Obama: Government will now decide where cars should be built

It’s my understanding that if you make too much money - you know, if you’re ‘rich’ - you don’t get the tax break. Am I correct?

He also referred to “Our Fleet” needs to be updated. You can take older less efficient Cars in and trade for new efficient ones.

I thought the government fleet of Cars were the ones running around the country with Gov GSA plates. Are my Car/Our Cars a part of Obama’s Fleet?

I thought this Clown taught Constitutional Law. I’m sure today’s takeover wasn’t in any US Constitution that I am familiar with. I wonder which Constitution gave him this authority.

Oh for Pete’s sake...enough already!! This deifying of the man..if there is such a word...is getting a little bit over the top...Only one Messiah (Jesus) and he must be just shaking his head at all this hype

"Yes, there will be cars —— just.......no gas.....hee hee."

Takeover of the energy industry tops the list of priorities per Black Caucus leader Rep. Marxine Waters (D-Watts).

Is that Charlie Rangel?

I don’t know
They don’t know

This whole administration is just winging it as they go. They have no idea what they are doing and now Bud Fox running GM. LOL

In corporate efficiency ratings (something Obama would know nothing about) they would be rated as ‘out-of-control’.

Half baked ideas are thrown out and then rescinded the next day. Plans/projects change daily/hourly and then are dropped altogether.

Bottom line is these are not educated tempered professionals. They are left wing loons governing out childish naive emotions.

It’s a mess and they better get it under control. There is a reason professionals get paid so much, and it is not GREED as Bammer will soon find out. lol

Also, check out the pic on the white house page with the GM announcement. This halo bit is getting old.

I have a sneak of what is coming next.

GM (Government Motors) is finished. So is Chrysler.

As people get madder and madder about this outrage they will boycott GM and it's products just like gun owners boycotted Smith & Wesson. The fact GM will now be required to manufacture increasingly "green" vehicles and vehicles nobody wants or likes and less trucks and SUVs, it will make it worse.

Unfortunately, we no longer live in a free market.

Therefore, the way Government Motors will survive is the Nazis will drive all the other companies out of business or unionize them and control their product lines.

Our Founding Fathers are spinning in their graves today. America is dying with barely a wimper.

We are all Kulaks now.

“Obama IS mentally ill AND IS a narcissist.” - in my opinion.

What can we do to end this destruction of America?

The Resident does not know how to read financial statements. GM has an unfunded balance sheet liabilities, pension and healthcare obligations exceeding $217 billion. That is what it will take to bail out GM. Also, GM’s revenue is bs. They recognize sales revenue when the vehicle is transported to the dealer. We all know how many lots are full of unsold cars. GM is a sham and cannot be saved even by the Resident Dictator in Chief. Rick tried to take GM to bankruptcy now but the Resident would not let him do it.

I remember back in the day, when you went to buy a new car the lots only had so many demo models on hand. You had to order the one you wanted if they didn't have a demo to match and usually they wouldn't sell the demo until the end of the model year and then at a discount.

If you wanted, say a Ford Mustang, you specified the color after looking at available colors, you ordered the engine size(if they came in different sizes), the interior, power windows, seating arrangements, type of seats. All, of course, depending on what options were available for that year and model. Then you held your breath and waited for the car to be delivered and picked it up from the dealer when it came in.

There were no overstocks etc and the car manufacturers based their sales on cars actually sold, not cars sent to dealers who had to dump them at years end or send them back!

POMPOUS AND ASININE.

Obama has never run anything in his life and is now deciding that he needs to “reward” blue states for electing him.

This is the end of the south as the federal pursestrings will punish those who did not vote for him.

TEXAS needs to leave NOW. Let’s have out own country.
