It was a shame that our government had to make up some story about Toyota and run them in front of congress to get dressed down on a bogus recall during that exact same period. Ever wonder why?

That's what the law is for. They wouldn't have shut down and put people out of work. That's a leftist myth.Because our government is not set up to do that.
GM and Chrysler should have gone into Bankruptcy proceedings like any other company does.
But no, this President decided the law doesn't matter -- there are unions to pay off!
Are there any right wingers out there who actually think the auto bail out was a bad idea. Or better yet, are there any right wingers out there who actually are saying it didnt work?
If so, please explain. I dont see how anyone could think this but please, go ahead.
Left wingers, please join me with thanking the president on making another good call. Thank you sir for not allowing this country to go down the path of another great depression. Wheh, thank God someone not like Bush won and will win again in 2012.
Of course it was a bad idea.
It undermined the rule of law.
It perpetuated inefficient industries
It expanded government power beyond anything the Constitution authorized.
Why would anyone think it was good?
Because it saved the jobs of working people...
Not that you know any of those... I doubt you ever get out of the trailer park.
So what? They're not Democrat special interest groups.That's what the law is for. They wouldn't have shut down and put people out of work. That's a leftist myth.GM and Chrysler should have gone into Bankruptcy proceedings like any other company does.

Good idea or not you're heaping your praise on the wrong person. The bailouts were Bushes idea.
As far as it being good or bad haven't you gotten the answer in the last 3 years?
Christ this diversion shit is getting old.

Bought my last truck in 2008 a Ford Ranger three guesses why I went with Ford,Good deal. My Family owns a Mustang and Sport Trac...Great vehicles.

My 16k 2012 Ford Focus gets 38 mpg, why do I need a Government Motors 40k hybrid that gets 45mpg ....lol... at 4.00 a gallon it will take me 384 years to make up the difference ..lol...
Besides, I lost 8k in Gm stock when the went belly up, I got no bailout for that.
Chrysler was bailed out once before.....
Chrysler and GM should have been left alone and failed... all the workers and suppliers would have gone to Ford, who make better products and has better management anyways....
So yes, using my tax money for auto bailouts was stupid.

Because our government is not set up to do that.The real question is, why don't we do what the Japanese and Germans do, which is treat our car companies as an extention of our national pride and strength. Volkswagon and Nissan are in hip deep with their respective governments.

And why not?
Oh, wait, I know.
"The Founding Fathers, people so noble that they shit marble, (when they weren't beating their slaves, that is) never conceived of such a notion, therefore we should never, ever do it. I just loves me some Founding Fathers, and won't entertain any new ideas in the 240 years since them!"
Realize that for the right the success of GM is in of itself bad. It violates conservative economic dogma where government and business must never mix; indeed, for the right, the success of GM is worse than the company going out of business, because the ancient free market force of the invisible hand was interfered with its economic blasphemy.
And the core motive of conservative opposition to the bail out is purely partisan, they resent the presidents success, and if a republican president had done the same thing, republicans would consider the bail out wonderful.

So you're whining because you gambled on a company whose cars you wouldn't buy (not that I ever thought you had 8K to throw around on a stock bet) because the priority was keeping the company in business...

The GM stock was the ex-wife's idea, i had 8k in Ford too, but sold it for 36k a few years ago ..... so still ahead of the game.....
Why would you think I did not have 8k to throw around? Did you think I was one of those Libs on Welfare or my 2012 Ford cost more than my House or something
