“Because the vast majority of employees for GM, Ford and Chrysler are part of the UAW.”

They all are, even some in management, it’s a work requirement.

“The UAW is opposed to conservatism and threw all its weight to get Hussein and other socialists elected. Ergo, the UAW is an enemy of conservatism and its losing hundreds of thousands of dues-paying members is good for conservatism.”

The UAW is a self preserving institution. Again, you’d lose your body to save your arm?

You should become a pollster considering that you know how all of the UAW members voted. You do not know how they vote or voted.

“Besides, few people actually buy GM, Ford and Chrysler anymore these days, no one is going to miss them if they go under”

For bandwidth brevity... got any stats to back that up?

No kidding! I had no idea!

The UAW is a cancer. It will kill its host unless it is killed first. Would you rather die of cancer than kill the tumor that will kill you first? For me personally, I won't miss GM, Ford or Chrysler as I haven't bought anything from them in years.

You should become a pollster considering that you know how all of the UAW members voted. You do not know how they vote or voted.

Again, where did I make this claim?

Yes. The fact that GM, Ford and Chrysler are the only companies whining for a bailout as opposed to superior car companies like Toyota, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mercedes, Mitsubishi, Isuzu, Subaru and Volkswagen who are not. Even in this economy, the car companies I list may be experiencing some financial pains, but they are not in the crapper the same way GM, Ford and Chrysler are.

What? Management is not a part of the UAW ever. At least tell the truth. Also, I have to run but there were plenty of GM workers who were Republicans-You are an .... (trying to be nice and not get banned). Who do you think the Reagan Democrats were? They were the working guys-many were union guys. The people I work with are patriots-many were in the military. Some voted for Obama and some for McCain. all love their country. I sincerely hope those of you who have wished ill on fellow American reap the poison you have sown-loss of job, loss of house etc. Oh, those of you employed in the ‘Southern Auto industry’ ( no such thing of course as these are foreign manufacturers), start looking for jobs. Your plants won’t keep the suppliers in business-no parts means no cars can be built. Have a very nice day.

I want to see a public financial audit of the UAW. I want to see every single check they wrote.
