President Obama didnt want any advice from Congress on the decision to ask GM CEO Rick Wagoner to resign, according to Carl Levin (D), Michigans senior senator.
He didnt ask us about it, he informed us, Levin told reporters in a conference call Monday afternoon. The president said hed already decided.
Levin said he and three other lawmakers were informed of the decision in a phone call Obama made from the Oval Office. Obama told the members of Congress that Wagoner needed to resign so that the administration could show the public it was making an effort at a fresh start with helping the auto industry, according to Levin.

How do you like this Change Boys.
No, that’s a step down from Lord High Almighty Savior Obama. And you don’t want be caught dissing the old boy or it’s off with your head.
Why would any CEO choose to stay with all the government restraints that are being piled on each day ? Where are the Directors?
No, no, no, you sure don’t get it. The union bosses give him the orders, not the other way around.
Careful. You are being watched. This will be taken by Big Brother as an assassination threat. I’m serious. I really am. We have to start being careful about things like this.
To explain—they will use things like this to shut free speech on the internet down. They will brandish comments like this as actual assassination threats and conspiracies.
I’m series about this.
Well, it certainly wasn't intended as such. But, Barry can't keep thumbing his knows at people like Carl Levin and expect to get support when he needs it. Nancy Pelosi has already unequivocally stated that Bankruptcy is NOT an option for GM. Apparently Obama thinks otherwise.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't King Barry own GM?
and as owner, he can fire anyone he chooses.
0bama runs America. He is the government. He can fire anyone he wants at anytime, without asking permission. He is the boss, the big honcho, our very own Hitler.
If people like us don’t buy GM cars anymore ... what will save them from bankruptcy?
Apparently, an endless supply of taxpayer money.
The tyrant has already stated "Unions are part of the solution, not part of the problem".
I do not think it will take until the next election for a reaction to take place.
We do not have 2 years.
I have said since the inaugural (coronation) that within 6-months the wheels would fly off this administration. It looks like it will be sooner than I expected.
I will not be a good little “Dhemmi”. I promise, that I will not be a good little “Dhemmi”.
