I bought a Ford Escape Hybrid. The reason for choosing Ford was the same as Chris’ reason.

Good ad. Expect pushback from the socialist Unions and GM.

I saw the commercial...I am glad Ford did not get the same style bailout as GM...but Ford’s new commercial only invites people to refute their claim.

Ford Motor Credit did get a bailout from TARP :(

Ford is slated to get a BILLION plus loan from Porkulus, for energy efficiency improvements :(

I’d rather buy Ford than GM...but they are not completely uninvolved in the bailouts.

Does Ford employee UAW thugs? If so, then I won’t buy from them either.

Yep, we purchased a Ford last year, largely because they didn’t take the bail out.

This guy is solid. To be able to speak intelligently like this after being ambushed is great. I hope FORD run these ads all over the place and I was a GM guy for decades.

Why did they discontinue the Grand Marquis?

The guy is obviously a racist since he is being critical of an 0bama policy.

Read my tagline. Toyota trucks are made in San Antonio, Texas.

Then FORD should expect some federal no-knock raids for BS charges that David Axelrod pulls out of his....

I'm pretty sure Ford management would be happy to see their p&m workers decertify the UAW.

It’s your duty to report him to attackwatch. It’s what any good German, er, I mean, American would do.

Toyota doesn’t make a Shelby GT500 so I bought one from Ford.

Wait for Zero’s oppo research to swing into action. If Chris has any skeletons in his closet (or even if he doesn’t), we’ll soon hear of them. Remember what happened to Joe Wurzelbacher.

Chris for President!

I am passing on my vehicle to my son when he turns 16 and was eyeing the US made non union BMW X5 to replace the pre-Obamamotors Escalade which I refuse to purchase again despite my love for it.

But I might just have to get a Nav instead. And it’s bigger so it will probably piss off libs so much more. :-)

Ford dropped the Mercury brand after the 2011 model year. I liked the Mariner, an upmarket Escape.
