I found this VIDEO hightly disturbing. They took a perfectly good car and DESTROYED its engine. How stupid is this. The parts could have been used on other engines. Apparently others have the same reaction judging by the YouTube comments. Also that car could have been sold to someone who needed cheap transportation. Now it is WORTHLESS.

Talk about moral decay..

The politicos pander to the populace as they wish.

Sad to watch fine machines like that snuffed out to play with OPM for votes or just the pure folly of it.

Maybe it is time to just flush them all.. moral reprobates.. marching under a ‘green’ banner. they didn’t give a crap about the children 50 years and they sure don’t now... evidence TARP and the Stimulus legislation of late.

Who’s in charge of the CongrA$$ the last 2 years? hmmmm.

bet their limo doesn’t qualify to get squashed..

I am abhorred over these videos. At the end of them you can usually hear some flunky snickering in the background. The level of moral ineptitude in the country has got to come to an end. Sharpen your pitch forks folks. We're going to need them.

That's it in a nutshell

The Overlords don't want cheap transportation available.

Then everyone would have it.

You can't destroy the economy one cut at a time if you give “cash for clunkers” and don't destroy the perfectly good cars that are turned in.

Or part them out, that would make other 5-15 yr “old” cars that get only 20MPG able to be fixed.

In California the voters voted in billions of dollars for a high speed train...lol get on it, it-—along with other bright ideas of the politicians—will speed us right into poverty!

Well, except for the elite Politburo of course...they even will get gold plated bandaids with Obama’s picture on them while the rest of us can just use a paper towel.

I think they have a master plan...and they are the Masters.

These are sacrifices at the altar of a cult religion.

We should be very, very concerned about this.

As someone who has, on occasion, spent hours under the hood of a car trying to keep it running properly, I find this outrageous and sickening. Only a democRat could think of something this stupid.

That is infuriating. A perfectly good engine ruined for no good reason other than class/car envy. God I hate the government.

The lefties seem to like watching perfectly good engines die... read the comments of the mouth breathers who love 0bama.

This is maddening to those of us with kids approaching driving time. We seek out cars like this — old, safe — for our kids to drive!!

That would be one of the stupidest things I've seen in a while. A perfectly good car with many miles of service left and these idiots destroy it. Why? So that a few useless thugs from the UAW can work 1 more hour on their jobs.

Based on some numbers on another post, it'll take 7 or more years at a savings of 5 MPG to make up for the amount of energy wasted replacing a vehicle like this. I guess wasting energy is OK when it benefits brain-dead libtards.

It’s about control, in this case, of your choice of transportation. Zero & Co. do not even want PARTS for these older cars to be used in other, similar cars. If people want to drive a Honda Civic (what I drive) or a Toyota Prius, that’s fine. But Obamao is trying to kindly, gently force everybody into doing so.

Obama HATES the poor. He is destroying the very vehicles they usually get donated to them our they buy cheap.
