And, the Top Ten New Car Purchases, subsidized by the American taxpayer, are....mainly foreign vehicles! Congrats President Obama!
Top Ten New Car Purchases Under Cash-for-Clunkers:

*3. Honda Civic
*4. Toyota Prius

It is a violation of the World Trade Organization rules to enact a public subsidy program and skew it toward only domestically produced products, so the Congress has no choice but to extend the program to all comers. No choice, that is, but to not spend the money in the first place.
Cash-for-Clunkers will do wonders for the Japanese economy, but its impact on the US job situation is problematic. This unintended consequence is a great illustration of what happens when the blunt tool of government subsidy is applied to the fine tuning of a free market economy. Government planners keep getting it wrong. That's why socialism is such a bad idea. So Obama can boast of a great success in taking American cars off the road and replacing them with foreign cars. Great going!

Republican Principles:
I BELIEVE the strength of our nation lies with the individual and that each person’s dignity, freedom, ability and responsibility must be honored.
I BELIEVE in equal rights, equal justice and equal opportunity for all, regardless of race, creed, sex, age or disability.
I BELIEVE free enterprise and encouraging individual initiative have brought this nation opportunity, economic growth and prosperity.
I BELIEVE government must practice fiscal responsibility and allow individuals to keep more of the money they earn.
I BELIEVE the proper role of government is to provide for the people only those critical functions that cannot be performed by individuals or private organizations, and that the best government is that which governs least.
I BELIEVE the most effective, responsible and responsive government is government closest to the people.
I BELIEVE Americans must retain the principles that have made us strong while developing new and innovative ideas to meet the challenges of changing times.
I BELIEVE Americans value and should preserve our national strength and pride while working to extend peace, freedom and human rights throughout the world.
FINALLY, I believe the Republican Party is the best vehicle for translating these ideals into positive and successful principles of government.

Facing Obama's Challenges!
As we face the challenges posed by Obama’s radical restructuring of the American economy, we must take steps both on the level of public policy and in our own personal finances to meet them.
The public policy actions are clear:
1. Oppose Obama’s health care proposals before they destroy our medical care.
2. Be vigilant so as to spot and out his backdoor attempts to take over the financial sector.
3. Battle against the internationalization of regulation and foreign control over our business sector.
4. Fight against Obama’s attempts to cook the census, muzzle talk radio, and force unionization of the work force, all efforts to reshape our political landscape and move it to the left.
