The union boys are surprised that the Democrats sold them out?

Hahahahahahaha!

Welcome to the party, boys!

The Democrats sell out everyone!

today a miracle happened....

we were purchasing Christmas presents... trying to buy nice items with good old American labels on them....
(very well respected companies you’ve known your whole life)
online purchasing since our local stores have so little stock

and
today...after receiving about 15 items, the very FIRST “Made in USA” one arrived. The other 14 “Pendletons” or whatevers.... turn out to ALL have been manufactured elsewhere (and this American one is a “vintage old stock” item that’s been sitting on a shelf for 30+ years, it is not currently made in America)

Honestly, gang, our system’s out of kilter... I am happy to purchase good quality merchandise from other countries, okay, but ALL of nearly EVERYTHING!?

try to purchase a TV or radio made in USA,

It will be sold in only one color. Beige. Why you ask? Haven’t you heard of Beige-Jin ?

Buicks are very popular in China, they are a status symbol, they are like BMWs to Americans

However I would never buy one

1970, my dad had one of these, but a hard top with a vinyl roof. 455ci V-8 engine, 350HP and 510Ft/Lbs of torque. The only car I've ever been in that could still smoke the tires with going 55MPH. Dad's was a yellowish tan, but otherwise, same as the one below.

My oldest brother had a ‘68 Olds 442 the same color scheme as the Buick GS I posted above: turquoise with white interior. Also had a Hurst T-handle shifter.

[Lorianne]

These are being made specifically for the American market.

The Chevrolet Spark is actually a Daewoo and manufactured in Korea.

A pair of Buick Wildcats, '64 and '67...

You're right - my cousin had a GS455. I think those engines had something like 500 lb./ft. of torque. Back in the good old days, that much twist certainly would break the rear tires loose at highway speed. Now, the electronic stability control decides how much power you need. Sad.

I want one of those t-shirts that says "I May Be Old, But I Got To Drive All The Cool Cars". Because I pretty much did.

“try to purchase a TV or radio made in USA,”

To buy the last (new) American TV made here, a Zenith, you would have to take a time machine trip back to 1995.

I don’t regularly buy “stuff” anymore. Just groceries, fuel and services.

I had an `81 Buick Skylark. It was junk.

No comparison between Japanese-made vehicles and Chinese-made . Maybe someday , but not now .

[Mastador1]

They say it will sell under the Buick badge and be called the Envision. I say how about truth in advertising, sell it as the Chevy Crapmatic!
