I work out of my home, drive an SUV - mileage is probably about 5000 miles per year. So who "supports" terrorism more, the Honda driver who commutes 50 miles each way to work every day, or me?

Regards,

WS

I don't understand the SUV argument. Bill Mahr and others are raising hell about the money for oil for the SUVs going to terrorist. Yet no one has ever gave an amount of how much oil money goes to terrorist and how much doesn't.

Is it one quart above a honda or volkswagen or two quarts? If it's all oil then you shouldn't drive anything, you're damned if you do and damned if you don't. I have noticed they aren't bitchin at other countries who drive SUVs.

Whatever it is, I bet if you add all the oil a honda or volkswagon uses in the USA and compare it to SUVs, it won't even equal a drop in the bucket.

Again we're plagued by arm chair quarterbacks who substitutes emotions for knowledge.
