Sounds a bit Reichstag fire-ish, but jack-booted things like this have occurred before (thinking Elian Gonzalez).

Were “representatives” of Government Motors and their UAW union-thug allies present at the raids? That's what this really is about, after all. Government-run auto companies can't compete on a level playing field, so the only option is to destroy the competition with criminal and civil action.

Sounds like what Obama is going to do is put Toyota under so much stress that they fail, making more room for GM or make them submit to unionized takeover of their factories or both... how’s that for thuggery...

No, no satire.

Somehow I doubt these suppliers are union shops.

During the depression, Roosevelt’s goons tried to put Andrew Mellon in jail too. Same ol’ same ol. Fascism never changes.

What the f@#$???????????????????????????

over a QUESTIONABLE recall malfunction?

Government Motors is taking over.

I said it right from the start- Obama did not have to nationalize the auto industry- only one. then use the power of the government to drive the others out of business

I was shopping this weekend- many dealers said that new customers were telling them they refuse to buy a government car.

I wonder how sales are?
