So here in America we put a Lexus symbol on a car and raise the price an extra $10k and that makes us feel warm and fuzzy inside.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;BULL$HIT! That's what this commercial is. Another example of America's lust for material possessions to fill the empty holes inside their hearts.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">kyle steed</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 08 Dec 2008 17:18:30 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Lexus Commercial Fail: The Car for Spoiled Brats</title><link>http://chuckwestbrook.com/lexus-commercial-fail-the-car-for-spoiled-brats/#comment-9446733</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Pretty standard for the times Chuck...let them put another hose in your pocket and rub it in your neighbor's face.
