prayers go out to the family of all of the victums. The only deterence to force is having a strong defense. Sadly the only ones with force are the thugs and wack jobs. Slowly we are all having our right to defense taken away. Assualt rifles should be controlled, but handguns, shotguns, and rifles for hunting and defense should be our right. Cities everywhere have only experienced worse crime when guns are banned. The lowlife still use them to commit there crime with complete indifference because they know that police cant respond to our needs rapidly enough......
  9. Change is what we are all about, but it has to be accepted as good or bad. The bad needs to be recycled and altered until it meets the majorities satisfaction.
  10. Does the MDX ride better than the RX? Just curious, my wife always wanted the Accura. But I love the RX400h....
  11. Great so the tax is for the 250k plus, well that is what we want to do is tax the folks that creat small business? That is a real job maker. Even CNN said that the majority of small business falls within that income range. Why dont we just give all of our money to the feds and let them give it out like the welfare state. Than we will truely be a third world class country.
  12. Sadly the media is not calling him to the carpet....It is a giant media blizz for the Obama campaign. The only folks trying are the packs. Being an upstanding man the Republicans are not fighting back. Bain capital created a lot of jobs also ie Staples stores etc. Chicago style politics has taken over the nation.
  13. good job, what kind of store carried those....my bad, just saw your link...Thanks again for the solution to your problem
  14. That $1900 was probably financed so the package is really bad. Oil changes can be done at Sacramento Lexus, however Maita Toyota can do them in their quick lube for a lot less. The only major items in that mileage may be a brake fluid change. Totally a rip. Heck for that money I would do your changes. Just kidding, I dont really enjoy doing them. Mine is enough work. Their is also many independents that do it, But dont suggest the Jiffy lube types....
  15. so that works out to $200 per oil change....What exactly does the scheduled maintenance cover other than the oil changes...Do it cover brake fluid changes, coolant changes etc? If not you go ripped.
  16. Good post, shows the real problem. People dont hate change, they just want change that solves problems without government bureacracy. Name one thing the government does well.
  17. Hey welcome aboard, I live in Roseville, not far.
  18. tell me something are the illegals going to pay the fine (TAX) whatever....No they will continue to stream to the ER rooms. There are just so many illogical solutions which will solve little if anything. As for the parties like the affordable health care, how many have actually read and comprehend the stipulations in the BILL? This was an underhanded, poorly solved, and not supported by both parties. Like I said both parties need to throw away their party hats and come to the table and do so real problem solving.
  19. Usually the servos make a clicking noise....I would think the blower motor bearings are dry. I am a kind of guy that would take it apart and see if a little oil on the bearing stops the chirp. Than you would know for sure. As for part, Suggest joining Club Lexus and use Sewell Lexus as they give a discount to Club Lexus folks. Other sources exist also. By the way a little three in one oil would be just fine. Tri flow oil is my choice but finding it may not be as easy....
  20. The scarey part are all of the TAXES (oh excuse me FEES) that Obama care is going to start charging when IT goes into effect. 3.8% realestate tax on sale of home for starters in 2013 (of course right after the election) How wonderful for the retires moving to downsize in the future. And the list will go on as we start reading what Congress didnt read before they passed it. THe only change will be the further destruction of the middle class with no means of ever funding this boondogle....Vote in November and understand what your doing.
  21. Welcome aboard....hope a lexus is in your future.
  22. I wonder if after removing the bolt, find a self tapping bolt just a little larger than the existing hole....Thread it in and at least provide some support from that point.
  23. I caught the Doctor billing for a visit where my mom had no visit. I would call that fraud. I turned them into the State Attorney General for the fraud, but never heard back....I wonder how many doctors or their staff pull that kind of stuff. By the way when I confronted the Doctors office, they hung up on me.
  24. I can only relate when it applies to my mother and mother-in-law. They both have the billable medicals bills after medicare. As for myself and my wife we use a HMO (Kaiser Foundation) And I only pay co-pays for both visits and meds. But the fruadulant billing has been experienced with both mothers. There is just too many codes, subjective billing etc. If doctors were allowed to a item list with charges it would be a beneficial education to folks in what they are really paying. Would be interesting to see what the insurance companys charge versus eliminating them. I am aware of the cost of medical coverage for the year. Cant wait to see what happens when Obama care hits the fan.
