#1 How is it that an educated adult reporter for a major newspaper doesn't know the difference between wheels and tires?

And his editor didn't correct him!

Morons.

#2 Parabellum, please. I'm pretty sure they only know where to put the gas. I mean, that's why the dealership has service techs, you know?

#3 I'm pretty sure the reporter was correct to say the tires were stolen. I imagine the wheels were too, because it's a little tricky to get the tires off the wheels without a machine.

#4 I got 2 new ones and I'm rolling again!

Hmmm...no, the state got 2 new ones for the state-owned Toyota Camry. Does the UAW know that little fact oh mighty champion of the working class? /sarc off

Why does the attitude come off like a 'resource redistribution' view by a socialist bureaucrat? /rhetorical question. It's not like it was his personal money/resources involved.

#5 The Feds need to provide stimulus money to folks who need to buy tires. So they won't be forced to steal them.

#6 Ah, they stole the right side wheels. NOW it starts making sense...

#8 At least old Jerry is trying to keep up with the times by driving a hybrid. When he was governor he rode around in an old Plymouth instead of riding in a decent limo like any sensible governor would. But then, he's a real "man of the people".
