Sheesh Kate, kind of harsh?

I did ask the local dealer, but the salesman just took my information
and said that the owner will call me.  That was 3 days ago.  When I do
make up main to get one, I won't buy from him.

BTW, In my line of work (US Army) they are giving us a rather large
stipend, to prevent us from retiring and going to IRAQ to make upwards
of $200K a year as a contractor.

Thanks for you fast response.

Great, Iraqi's are out of work and desperate, so Bush is using our
tax dollars to pay foreigners obscene amounts of money to do what
Iraqis would love to do for a tiny fraction of the price. No wonder
so many Iraqis are joining the resistance and no wonder Bush has
broken his daddy's record for deficit spending.

The cheaper method would be to stop using contractors.
Of course then the powers that be wouldn't get the money....

But WAIT a minute... that isnt harsh.  It's the truth.

Perhaps you should contact Saleen before you're too harsh on the dealer.

Since the model is new, there's a good chance the final figures havent yet
been set.

That didn't work out so well.  Saleens' website sends the email to a
dealer within my state., But I sent it to one different then who I
spoke on the phone with.

Yup, kind of harsh, but geeze, if you know me from the group, you'll see
that I am a tell it like I see it (even if it's wrong sometimes)  kind of
person. How else would you find something like this out and know that you
had a reliable source?
The dealer is going to rake you over the coals on markup so why not go
straight to the horses mouth?

Ok ok.. sorry if I sounded mean.
Anyway... retire and/or get out. Keep yourself in one piece and forget the

Not to change the subject, but what kind of advice is retire or get out? Here
we have a person defending our way of life wether he agrees with the policies
or not he stands tall on the front line so you sleep well at night!
We pay Americans well to do those jobs because the Iraqi's currently do not
have the skills required to perform the task.
I read an article today out of some car mag at the barber shop, very vague and
no pricing ideas... I suspect no one except the biggest dealers are even
thinking about prices on the saleens. I did see a saleen super charger add
though..

I'm a mom. I think like a mom.

My first thought was that he has already served and survived and that no
amount of money would be worth pushing his luck too far.

Both my father and step father served in the military, as did my
grandfather. I have two older brothers that served in Viet Nam and
miraculously returned home. I have two boys that are like sons to me
(Kristen's step brothers) one serving in the Navy and the other in USMC
right now. Their dad, my ex husband, was a Marine.

Why did I say get out...??? Because I thought of the people close to me that
I worried about while they served. I worry about the people in our military
that are serving right now in this stupid war. A war that I think we have no
business in. A war that makes soldiers punishable for killing an enemy
because the enemy was wounded. A war that makes it punishable to humiliate
an enemy soldier. It's a bullshit war. You cannot be politically correct and
be at war. Our military personnel are being lost, over and over and I still
have trouble understanding why we are still over there.

I believe that serving this country is one of the most honorable things a
person can do but the mom in me says once you've done your hitch, get the
hell out so you can rejoin your family.

Sorry if I offended, and I most certainly did not mean any disrespect to the
gentleman that posted the original message nor to anyone else.

I'd love to see an explanation of how invading Iraq
is defending anyone or anything in the U.S. other than
the obscene profits and wealth of the corporate oil and
weapons cartel. It's a diversion from the fight against
terrorism, and it's costing us a fortune. It's also creating
thousands of new enemies. Bush is creating many new enemies
of the U.S. with every Iraqi he kills and every Iraqi home
or family he destroys.

the enemy.
Call it a diversion if you like, I think I might too. In this case it's a
diversion for the terrorist as they all refocus thier energy on fighting us in
Iraq. Every day they are tied up over there is another day you are safe here.
And I'm feeling really bad about the crushed Iraqi families, if they are
combatants, insurgents or freedom fighters they died for their cause. I would
talk to the sept 11 families and count up the combatants in that group. Most
were civilians.

Are you one of the silly fools who "thinks" Iraq was behind
9-11?

Not by supporting the anti-American, anti-freedom policies
of the Bush regime. That criminal, treasonous regime has
revoked more of our rights than any in our history.

Iraqi's weren't our enemies? Are you 12? Did you miss the entire first gulf
war? Ok, I agree, they were not on the "A" list when we started our seach for
Osama, but the borders over there are so pourus it really doesn't matter where
you are from, what matters is where you are, turns out there are a lot of bad
guys in Iraq, although most are not from Iraq.
If you go back in history (last 100 yrs) I think the only times we were
considered "friendly" to Iraq was when they were at war with Russia and we were
helping them. Otherwise they never cared for us.

You're living in the past. That was over a decade ago, and at the
time, daddy bu$h told his good friend and ally, Hussein that the U.S.
had no opinion in Iraq's dispute with Kuwait - do what you want. so
Hussein did what daddy bu$h did in Panama - he resorted to death and
destruction.
When bu$h junior started his illegal, immoral, and globally condemned
terror attack, Iraq was no threat to the U.S. or its neighbors. That's
one reason why Iraq's neighbors didn't support bu$h's invasion.

> If you go back in history (last 100 yrs) I think the only times we were

LOL. When do you imagine this took place?
See, this is the sort of complete idiocy and ignorance that causes
people to believe bu$h's endless lies, and support his terrorism and
war crimes. Iraq was at war with Russia, eh? Do tell. <chuckle>
Fact is, Hussein was very close with the Reagan/bu$h regime, and they
gave him billions of dollars in U.S. tax payer loans, and they supported
and encouraged his deadly, brutal war with Iran. They also sold
Hussein WMD technology.

Its people like you who are creating new enemies for the US because you
refuse to back our president and our country because you believe all the
liberal Bush hating crap.  If we stood united as a country Iraq would not be
the mess it is.  They know thay can't beat us militarily but they also know
there are many weak Americans back home who can't stomach war and will win
the war for them if they give the liberal media enough time to keep turning
opinions against us.  Just like Vietnam.

Don't bother with the war for oil crap.  All your liberal heroes including
Bill Clinton, John Kerry, and even Al Gore said Iraq had WMD so don't try
the Bush lied people died crap either.  Saddam would have gladly given WMD
to Bin Laden or whatever terrorist de jour.  It was the right thing to do to
take him out.  He never abided by the cease fire agreement of the first Gulf
war so just think of this one as a resumption of hostilities.  If the UN,
Germany, and Russia hadn't been in bed with Saddam with the oil for food
scandal or their own lucrative contracts they would have come with us.
France wouldn't have because they are so jealous of us being the sole
superpower they will be against us just to be against us. Those countries
are the morally decrepit ones in the Iraq situation, not us.  You don't know
leadership when you see it, you are blinded by hate.

Spoken like a true Nazi. Your ignorance, your sheep mentality, and
your support for the Bush regime's lies, tax payer theft, mass murder,
torture, war crimes, and terrorism is destroying our country.
And of course, you're unable to explain how Bush's illegal, immoral,
and globally condemned terror attack on the innocent people of Iraq is
defending our country. That's because it isn't.

> If we stood united as a country Iraq would not be

Yeah sure. If only we all supported Bush's lies, war crimes,
and terrorism, there'd be music and dancing in the streets
of Iraq, and all the unemployed Iraqis whose homes were destroyed,
and whose friends and family members had been killed or imprisoned
without charge would be handing out flowers to the foreign invaders.
Did you ever wish you had a working mind, and weren't so incredibly
gullible and clueless?

They did welcome us, yes, even with flowers.  You refuse to see the truth
and nothing anyone says is going to change your mind.  All you can do is
resort to insults which is so typical of your kind.  Please take your hate
to one of the political newsgroups and quit polluting this one.  I'm not
