If Comcast pulled the spot and you haven’t received comment from GM, isn’t it somewhat fraudulent to claim that GM was behind the ad being pulled? After all, this is Comcast, and they’ve been known to do some strange things. Hell, maybe they’re afraid they could be involved in some sort of lawsuit for libel or something if they let such an ad run on their network.

I’m never going to buy a GM or Chrysler/Fiat product nor do I own any so I don’t give a Barney Frank about their legal battles or liabilities. I just wish we all had a say in giving them a tractor trailer sized loan to keep the UAW employed.

I’m sure no trial lawyers are involved in funding this lobbying group.

Government Motors vrs Trial Lawyers: Nothing more than two agressive scorpions in a bottle. Entertaining? Sure. But in the end, who effin’ cares?

Whats that saying about a leopard never changes its spots. They are simply doing what they have always done. Which is also why GM ultimately will fail yet again this time liquidation.

In a bankruptcy, creditors get in line with everyone else.

By rearranging or changing that long tested rule of law, what they are really saying is we want the Federal Government to pay their claims. Of course, Obama already did that by moving the UAW to the front of the feeding line.

We have to remember that the crux of GM management that was in place before Ch11 (you know the guys who mismanaged them to the point they are there) and the crux of GM management during and after Ch11 are the same. Or if it walks like a duck…

This is why the Ch. 11 has to be on high speed. They need to be in and out before the public can get smart to the scam.

GM’s biggest problem is the Chrysler Ch. 11.

The watchdogs saw Chrysler’s train wreck, didn’t have time to mobilize, but they took lots of notes.

Now they have a bigger target and they’ve had time to organize…

Let loose the dogs of war!

Despite what appears to me to be negativity on TTAC’s part, I applaud your efforts to hold the executives of “The People’s Car Company” responsible for their promises.

Being that they’re government-owned (hopefully, a temporary “marriage”), they should be more open and accountable to their owners (aka “potential customers”)
