Sir Paul's new ride

#1 Post by themanintheseersuckersuit » Thu May 15, 2008 1:13 pm

Paul McCartney gets a hybrid lexus. It was airfreighted to him from Japan.

Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

Of course, driving a hybrid Lexus will offset the carbon footprint of airfreighting the car from Japan.

"Everyone was shocked"? Give me a break. How many houses does Paul own? How big are they? What a jerk.

If it's any comfort, this woman is not in the US Army. She is in the Russian Army. So we she would have to be a pretty good shot to hit you. :wink:
