HEY, this is America, not Russia. I guess people didn’t want to support GOVERNMENT MOTORS i.e. Obama’s Volt Car, because they want the competition to get rid of high union wages, vast benefits for the labor bosses, and the cost to tax payers already, why woudn’t Americans be biased. Are they STUPID..

“...GM could get those standards waived.”

Though this is satire, it is true that the government did not collect taxes from its motor company last year in order to show a bogus “profit.” If Ford didn’t pay its taxes, the IRS would slap a huge fine on it. That is Obama “fairness.”

Oh! NO. NO. We think that it was great fun!

Look at all the fun.

President Obama’s UAW bailout threw tens of thousands of nonunion autoworkers under the bus since September 2010. It’s the real-life horror story of some 20,000 white-collar workers at Delphi

The gutting of white-collar worker pensions at Delphi, GM’s biggest parts supplier, is a teachable moment about UAW power and Obama administration callousness... and what fun it was to screw the bond holders!

Obama's UAW bailout threw tens of thousands of nonunion autoworkers under the bus. It's the ongoing horror story of some 20,000 white-collar workers . . . .

Hey GM and Obama, why don't you start screaming RACISTS! Everyone knows that the workers that got screwed would not say a word if the president was a white dude.

Are they STUPID..

STUPID is not the right word. Like intelligent Dems, they are not stupid, but monumentally devoid of sound judgement!

Satire or not, don't tick off your customers.
Unethical is unethical even when the gov't does it.
Big wad of taxpayer cash to unions, as well as company control, shafting preferred investors, ousting perfectly good dealerships...
Red-blooded American Chevy owners saw it and did not like it one bit.
I have a Chevy truck but I won't buy another as long as GM = Government Motors.
Aren't the lefties all for boycotts? Don't like being on the receiving end? TOUGH!

See the Mideast every day, in your Chevrolet. Watch out for the rounds buzzing overhead... In my best Doris Day singing voice.

“...GM official pointed to the Supreme Court ruling that allowed government to mandate the purchase of health insurance, saying it could just as easily mandate the purchase of a car. The revenue from this forced sale could fund the giving away of vehicles to the poor. “

Isn’t that really the next step? That fascistic act is too easy to imagine and then see its fruition in reality.

FART Rover? FARTR
