Yes, but the union will still own the stock that Obama stole for them. Still will not buy a GM product, even a used one. . . don’t want to even buy a part from the thieving SOBs.

Most of that 10 billion? Went right to the Unions in the form of Preferred Stock purchases, stock that had been confiscated from legitimate shareholders by the Obama Bankruptcy proceedings.Redistribution of wealth. Thats what these liberal fascists are about.

Analysts have said Treasury's exit from GM would lift the "Government Motors" stigma from the automaker, "Analysts" admit the boycott has worked?

Of course not. You don’t worry about such frivolous things when you are using other people’s money.
