This is BEYOND outrageous !!!! It's shocking to see what's happening to these hard-working, tax paying good citizens and job creators. I'm heartbroken, sick to my stomach for that dealer who was dumped by both GM and Chrysler and all the dealers .. how can this be happening ? MUST watch the video ... I'm out of ample words. We are Venezuela.

Video of Texas GM and Chrysler dealer

"Frank A. Blakenbeckler III, from Waxahachie, Texas, owns the oldest Chevrolet dealership in the state of Texas, operating since 1926, when it was founded by his maternal grandfather.

He choked back tears as he told the committee, "It took me nearly 20 years to pay my parents for Carlisle Chevrolet. It took GM and Chrysler a mere 24 hours to steal Carlisle Chevrolet from me. This makes no sense. Why is this happening?"

Blankenbeckler's pain was palpable in the hearing room as he continued, "I am hurt. I feel violated. I am extremely angry. I wear my father's Bronze Star lapel pin on my coat. He was a member of the greatest generation. I am glad he is not alive to witness this travesty."

Smartest thing he can do at this juncture is to get another brand and keep his already loyal customers. Many will keep buying form him regardless of the brand.

People buy trust and track records as well as brands.This guy obviously has both he should not give up.

He voted Republican or contributed to the Republican cause. Sad, the demoncRATS like rahmbo would pull sh*t like this. What’s the recourse? I don’t have the foggiest. But you can bet your booties that if the Republicans pulled a travesty like this the RATS would be screaming & yelling their nasty pointy heads. There would be hearing after hearing with the RAT leadership like Reid & PeLIESi tying up the action until the end of the administration.
