Auto czar Steve Rattner, 56, a top Democratic fundraiser, is an old hand at leveraging political influence into profit, as shown by the business dealings of his hedge fund, Quadrangle Group.
Here’s the arrangement: You pay your taxes, the Obama administration funnels some of the money to Chrysler, whose profits enrich the UAW, which in turn funds Obama’s re-election.

Our system of government should just be renamed “Pay for Play”.
Test for honesty, ingeniousness, and competence:
Is it from the Obamaloon administration?
If yes - it’s none of the above.
If no, will need additional input.
Is it from the MSM, Harvard, or any of the Ivy League idiot production centers?
If yes, none of the above.
If no - (you get the point, just step to the next ill-educated lib group)
Rattner is just another capo in this administration!
Exactly! John McCain campaign finance means regulate all REPUBLICAN sources of contributions but not democrat ones that are supported by government, like UAW. Thanks you GWB for saving UAW too, and Hannity who called for the bailout too.
There was one freeper who was claiming republicans could 'get the Michigan 'vote if they bailed out UAW. That's like the 'get the mexican vote' with amnesty.
That is only possible if anyone buys one of the POS Chrysler products...and i for one will never buy GM nor Chrysler....go FORD!
or you’ll get the ‘Jewish vote’ if you support Israel, or you’ll get the Black vote’ if you send Billions to Africa...
Is it true that Ford has rejected any bailout money?
RE :”That is only possible if anyone buys one of the POS Chrysler products...and i for one will never buy GM nor Chrysler....go FORD!”
What if there is a picture of Obama on the hood that says “Change you can believe in” ??
The irony is democrats want us to give up driving, idiot UAW members dont realize this.
Yes...so far although the unfair advantage the gov will try to give GM and Chrysler would be determined to force FORD to need it too...in the long run to ruin!
I will never buy an Chrysler Obamamobile.
RE :”or you’ll get the ‘Jewish vote’ if you support Israel”
This will make the human rights Move-on supporters upset.
Here’s the arrangement: You pay your taxes, the Obama administration funnels some of the money to Chrysler, whose profits enrich the UAW, which in turn funds Obama’s re-election.

And what if about 75 million just said pi** off and didn’t pay their taxes?
would be determined to force FORD to need it too...in the long run to ruin!

I have a feeling NO republican would now touch a GM auto. Therefore Ford gets the business, they realize that by not taking bailout money boosted their sales like crazy, ford thrives, GM dies. RIP
