God, Guns, Guts & American Pickup Trucks

This item was filled under [ Off Topic ]

Nothing says American more than a Missouri car dealer owned by a Mr. Mark Mueller who is literally giving away a free AK-47 with the purchase of a new truck from his lot.  His company slang: God, Guns, Guts and American Pickup Trucks.

Normally, this story would be nothing more than your local car dealer handing out free weaponry as if it were promotional t-shirts and pens, no biggie.  But this story has a twist…

CNN was so intrigued (or disgusted - one or the other I suppose) by Mr. Mark Mueller’s dedication and patronage to  America and the American people, that CNN decided to put him on TV in hopes of making a true American look like a piece of human waste, nothing new for CNN of course.  Boy, were they in for a treat.

Don’t get me wrong, but I’m no TV producer; but I sure as heck would not do a LIVE feed to interview a man giving away a free AK-47, make low and snooty comments about his company slang, ask him if “God” might be offensive and finally try to CYA and have it all backfire… Well, CNN sure did.

I would love to get your comments and feedback on this story, I know you enjoyed it ?

    Wow, this is without a doubt the greatest car dealership interview of all time! A true masterpiece.

    My favorite snippet: Anchor lady “What would Jesus do?”
    Mark Mueller “They didn’t have guns in Jesus’ time”

    The guy completely destroys every argument the CNN anchor lady can feebly throw out at him. I have to admit that I watched this at work and I honestly laughed out loud a couple times(which turned some heads).

    I wish our politicians could stop with all the political correctness and confront the issues half as well as this guy does. A real straight shooter. He should run for office or something.

    Great find Rob!

    That explains it, I skip videos. Are you familiar with recent Pew Research survey finding that people spend only 2% of their online time watching videos? It’s really a waste of your time.

    I have yet to see that research, I would have guessed more than 2%. Its funny because the usage on video sites is amazing. It would take over 400 years to watch all the video’s on YouTube. Personally, I think videos are great, which is why I have recently added them into my blog. However the level of junk videos filled with garbage information is even more amazing..lol

    Thanks for the survey video fact: if you have a link to Pew Research survey please add it into a post comment :)
