Can we all agree that the discussed bailout of Big Auto is actually anything but? A failing business model will continue to fail, no matter how much money you cram into it.
But the United Auto Workers could use the money. The state of Michigan could use the money. Reliable voters who reliably vote Democratic.
Tens and twenties okay, fellas?
GOP bailout stooge to Cavuto: “It’s not your money”
Behold the hubris of an entrenched Republican congressman shilling for the auto bailout. His name is Rep. Joe Knollenberg (R-Michigan) and you’ll be happy to know that he lost his re-election bid.
Attention, Republicans obsessed with “re-branding” the party and crafting appealing messages to win back voters. Here’s your textbook example of how not to act and what not to say if you want to restore credibility to conservatism.
The phrase “tipping point” is overused, but I fear we have reached a literal tipping point. The mass of people who now expect the government to do for them outweighs the mass of people who wish the government would do without them. Even hitherto conservatives now elbow aside the rest of the swarming pack at the public teat.
Where’d my country go?
The automobile industry still thrives in America. Just not in Detroit. Make of that what you will.
PS: At least someone is thinking straight.
