Lol, Instapundit had to be updated, too. It's no accident Rush was on about it today: in his passive-aggressive way he absolutely *was* calling for one as was the crazy RW radio woman: dont be fooled, this is an orchestrated plan.
The Detroit Bureau reports that an idea seems to be picking up some cachet on the right-wing blogs and in talk radio: Fighting the "Government Motors" bailout by boycotting the company. Most of it so far is limited to relatively little-known writers, but two big names have picked up on it: Hugh Hewitt, who wants to save free enterprise -- and Rush Limbaugh, who wants anything President Obama does to fail, and is urging his listeners to help push towards that goal.
"In the effort to reverse this lurch beyond the farthest left fringe of previous Democratic statist urges, individual Americans have a role to play. They have to say no to GM products and services until such time as the denationalization occurs," says Hugh Hewitt. He acknowledges that this is a serious step that could hurt people currently working for GM: "But there isn't any alternative, every dollar spent with GM is a dollar spent against free enterprise. Every car or truck purchased from Government Motors is one not purchased from a private car company that competes fairly against all other car companies."
Sorry, that doesnt even say that Rush is supporting a boycott.. Again, do you not know the difference between discussing a call for a boycott, and actually supporting a boycott? Hell Rushs biggest sponsor is GM, why the hell would he support boycotting a company that pays his $400 MILLION contract.. That would be rediculously stupid..
Rush Limbaugh has called for a boycott of GM to spite Barack Obama!
How can any sensible person (liberal or conservative) NOT see this Lunatic for what he is....A rambling blind one-sided cry baby!
How the heck do you wish more job losses and more heartache for Americans just to stick it to the President?
I'm sorry you lose all respect and credibility when all you stand by is that everything George W Bush did was great and every single thing Obama does or has done is evil and the worst thing for America....
C'mon!
Anyone care to explain the rationale behind this insanity?
No one needs to call for a boycott of GM. With majority government ownership, GM will die from the inside. Think GM quality has sucked in the past? Just get ready. GM can reorganize all it wants and GM can be Obama's toy.....the writing is on the wall for GM's future and it isn't pretty.

Since your obviously BLIND to the point that you dont care about ACCURACY, and then you want to talk about craziness...
He's pushing it passive-aggressively, as is his vile style. He's promoting it and I'll bet you he talks about it tomorrow, too. Also Faux will have spokespeople for it on.
Location: I currently exist only in a state of mind. one too complex for geographic location.

You dont think the government will encourage them to make competitive products and run a tighter ship?
