Auto Three

It looks like there's a deal made for the 3 to get some $. They may also get a Car Czar appointed by President Bush. Someone who will watch over as they create new blueprints or business plans and submit them on or before (a phrase always used in regards to the government deadlines) March 31, 2009.

A Car Czar appointed by Bush. Does anyone else realize that if this fails, the only fingerprints left will be those of George W? Once again, it will all be a Republican problem.

The only voices crying out against more $ for the UAW - that's what it's for - are Republicans. When this large chunk of change is not enough, it will be a Republican problem. Once again the Dems will be sitting pretty on the side of the unions. It's those bad Republicans and Capitalist Pigs who caused the ruin of the U.S. auto industry.

The UAW will suck the bridge $ up in a few months. They have made no concessions. They don't have to until Chapter 11s are filed. It will come to that.

Plus, the government is dictating to the automakers what type of cars to build and what emission standards and fuel standards must be met. It's no longer a free market.

In a free market, the maker produces what the consumer wants. Unless gas goes back to $4/gallon, we the consumer want our trucks, our SUVs, our minivans, and comfortable road cars like Buick and Cadillac.

I want all Republicans in Congress and the President to spell out in detail why they are against this. I guess Bush is not against this but all the rest who are need to speak out loudly. Go on the record. Be the voice of reason and forecast the demise of this plan.

'til later
