Ford undoubtedly also got a little call from some UAW leadership... “Nice little company ya got there... hate to see anything bad happen to it...”

This is creepy if true — that the White House is pestering Ford(*) for daring to try to make hay out of the FACT that Ford didn’t need or accept a bailout.

(*— And Ford not only is a huge company that, one would hope, would not easily be intimidated, but ALSO is full of UAW workers.)

Truth hurts. Disappointed in Ford for caving to whiny liberals with their hands out.

Ford still has union thugs working for them, and union thugs who aren’t working form them, still receiving paychecks, do they no? If so, the time will come when they need a bailout, so they better be nice.

D**n! They should have had the courage of their convictions. Now, I will only look at makers not bending a knee to King Obama.

I’d pull it too. Then run it during the Superbowl.

Too good to leave it on the shelf.

Yes, which is part (and only part) of what was so monstrous about the GM bailout giving majority ownership to the UAW. Ford is now competing against its own workers.

Won’t be long we’re going to need to purchase two vehicles, and Ford is at the top of the list. Edge, and Flex. Already have an old F-150 I’ll run ‘til it dies, but have to replace the other two.
