"Election have consequences. "

There appears to be a side to the Chrysler bankruptcy that has the look of an ugly partisanship not seen in this town since Tricky Dick was in the White House composing his enemies list and checking it twice every night while watching the evening TV newscast.
Bloggers on the Right side of the Blogosphere are up in arms over data suggesting that President Barack Obama’s White House auto industry potentates are targeting for closure Chrysler dealers with records of contributing either to Republicans like Sen. John McCain or to other Democrats in the 2008 presidential primary.
Posts at RedState, Reliapundit, American Thinker, Gateway Pundit, Joey Smith and Doug Ross pointed initially at the remarkable number of closed Chrysler dealerships whose owners happen to have been contributors to Obama opponents, mainly Republicans.
But those observations were all couched with important qualifiers, particularly that all conclusions were necessarily preliminary, pending completion of a comprehensive analysis of the political contributions by all closed Chrysler dealership owners had been done and comparison of those with contributions by dealers who are not being closed.
That said, when multiple dealers who have been closed are found to have contributed millions to Republicans and mere hundreds to Obama, the serious number-crunching cannot be completed too soon.
Meanwhile, Ross seems to be ground zero for this story, and I encourage you to check out his multiple updates at http://directorblue.blogspot.com/2009/05/red-alert-did-campaign-contributions.html.

"Election have consequences. "
“We won.”
Thank you Mark Tapscott, CPAC’s Conservative Journalist of the Year! This reminds me of the showdown with Dan Rather and the GWB fraud...the Moron Media is completely in the tank for the commies.
This would not be surprising in the least. I’m a bit gobsmacked that they tipped their hand so soon, tho’...SSZ
“Nice car dealership you got here, pally...wanna keep it nice and pretty?” </Guido>
All of the effective reporting occurs in the blogosphere anymore.
And what did Nixon do with this 'enemies list'? Nothing.
Whereas Clinton used the IRS to audit his political foes. And Obama closes down their businesses.
The warm & fuzzy hippies grew up and became Republicans or libertarians. The latent totalitarians among them became Dems.
The Chicago political machine.
well, they know they’ll get away with it...which leads me to believe that violence will be coming our way to this country.....because there are many angry people out there....
If all of you are expecting the MSM to start looking into this AND other stories about Obama, you’re going to wait a long time. SSI recipients are getting $250 stimulus checks right and left while everyone else pays. I’m sure that’s been in the news, but I sure don’t read much about it.
"Right here, you capitalist pig republicans..."
Well, the info is out there, and can be checked...thank God for the internet.
From the first time I heard that guy on Cavuto talk about his amazement that his “successful” dealership (top 2 percent) was being closed and he had no idea why, it just seemed to me that it must be politically motivated.
Time will tell.
Word is getting out there...
