Not supporting GM and Chrysler breaks the back of the UAW

and this is what the Rethugs Shelby, Corker and McCain wanted, along with so so many here, people that think it's OK to have Foreign interests make everything their lives depend on. What this also means is hundreds of thousands of retired and disable UAW workers are left out in the cold, and current workers will not have a health insurance umbrella no matter what little they are paid. Toyota has about 2500 retirees after nearly three decades here, and that should wake a few of you up to realize that they shove people out the door and don't offer a life of employment like the Domestic Auto industry did.

And if the Obama Administration allows the destruction of the American Auto Industry, he will be hard pressed to garner support from the remaining Unions in 2012, the Unions who got him where he is.


Obama didn't take a hard line with AIG or Wall Street, but he is taking a hard line with Main Street. It is not a pretty picture.


We can't eat hope.
