"What is your connection with the Daimler Chrysler folks? Do you become this adamant a protector of the faith by simply buying a PT Cruiser? This is extremely interesting."

No, I have been a life-long supporter of Chrysler, but that is not my reason for debating you.I would argue the same points no matter what the company, based on the points you have tried to pursue.

"So you say:

You can't see why any sane company would want to pay UAW workers?"

And where exactly did I say that, Kirby? What I said, *exactly* was this: "Why would any company with any brains pay a U.A.W. worker $35 per hour to assemble a car when he can get someone in Mexico to do the same thing for about half of that, *if* that much?"

Again, you are taking something I said out of context and twisting it to push your point based on an emotional reaction.

""Kamakazi" is a tactic as well as the "killers" that are now taking over the auto market. (Homicidal killers to you...heros to their Japanese families.)"

I won't even get into this.It is a stretch at best, and has no place in this discussion. While you're at it, maybe labeling DCX as a group of 'Huns' or 'Crouts' might really help your point.

"For a German company to exhault or say heil, might be even more common than you think, unless you have something in sinister mind."

Let me tell you something; German companies don't use this phrase.It's just not done.German companies are hyper-sensitive to any and all references to anything from that period in their history that might even be remotely construed as being anything sinister, therefor they do not do it.I work for a German company, and work with several as my customers.And no, it not only looks bad if someone has something sinister in mind, it just looks bad period.A 20+ year employee of the company, from Germany was looking at your comments and that comment in particular ("They (now DCX)jettison jobs and companies as fast as you can say Heil!"), and the he immediately reckognized it for what it was, which was an ignorant comment directed at a particular ethnicity from an ignorant person.

And no, I'm not here to pick any fights, but I will disagree with you , or anyone else, when I see a someone continually trying to spread either mis-information or some sort of 'agenda' because they have some sort of axe to grind, although I'm not sure why you do this.
