Go watch the YouTube video. (Or, the "shocking video," as Power Line
hypes it.) The first thing you notice when the camera starts rolling is
a union member already sprawled out on the ground with somebody standing
over him. No explanation of how he got there (pushed, shoved, punched?)
and Ham couldn't care less. Then yes, Gladney is pulled to the ground by
somebody wearing a union shirt. (At the :06 mark.) But instead of
Gladney being beaten and punched, as his attorney describes, and instead
of union "thugs" standing over him and threatening him, Gladney bounces
right back on his feet in approximately two seconds and the scuffle ends.
That was the savage "beating" the conservative blogosphere can't stop
talking about?

You asume tha there was indeed a "beating" and you are as uncurious
about how the union member ended up on the ground first as the right-
wing blogosphere is.

Someone's opinion:
<http://crooksandliars.com/david-neiwert/faking-victimhood-just-how-hurt-
was>
Right-wingers love to bring up cases of fake hate crimes and overblown
racial-profiling claims as proof that these phenomena don't really exist
to the extent that their victims claim. (See Ann Coulter for the most
recent example, but Michelle Malkin has made a minor cottage industry
out of this specious narrative.) But they sure do love it when a
minority conservative can make a reverse-the-charges accusation (usually
involving race) against liberals -- no matter how dubious the claims.

Hey! Like when Sackie accuses Democrats of being the real racists or

As when they are against poor people, like with clunker junker.
that is a giveaway program helping thoe rich enough to afford a new
car, against
those who are not well off enough to buy a new one.
Niow we have taken hundreds of thousands of viable but inexpensive
used vehicles off the market, making it harder and more expensive for
the lower classes to find a good used vehicle.
Its those nasty unintended consequences again!

You missed the punctuation. He focused on the level of the "beating".
"Beating" questions whether one ever occured at all.

Do you have any data to back up your claim? I found this:
The volume of used cars sold through dealers rose 3.1% in February
compared with last year, the first year-over-year increase in 12
months, reports CNW Marketing Research. By contrast, new car sales
slid 41.4% in February from a year ago.
Wholesale used car prices have risen steadily since October, including
a 1.1% rise in February compared with January, says Tom Kontos, chief
economist for Adesa Analytical Services, though they remain lower than
in February 2008.
http://www.usatoday.com/money/autos/2009-03-16-used-car-sales_N.htm
And this:
Used car prices have risen about 5% on average in the last year, says
Tom Webb, economist for Manheim Consulting, a branch of a major used
car wholesale operation. Fewer new car sales have meant a drop in
recent-model trade-ins. Car rental companies also have reduced supply
by cutting their fleets. That's resulted in fewer castoffs for used
car lots.

If you crush 750,000 cars in regard to this program,
a good number of them will be otherwise viable cars.
they are crushed rather than exposed to the market for resale.
that is a lot of viable cars in the $2,000 TO $4,500 range
that can't be resold. the laws of supply and demand have not been
suspended.
This makes harder to locate a good cheap car, it raises
the price of them, and it hurts poor people.
The stats you offered are all meaningless.'They wer compiled before
clunker junker, and reltate to
ALL used car sales and within PREVIOUS periods.
And the data on used renatl car sales are at the high end'of the used
car market, while
the clunker junkers areat the low end.

Data usually usurps "common sense".

Now all we're missing is some valid data to confirm your hypothesis.
You don't get to claim a hypothesisis true without it. That's how it
works.

Which showed increasing prices and lowered supply BEFORE the program.

Oh, the fact that demand for used cars had already been increasing and
a lower supply makes no difference? I thought you just mentioned it.

on one hand,
especially if you figure that the life of a clunker is another 4
years.
You would only calculate the pollutiion difference for 4 years.
On the other hand, in 4 years it has to be replaced with something
else, anyway.
so its just a defferral.

the blurb about the dearth of former rental cars on the used market

What Shhhh! did was to show you that what you're claiming as an

It just happened.
Anyway, I will borrow your data about
]the death of used rental cars hitting the]
used market, and that it drove up proces of used cars.
samr thing when theswe cars are held off the market
in that paticulr range, prices will go up, and it will effect
adjoining ranges, as well
to some degree.
