In a bankruptcy, BOTH the bad management AND the strangling unions would be out on their ears.

Leave the selection of the new guy to the board or the shareholders, definitely. I agree.
Levin should be willing to go also. We need a comprehensive solution.
But this problem didn't start with the current CEO's either.....and heck, much of the current mess is on the shoulders of those bums in Congress that now want to punish the guy's they helped put under??
Makes about as much sense as electing Obama POTUS....
Here’s an idea for Sen Levin.
If you’re going to push for this, make the legislation such that citizens can invest private money alongside the gov’t funds.
Any elected official voting for or supporting this measure must put a substantial portion of their personal assets in the plan and disclose their level of investment.
How about it congress? You’re telling us you think this is a good idea. Prove it. Put YOUR money where your mouth is.
Seems like the Dumbo-rats have also done enough to have this shoe fit their collective feet!
A bankruptcy appointee will handle the job at 1% of the salary.
Nimrods.
How about Levin and Granholm resign, along with all of the union leadership, and then let the companies figure out what to do next, but without any “bail-out” from the feds (all of US).
I’d say the companies need to go through Chapter 11 re-organization, void all contracts, etc. and figure out what they can afford to do going forward. Seems like they are turning out some good vehicles, but their economic model is completely broken and not competitive.
Right after he s**tcans Barney Frank.
Who is going to lead them? How much talent does it take to run a company into the ground? Just grab someone off the street and they could do the same thing.
As an old man once told me, “When someone gives you money, they’re gonna’ tell you how to spend it.”
It’s like a damn teenager, won’t take no for an answer. Nags with a hundred “different” scenarios to get their way.
Franklin Raines isn’t busy. I’m sure he’d make a fine CEO of Ford. They could even re-brand the company, and call it Frankie Mae Ford.
Bawney Fwank and Chris Dodd should resign for screwing up the FMs so badly! D’ya think?
And I would be in favor of firing Levin and the rest of his cronies who have shafted us year after year and in ways and amounts that would make private businesses look like five and dimers.
Maybe Levin should just shutup.
Levin is part of the problem that got the big three where they are today.
Maybe, but it would do far more good if the UAW members would resign.
He should resign for trying to bail them out.
