No one was spared. According to Rattner, Obama asked, "Why can't [GM and Chrysler] make a Corolla?"

Response: I can believe this report as it fits a member of this bungled group allowed to hold office.

"Tim was...given to occasional bursts of profanity and odd fits of giggling."
When his head turns around 360 degrees and he projectile vomits then it'll be official. Until then his demonic possession is just speculation.

GM DID build a Corolla. It was badged as a chevy model. But it was 100% Corolla. Quite decent.

As for the auto unions, Emanuel let loose with an F-bomb: "F--k the UAW."

I am not a psychiatrist, but I did stay in a Holiday Inn. I think the outburst of inappropriate laughter is called hebophrenia. I have probably spelled it wrong. I only stayed one night.

Ratting by a Rat on a Giggling Geit ???

Hey Tim, lay off the weed!!

[Dick Bachert]

If you'd just helped pull of one of the biggest heists in world history, I guess you'd be prone to fits of giggling, too.
