This just makes me sick at my stomach...

Take careful not of the precendents they're seeting, and record them.

When we regain power -- use those precedents to drive those who established them OUT of the country forever.

THEN close the barn door.

“To summarize: despite the claim that each dealership was evaluated at the individual market level, at least four major, connected Democrat contributors will end up with more dealerships in the aggregate than when they started.

These four Democrat dealer groups own 40 Chrysler dealerships. One of those owners is already in all sorts of legal and financial hot water with suppliers and customers...

Yet they will likely end up with 42 dealerships after the shuffling (maybe more). And their competition is gutted in every single market! Strange!

And, oddly enough, the Car Czar’s wife is a former Democrat fundraiser... not just an Obama fundraiser...

Geez, what are the odds of that happening in forty different locations?”

Only names and addresses are on the spreadsheet, no donation amounts.

If the fact that the Obama administration fired CEOs, closed dealers, rewarded unions with ownership while screwing bond holders, etc., what difference will it make if the closing choices were totally political in nature?

You think the Republicans will do anything? The media? No.

At the point where we have a government drunk enough on its own power to craft the deals we are seeing now, there are no more rules left to break.

The line in the sand is flowing down hill with the rest of us.

Yep, and GM dealers are next. America, you better wake up!!! If not it will be over very soon.

Glenn Beck needs to know about this. And Hannity. And, yes, even O'Reilly.

And Rush. And Malkin and Coulter. And every Republican Congressman and woman.

A sample size of 50, however, is not the statistical stuff from which small margins of error are derived...been years and years since I took statistics, but this would seem to be a fairly simple statistical analysis using - I think - the Chi-square method if someone had the time to go through that spread-sheet the article mentioned - compare the figures in cells Repub donations-open/ Repub-donations-closed/ Dem-donations-open/ Dem-donations-closed - using all of the available data rather than a skewed small sample makes it much more difficult to dispute the findings......

This is just the beginning, and it won’t be limited to banks and car companies..

[exit82]

Taxpayer money is being used to keep these car companies going.

Dem operatives keep the Dem donating dealers open, but make sure to close the GOP donating dealers.

This eliminates competition for the Dem dealers, while destroying a source of revenue to the local and national GOP.

And it is happening in broad daylight!

I have called my Senators and Congressman and asked them what Constitutional authority does Zero, Geithner and Rattner have to do any of this?

The TARP legislation mentions nothing about car companies, and the White House cannot spend money without the approval of Congress.

It is becoming clear that the Dems in Congress have no intention of following their oath of office.

Thank you for all that work...bookmarked for later dot-connecting. If this question is answered in your post I will find it - if not....can you or anyone tell us where all the money already given to GM has gone? Is any of it accounted for if so by whom and where can you check up on it.

How many of you think that Obama is a Fascist? How many think we've been robbed? Thanks.
