The cave-in Bush. These people don't deserve a dime of taxpayer's money with the crappy UAW running the companies.

They have to sell the POS’s to be viable.

Just how many Suburbans and Yukons can the Government buy/lease ??

Let them collapse!

That’s the ONLY way they’ll learn anything.

They won’t change a thing because they got bailed out.

We will be back here again very soon....

This isn’t their last bailout.

There´s a fundamental lack of understanding in Washington regarding the source of all of their “funding.”

Ugh, if they are “viable” why would they need another $4 billion. Maybe Bush meant to say buyable?

Let’s see... how many more hours will I have to work to pay my share of bailing out the UAW?

Congress and President Bush just don’t get it.

The American people DON’T want this bailout.

It’s like 100 to 1 against it.

But yet they do it anyways.

They will pay a price at the polls.

This is like attempting to save the Titanic by draining the ocean.
