Oh wow, that’s a great spoof.
I like the part where the narrator goes “leaner, greener, or at least angrier employees”.
This would be funnier if it wasn’t some d-bag quoting a bunch of lame rhetoric.
My biggest laugh of the day.
That was refreshingly honest. Probably the most honest thing I’ve heard in a long time.

Honest???
There was nothing “honest” about that.
In both the original and this spoof, I come away with one big image: GM is going to fist me.
afabbro:
I wasn’t going to say it.
Yup…It’s the big bad oil company…That was just stupid and childish….Maybe next time have a spoof from a non-liberal.
The spoof and the site were created by a burned GM owner or maybe employee. Who knows? The domain registry info is locked up tighter than a rusted Cavalier lug nut (I’ve had personal experience). Fair use, parody, all protected speech. It’s funny how he’s labeled a liberal . . . no, pathetic.
From what I gather at the website, the “we killed public transportation” line deals with the GM streetcar conspiracy, which happened so long ago that it’s akin to doing an anti-Toyota ad using pictures of Yamamoto. Maybe it’s time to let that go.
The “we’re committed to the oil companies” line looks to be from GM killing the EV1. Although Wagoner has admitted that stopping the development of the EV1 was a big mistake, I don’t think GM squashed it because of orders from the oil companies. I figure that if the big-money oil companies and GM were such pals, GM wouldn’t have needed to declare C11 this week.
Other than those two things, it was alright.
I laughed, then I cried. Then I laughed a lot more.
