I have to laugh at all the people who believe the g.M. workers are responsible for the BIG MESS…..I have watched the number of auto manufacturing plants close and the workers get farmed out for the last 15+ YEARS….I have watched the big 3 build new facilities in countries without EPA laws while paying the lowest labor costs to uneducated people-most of them cannot read-let alone understand a micrometer.And the price of the cars did not go down….Toyota and Honda pay their workers better than we ever got paid and now are selling their cars for as much as the big 3 ever did.All this while using lower grade steel and plastic…..

I less than one month George W. Bush will be leaving office but the damage that he can do in one month can be quite enormous; Brace yourselves!

He is such an idiot…..Now he states “he has not sold his soul”......And he won"t remove his lame sorry ass from the W.H. so “the President” and his family can move in and GET ON WITH THE PROGRAM…..Has there ever been such a sorry excuse for a human being as “ole mister bullshit”?....If any one has a better candidate PLEASE LET US ALL KNOW!!!!!!

There’s much railing against the UAW in that the high cost of labor is making the US auto industry less competitive then their foreign counterparts and they are asking the UAW for give backs.  It may make more sense to force the the foreign car makers to unionize, give those workers the same benefits now provided to the UAW which would raise the prices of Toyota and Honda $5,000 to $10,000 and immediately make them competitive with the big three.  In that way there is no need for the bailout.

Thanks W!!!!
It will be the only thing I will ever say good about you…but It was one that will count for something.
You admin is still the Worst in American History, but at least not in World history (although close, Third only after Nero and the Hitler)
As Kings of Old would do when wanting to show ‘mercy’ I’ll support your quick execution for War Crimes, Treason and Crimes against humanity….something I will still oppose for Cheney,rumsfeld and Wolfowitz- Slow painful and inhumane is as good as it gets for them.

The Republican Party is a house divided that will soon fall apart. Imagine Anarchists who want help from Government.

Relax my outraged friends, this is just the George W Bush way of “spreading the wealth around”. As the President-has-been might say, it’s all about the legacy thing.

This has not one goddamn thing to do with capitalism, it is all and everything to do with the whole plot of grand larceny to reward those that benefitted from w & dick’s disasterous 8 years of criminal possession of the presidency. Why would anyone even think different with the plethra of these ‘white house’ sponsored bailouts to businesses that in a real capitalist system would have failed. Oh, just another $17,400,000,000.00 dollars which I am sure is sneaking more reward money out of the original $700,000,000,000.00 that is now supposedly tied up in the approval of congress to ‘spread the wealth’ for w & dick supporters. And oh, again, I bet any accountable plans to show cause for the bailout will most likely read like a story out of disney land. Once hooked up to that money IV, getting them off of it will be almost impossible. Short and simple the taxpayer is to pay for failed private corporations to do buisness as usual. And most glaringly, where the hell is pelosi? This seems to be going down behind her back yet she approves evidenced by her silence.
