Ask Dr. Liberal: Good Deal!

Dear Dr. Liberal,

Should I buy a used car from Barack Obama?  It is a 2005 Mazda Protege with 65,000 miles on it.  He is asking $3,000 for it.  What do you think?

Dear Shopping,

Kelly Blue Book tells me that the car you describe is probably worth around $3,500.  So in the immortal words of Maya Angelou – oh hell yes.  Buy the car, but be sure to offer Barack Obama only $160 dollars for it.   When Barack Obama hems and haws at the $160 say that you were only kidding and would really only pay $60 for it.  When he says, “Okay $60 it is.”  Say, “Not so fast. I see a dent in the fender which is going to cost me $200 bucks to fix, so give me the car plus $140 and we’ll call it even.

When he hands over the $140 and the keys be sure to give him tons of attitude and act like you were thoroughly abused.

Yours truly,

Dr. Liberal
