		<description><![CDATA[The problem with American auto brands is not that "liberals" prefer buying foreign brands, but rather that American automakers have a severe branding problem. Blame us for being snobs, but don't call us unpatriotic, I say!<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thequotidian.org&amp;blog=308916&amp;post=81&amp;subd=thequotidian&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
