I'm back on the proposed bailout of the auto
companies today, because I don't think we
should be giving these dunderheads any dough.
For example, the current CEO of GM, Rick
Wagoner, has presided over 73 billion dollars
in losses since 2005. GM has lost six percent
of its market share, and experienced a stock
decline of 95 per cent.
Usually, you don't have to have numbers that
bad to get fired.
If Wagoner were an NFL coach he would have
been gone long ago, anywhere it seems, but
Detroit, which is currently 0-12. I don't know what
you have to do to get fired at General Motors,
where the executives think they're on the right track.
They have no plan, but they're on the right track.
Riiiighttt!
And I'm not excluding Ford and Chrysler here,
because they don't have a plan either. Neither
do the current recipients of billions and billions
of taxpayer dollars, the latest of which is Citigroup,
which is getting its bandaids and burn cream as
we speak.
But not one executive at any of these companies
has lost his job. No, taxpayer money is still paying
these pigs exorbitant salaries for running their
companies straight into the pig flop.
All you hear all day long is that it isn't their fault.
And it is not the fault of Congress, because God
knows they aren't smart enough to deal with
numbers this big. I doubt whether there is anyone
in either chamber who could give a rational
explanation for what's going on.
But don't worry, Minnesota is probably going to
send Al Franken to Washington to fix the problems.
Remind me never to visit a place that is that stupid.
The thought of that little twerp standing in the Senate
makes me ill.
(Not that there aren't some real reprobates there
now, but Franken would take it to a new level.)
Don't back off your opposition to this auto bailout.
Let these imbeciles know how you feel. If you don't
you had better start reserving your place in line.
From the big saddle,
Jim Whelan
The Chairman of the Board
P.S. No! No! No!

On the Big 3 bailout issue, why the public relations ruse having the CEO's drive to D.C. to submit to an inquisition by Congressman who fly around in private jets on behalf of a bankrupt country. Make sense?
