Locate an Auto Repair Shop in Coolidge, Arizona

Old news? You think so? Meanwhile I hear Coolidge may run for president.....

If you decide to order an Equinox, chose your dealership carefully. I ordered an LT2 4 cyl in early October. Waited 12 weeks and went in to pay for it on 12/28 to get 2009 Federal sales tax credit and the dealer, Courtesy Chevrolet in Phoenix, reneged. They did not honor our contract, said prices increased; they devalued my RAV4 trade in by $3300; and I have yet to receive my $500 deposit. GM is helping me recover that. I have since purchased an Equinox from Garrett Motors in Coolidge (AZ) and my experience was totally satisfying with them. New Equinox is 6 cyl rather than 4 cyl and so far (200 miles) I love it!

" It's okay for government action to be imperfect in a crisis. Doing nothing is a far worse alternative (see, Hoover, Herbert and Coolidge, Calvin)" I'm speechless! Hoover was busier than Obama! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert_Hoover Scroll down to the "Policies" paragraph. Coolidge on the other hand was less busy and is regarded by some as a rather good president. Will Rogers famously said that the only time he felt safe was when Congress was not in session. A committee in congress is studying whether congress should change the way college football national champions should be determined! The better situation in Washington is when we have a congress dominated by one party and a president of the other party thereby making it more difficult for these meddlers to pile more laws and regulations, and yes, worthless programs like C4C, upon the taxpayers.

For once, America's generally lame media got it right and presented C4C for what is was---a business stimulus package created by the auto industry. It's okay for government action to be imperfect in a crisis. Doing nothing is a far worse alternative (see, Hoover, Herbert and Coolidge, Calvin). The plusses and minuses of C4C may lead to far better solutions next time around, that will improve the fairness and the effectiveness.

FDR is currently rated #3 behind Washington and Lincoln. The 3 of them regularly change position in the standings since 1948. The polls are strictly ideologically balanced and taken frequently. Being President in an economic or constitutional crisis is no guarantee of sainthood. The three predecessors to FDR, Harding, Coolidge and Hoover, rank #38, 26 and 34 respectively---- and the three predecessors to Lincoln ranked even worse--#37, 40 and 42. Risky business to be Prez in hard times.
