CZAR? They aren’t very subtle, are they? I’d go lightly on the communist names if I was in power.
Time to get my old 1978 Camaro back on the road.
Forget this bailout and loans and crap, here's what you do, Promise that the Federal Government will guarnatee the warantees on the products of the companies that declare chapter 11. Let the ones that need to file Chap 11, get rid of their legacy costs, let them restructure and arise leaner and more competative.
This guarantee will get rid of the concern that a car company in Chap 11 will have a hard time selling vehciles, since now the government is assuring that parts and service will be available should the company go out of business.
If the company survives it costs the government nothing, if it fails it costs the government the balance of the warrantee claims on cars bought from them, that's it. Far cheaper and lower risk to the taxpayer and doesn't throw good money after bad.
Doesn't pander to the UAW, doesn't give tax money to companies to spend on plants overseas, etc etc etc.
DONE... but that practical solution will NEVER come out of DC.
RE : The final plan must be approved by Congress.
I havent heard too many elected republicans admitting they support this. Does Pelosi have the votes on her own with a few republicans from Michigan?
I wonder how many of these politicians who will vote for this auto bailout actually drive a car manufactured by the “big three”?
Laura Ingrahm is saying John Boehner signed onto UAW bailout. He also signed on with GWB to financial bailout that killed so many republicans seats, then gets re-elected as leader so he can pull this. Contact John with your feedback, is he a democrat mole ???

Paging John Galt...
Whose going to head the Unification Board?
A loan should be just that - a loan. The companies get a loan and they pay it back.
A loan with strings attached and a “car czar” is not a loan. It is a fascist takeover by the Democrats of American industry.
IIRC Hitler was the “car czar” of Germany designing the Volkswagen beetle.
Sig Heil! Maybe it’s Washington which is run by neo Nazis, and not those skinheads the media czars are constantly harping as dangerous...all this just to keep us distracted from the real and more seriously dangerous Nazis running DC?
The best man for the job - if he would consider it - would be Dick Cheney. He has the business experience as CEO of a “mega” corporation, the political knowledge and acumen, and the no-nonsense attitude needed to set standards of performance and make them stick.
If anyone has a better candidate, I’d like to know. And if anybody knows of anyone LESS likely to be offered the job, I’d like to know that, as well.

Ugh. The Republicans better not vote for this. They can hang this one around the Democrats' necks.
Oh Yeah, Nancy. Volcker did such a bang-up job investigating the Oil for Food debacle..
