While I agree with the man that it is over-hyped political BS, he probably shouldnt have said it. Too many people out there believe Al Gore, and comments like this could hurt company image with the tree huggers.

Comment someone left on leftlanenews.


That's it. I'm headed to the mall with a can of flat black aerosol and shooting 'Lutz rools' on every Chevy I can find until I get caught or run out of paint.

Notice how "warm" it was 1100bc. It has been much much much hotter than that in the past too.

I'm glad Lutz has some *****. I say it all the time and catch hell from the "green" people. Most of which have little to no common sense or anything resembling intelligence associated with cause and effect.

I say screw foreign fuels. We nearing the time when engineered plants and bacteria make ethanol production hundreds of times more efficient. We are nearing the time when "greasy" engineered bugs make our fuel oil. We are nearing the time when solar cells are efficient enough to power your house and your cars. It will happen.

Remember guys we were supposed to have a TON of hurricanes this year right?? What happened? One of the slowest hurricane seasons ever and now we have a drought in the south. Now they claim the drought is related to global warming even though there have been much much worse droughts in the past. The global warming bandwagon is all a bunch of people wanting to feel "good" about their life. 30 years ago scientists thought we were entering an ice age.

My favorite part is how the temperature of Mars has also noticeably increased over the same recent period of time that they are saying the temperature of the Earth has increased.

One damn Martian rover did all that damage.

I take back MOST of the bad things I said about Lutz when he killed the TA. Lutz...man....you're right..global warming is a crock'o'crap, so is Al Gore and his fruity-*** over sensitive to music lyrics wife. GM needs to stand up to BS like this, as well as Ford and Chrysler, rather than just roll over for these padded pockets politicians. Remember when the US car market was 34% of the GNP? Remember when we all looked down upon people for buying cars from outside the states...it needs to go back to that.

YES!! 1st comment on Fquick!

I totally agree with what Lutz said. Not that it isn't happening at all, but that is is NOT happening the way we are being led to believe. Just like the diagram above proves, i has happened before and will happen again many millions of times over, til the earth dies out.

I'm glad that I'm not the only one that doesn't buy into the all this global warming bull ****. people get so butt hurt when I voice my opinion, but whatever. and don't get me wrong, it isn't that I don't care about the enviornement, I just think that they are focusing on the wrong areas. there is far worse **** out there then exhaust from cars.

Never hurts to have a back up mode of transportation in case if the MidEast goes up in flames one day. Probably will happen.

We have plenty of coal to fuel power plants to charge electric city cars.
