Thank GOD for a great President to care about American jobs!!
Dont forget, 6 months ago, under the idiot frat boy Bush, the Republican Party emphatically stated: DECLARE BANKRUPTCY
Under Republicans, these jobs would have disappeared and/or gone to China/Mexico.
Again, thank the LORD in Heaven we have Barack Obama at the helm and not John McCain or the last Prez., this one doesn't want to oversee failure like the past President!
Failure is inevitable and you are under the delusion the government actually has power to stop it.
Obama can now operate with the excuse "he is protecting the taxpayers interest" whilst having them build the cars he feels we should drive.
Of course the trons will buy it.
He's been President 4 months, GM is another enduring chapter of the Bush legacy.
And in FOUR months he's managed to "save" GM and then bankrupt it.. I'll give you one thing.. thats a record.
You also seem to not understand the difference between the Bush loan, and Obama, who DIRECTLY is responsible now for the bankrupting of GM. He took ownership, he took control, he took EQUITY, HE IS RESPONSIBLE for this failure..

And this justifies failure of the Obama administraion because?
Thanks conservatives for leaving America broke and chock full of flag draped coffins from the Middle East.
There is plenty of blame to go around from both parties. If you don't see that, you've fallen into the trap the politicos want you in. look beyond party lines.

So you're not much better than the people who blamed all Bush's woes on Clinton. Once again, it is both parties causing the problems. our government is not being run by and for the people anymore. by continuing to blame one party over the other, you continue to ignore the man behind the curtain.
GM got itself into the bind they are in, I have ZERO sympathy for their plight. So, now they are going to have to reorganize and show a viable plan of restructure, suprise surprise that is how ALL bankruptcy settlements work. the government gave them truck loads of our money and has a vested interest at this point, in the long run the government will step aside, watch. I will be sure to point back to these rediculous threads when that happens, how do you prefer your crow?

I'm actually listening to him, are you? If not, educate yourself by doing so. I dont blindly excuse anyone, including Obama, but right now the American people are investing in General Motors.
Am I supposed to somehow believe in rescuing crooked bankers like Pres. Bush did, but not believe in rescuing hard working Americans and an American manufacturing icon? Why would I want GM to fail? Why would anyone?
Republicans would, I know, but they have no problem wasting hundreds of billions killing people in the Middle East. Make sense?
Please.

I have always bought GM, but GM is gone, whatever it was before, it is completely gone now.
I'll never buy anything GM again, I'll buy Ford, until 0bama forces them to go bankrupt, and then I'll buy from South Korea or Japan, but never again from GM.
