Presidents Day Sale

A little red, a little white and a little blue... it's all about Presidents Day. How did Presidents Day and the selling of new cars ever get connected? It seems like rather incongruous behavior to me. Cars and Presidents??? I bought my first car here in '75; it was a Camaro with a 350 engine-- but not red. It was yellow with a black leather roof. Here on the lot, ready to be sitting in someone's driveway this afternoon, is the new 2010 Camaro. I do believe the impetus for Presidents' Day car sales has little to do with patriotism or buying American. But what it really is escapes me at this moment. Varooooom!

  1. I think it's smirking at me. "you will never be worthy of a car like me," it seems to be saying. "you, who drive a subaru. ha! i laugh at you."
