"Though it was the former Republican President George W. Bush who launched the bailout of the struggling maker -- and rival Chrysler -- in late 2008, it was his successor, President Barack Obama, who took that effort to the next, far more costly level. "

Is that accurate? Didn't Obama ask Bush to give him a running start on this and approve what he (Obama) wanted and not make him wait until the inaugural? Not that Bush should have acceded, but it was Obama that was pushing this, it was not Bush's idea, IIRC.

I believe Bush wanted to bail out GM.

Obama bailed out the unions.
