Hummm.
This is total Bullshi’ite
Government Motors is up to something.
Obama is Stalin without the murders.
Gee, pretty soon the car parts manufacturers will leave Michigan. It is not like unemployment is high enough already. It is not like Ford, GM and Chrysler have already closed plants and Delphi laid off workers with its bankruptcy. Next Toyota parts manufacturers will be going north to Canada. Gee the FBI should go to DC and raid the Whitehouse. Go to Chicago and check out the obam house there and go to Hawaii and check that vault copy.
Believe it or not I am newbie on both Facebook and Twitter LOL! for 3 months now
“Sounds like what Obama is going to do is put Toyota under so much stress that they fail,”
Well he’s not going to crush them completely-after all, don’t those Taliban goons like rolling around in their Land Cruisers?/s
Isn’t this like the beginning of a plot to one of Tom Clancy’s novels.
Some young family gets killed due to a faulty gas tank in a Japanese car. We impose trade sanctions against Japan, which leads to a trade war, which eventually leads to a shooting war
I am watching it live and Toyota reps are making no sense.
Corvairs roll over? Ack. I have one of those. Never drive it, but now, maybe never will!
It is the UAW in the background.
A consortium between Government Motors and the Personal Injury Lawyer's Guild.
From the beginning, this targeting of Toyota has sickened me. This story confirms my suspicions that the unions and Obama are behind this sabotage to their more superior competitor, Toyota.
Indeed, and this is NOT SMART, being Japan has just recently become the largest holder of our debt! Is this guy trying to start another WW???
You’ve got to be kidding me? These commies are really pushing it to the wall aren’t they?
“The FBI didn’t raid anyone when Corvairs were rolling over.”
Back then, though, America was free/s
Was the Corvair REALLY an unsafe car, or the victim of “junk science”? Sure got Ralph Nader’s career going. BARF!!!
This thuggery is going to create a huge anti-American backlash in Japan. We’re running the US automobile market like a gang running the crack market.
Why are they there? BEcause of a recall? Happens all the time? Im so confused.
Very similar to the strategery behind Health Care Insurance Reform isn't it?
