So I gotta describe this the best I can. On a jap truck I saw a bumpersticker proudly declaring the owner a union plumber, while on the other side of the bumper was an Obamma for president sticker.
Anyone else see the somehting wrong with that?

Maybe I'm wrong but I would expect many union plumbers to vote for the Democratic candidate.

I think he is talking about the Jap Truck part.... being that most jobs are being taken by people over seas.

ok... it all makes perfect since to me. He can give a crap less who made his truck, he's not in the truck making business. He's in a plumbers union, that's an industry requiring the worker to be physically present to do the job. HIS job is secure no matter where his truck was built, so what if the automotive union is having issues, not his problem (typical mentality). Democrats typically support union and vise-versa, no surprise.

Uh-huh and as someone who drives a "Jap" truck on a daily basis, I will ask you where was your Glock or AK47 made? My "Jap" truck was built in Canton Mississippi. It was engineered here and as many parts as could be were sourced here. What about that Dodge that was made in Mexico or the Ford that was made in Canada? My Titan has as many SAE bolts on it as my Mustang does. Also, in my opinion on the auto workers union is a major problem with the American auto industry.

Don't fergit Joe having Obamma admit to wanting to redistribtute the welf. How many union plumbers wanna redistribute the welf.

And have you seen any of what those fools have done to that guy because they blame him for Osama making that admission and embarrassing himself?

that's another thing, Nissan and Toyota are building in the U.S., Dodge, Ford and GM are building in Canada and Mexico.... my Chevy was built in Canada.

Exactly! I remember seeing the 2005 Consumer Report on cars. It was amazing seeing that Honda, Toyota, and Nissan had some of the higher reliability ratings. American manufacturers had the lower ratings. Then, I saw the page that showed where these cars where actually put together. That's when it all made sense.

 

[scubasteve]

Yup. Jap cars aren't built with UAW labor. That's why their plants are located in the south and not Michigan.

My Ford was built in the U.S. every single one of them. All 5 I own or have owned are U.S. made. (still have 3 of 'em) 2 in Dearborn, 1 in Virginia I believe (may be the other was round), as for the two I don't own, I think it was one in dearborn and one in virginia?


BTW, something I wished I had my camera for.

Driving down I-20 headed to Funroe, comin up on a mid 90s beat up white dodge dually. Bubmper sticker on the back with a confederate flag saying "Fighting Terrorism since 18whatever" Had a confederate flag flyin off the antenna.

Pull up next to the truck looking for a good 'ole boy. Nope, old black man. Made be proud, I love it when I run into people who get it, who understand and haven't been brainwashed by 'the system'
