...................Gutierrez has asked the automaker to end its probe immediately after the company said Tuesday that it “hadn’t ruled out fraud or malicious intent.”............

Yeah! Everyone wants to set his new car on fire, trash two others and his house, just to get even with AlGore and Chu’s investments in losers!

““The Karma was the origin of the fire, but what exactly caused that we don’t know at this time,” Baker told the news outlet.”


Bad Karma.......

“According to the news story, Gutierrez has asked the automaker to end its probe immediately after the company said Tuesday that it “hadn’t ruled out fraud or malicious intent.”.........

Why did he want the automaker to end its probe?

Actually, I think an INDEPENDENT probe WOULD be in order.

“Smelt” in this context is certainly archaic in American English and probably in British English.

Who would have dreamt it? I have seen “dreamt” become archaic in my lifetime, but I still say it.

Anybody buying a $100K electric car is probably a good little goose stepping liberal. Looks like his Karma just ran over his Dogma.

Many millions of stolen taxpayer (=Republican) earnings to Finland and democrat bribes for building the exploding cars Americans won’t build.

What chance do you think this company of repaying the $529 million loan it received from the Obama Administration?
