Schultz Shills For Government Motors
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 07/10/2009 5:50:56 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

This was inevitable. When the Obama administration effectively took over General Motors, Obama-friendly media hacks were going to tout the company's products . . .

And so it was that on his MSNBC show this evening, Ed Schultz offered up an unpaid infomercial for GM's new Camaro. Most grotesque was Schultz's boast that the Camaro was outselling the Ford Mustang. Take that, private-sector company that declined to take Obama's dime!

Look, it's been awhile since the last camaro and there are lot of cinder blocks around the trailer parks needing something to hold them down.

Camaro’s are the ones with unpainted body putty on them, right? I didn’t know that they came that way from the factory.

This dude is a clown. The Camaro is one of the cars the environmentalistas would like to get rid of.

How long will the Camaro be available. It certainly doesnt match any of the perquisites for an economy car.

Speaking of GM shills, do Rush and Hannity still have their GM endorsement deals, or have they gone away?

As the author of the original article at NewsBusters, I’d be curious to know why you say that.

If a dumb fat f_ck bloviates on a television network and nobody hears him, does the dumb fat f_ck really make a sound?

I’ll buy a car made by North Korea before I will buy a GM.

Yeah that’s right. Kinda like the Vegas with the factory fresh rust.

As a fan of your writing and of the site, I’d be curious too.

Exactly. With the new GM now being run by the government, expect the hot Camaro to be the first to be replaced by a matchbox car.

Even if the Camaro somehow survives, does anyone expect any Libs from Crazy Ed's target audience to be caught driving one? Not a chance.

no dude you’re a joke....

and incidentally I will gladly buy a Ford over a GM car.

That is if I ever decide to buy a UAW vehicle, which I probably won’t.
