Its a waste of money bailing out these weasels. They''''ve had a CENTURY to plan for better cars...better ALTERNATIVE FUEL cars. And they ignored the future. Again: GM CRUSHED thousands of the highly acclaimed EV1. Citizens LOVED it. Say NO to the bailout of Detroit.

The Sitting President has said he is NOT FOR AN AUTO BAILOUT. The only thing he has done right.

One, I would like to here what the Sitting President has to say about this bailout of the Big Three.

Two, in specific language, what can the American tax payer expect in return for the "proposed" loan to the auto industry.

Three, when has it NOT been apparent that the UAW has little or no regard for the American consumer, the tax payers, in terms of the product and price point of their product.

Last, how is it that horrific greed and stupid management are rewarded with special little or no interest credit lines???

Herbert Hoover did the same thing in 1930 - bailed out the banks, but let all other companies go bankrupt. Here we ago again. Only difference this time is the ordinary people cheering on today''s Herbert Hoovers.

This just goes to show how American media has favored Obama... If they do not favor Obama then why aren''''t they saying anything about this?

I beleive that is the point that some people are trying to make but the MEDIA isn''t listening. They were so gung-ho about him being elected that it doesn''t matter that he hasn''t actually taken office yet. I have never, in all my years of voting, seen a Presidebt-elect get the media coverage that Obama has received. While we may not agree with the way Bush has handled things, allow the man to serve out his term and quit calling for his resignation (certain editorialist have made this request).

The World is not Black and White, yes or no, but many shades of gray!

Wow! Just think folks where we''''d be if Sir LIES-A-Lot and his ENTIRE PARTY have voted "Present" when they took us down the path of "TRICKLE DOWN"!! ROFLMAO Then think if that same INCOMPETENT LOSER of a PRESIDENT and his MORE INCOMPETENT PARTY had vote "Present" when the Gramn/Leahy/Bliley Act came up! No MELT DOWN, NO DEBT, NO DEFICIT! Where were you bootlickers back then?? ROFLMAO

You and spinproof mi-understood my post. themasses10 was mocking the use of "present"; I was stating the obvious, he no longer can vote present, as he and his administration are going to be setting policy for the next 4 years. As Truman was once quoted, "the buck stops here", and that now applies to president elect Obama. BTW, I support his presidency, so back off a little guys.

Boy...you Bush-lovers are slick, you try so hard to suck Obama into this marass of failure on the part of the Bush administration.

OBAMA IS NOT THE PRESIDENT YET!!!!

If Obama even suggests to do something different then Bush, then you guys would criticize and say ''Obama''s plan wouldn''t work''.

You can''t have it both ways.
