Think the media will treat him the same way they treated Palin? Think any headlines will read, "Rumor has it Car Czar quit due to federal probe."

[GeronL]

Culture of Corruption plagues Obama White House

should be the title

[omega4179]

He quit because he is pregnant.

[Paladin2]

Ford stopped making Probes, but I suppose the gov’t could still own a few.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

Glenn Beck alerted everyone to potential problems with this guy a while ago.

[anniegetyourgun]

So, Bloom ALSO has no auto industry experience?

[Lou Budvis]

Rattner was the bait, no here is the switch: “will be replaced by former steelworkers official Ron Bloom.” The clowns will be running the circus.

[alice_in_bubbaland]

He should be indicted.

[SandRat]

Rats abandoning a sinking ship?

[Army Air Corps]

Si. The motto of the Obama (mis)Administration - “No Experience Necessary.”

[BigSkyFreeper]

Two questions Bloom should answer:

1. Did you cheat on your taxes?

2. Are you now driving a GM or Chrysler automobile?

[gussiefinknottle]

So he won praise by the administration that appointed him?
Did industry professionals praise him?

[BigSkyFreeper]

He should be indicted.

LOL

[SDShack]

“So, Bloom ALSO has no auto industry experience?”

Not to worry, he is a Steel Workers guy, so the UAW will love him. That fact will enable Chrysler and Government Motors to be profitable any day now!

[ClayinVA]

The real answers.
1. yes, how do you think I got the job.

2. No, only the little people drive domestic cars. I drive a BMW.

[Gaffer]

He quit because he's finally realized that the American public isn't going to buy a car from a manufacturer completely under the thumb of a tyrant and a bunch of no-goods (the UAW).

For me, trying to sell me a GM or Chrysler car would be tantamount to trying to sell me a pile of shit, freshly produced.

He's done his damage.  Why not leave...


                          The following is directed to Freepers who haven't donated or signed up for monthlies yet...

21% is good.  100% is better.  You know you're going to do it.  Pull the trigger!  You don't have to pay it all now.  $5 now, $25 next week, $10 later... keep the ball rolling.

Monthly donorship is a good way for us to avoid having to do the Freepathons.  Besides, it's a great way to pony up in style.
If you're on the verge of becoming a monthly donor or you think you would like to up your monthly donation a bit, has Jim got a deal for you. 
Check this out.  There's an added incentive for a limited time only.  (Always wanted to type that...)

Thanks to Freepers who have been frequenting the Freepathon thread to ham it up with folks over there.  It helps to raise the visibility of the Freepathon.

Jump into the Monthly Donorship special thread too.

The Spirit Of Allegiance says, "For those about to donate, I salute you!"  So do I.

[Doogle]

...guess the real story will be hushed up now....
no reason to bring out the really bad stuff this clown was into...

[Mr Ramsbotham]

For me, trying to sell me a GM or Chrysler car would be tantamount to trying to sell me a pile of shit, freshly produced.

Shovel ready, no doubt!

The house of cards continues to fall. Fail, all of them, liars and cheats. Barry is losing his kingdom and I relish seeing him exposed as the usurper he is. Lies can’t fool all the people all the time.
