Giving money to Wagoner and co. is like putting a fox in charge of the chicken coup. The whole idea really brings images of pigs, swill and feeding throughs to mind. I do hope that severe and I do mean SEVERE conditions come with any bailout for the sake of the US tax payer. The fact that the likes of Wagoner can do such an abysmal job for so many years and then ask for a bailout shows that he has a neck like a jockey’s arse.

Fire, aim, ready at it’s best!

Any member of congress who approves of a loan guarantee/bailout without insisting that no member of top management receives a salary greater than that of the president of the united states is a traitor.

Any citizen who VOTES for any of the above should be deported permanently. This is nuts. N-V-T-S, Nuts!

Wouldnt it be easier and smarter to just give the $100 billion they are going to waste all in all to someone to just start a brand new American auto company that is RUN PROPERLY with competent management. Or simply use that money to send all the out of work auto workers from Detriots death to Harvard. What a collasal waste of money, stupid pols always flushing our money down the toilet.

For that amount of money we are going to dump into these clowns we could do a real dent into retooling our infastructure to be all electric AND get money to startups to get those electric cars to customers. Every day I lose more and more faith in this countries future.

What? a paltry one-time $50b for the late “big 3″?
Give me an Ultramatic break. The check-kiteing brown-shoe pols will just place an extra line item in the budget every year labeled “Detroit”.

Detroit is just the canary in the coal mine for the USA.

What’s this? Detroit might need more than the $25B, err, $50B they said they needed? I’m shocked – SHOCKED I say!

Let’s just call it $500B and a bridge to nowhere and be done with it.

Yeah, right! And RuPaul is a weightlifter……(!)

RuPaul does have nice musculature.

I can’t believe I typed that.
