Looks like Chrysler, which is privately owned by rich Republicans, is pulling all its right-wing strings in DC to get it a piece of that auto bailout $$$.

Defense contractors. Big oil. Big pharma. Same thing for the past 8 years in which this Republican Administration has spent trillions and pulled every regulatory string to help its buds without any regard for everyone else. This is what you are about. While the top of the party goes on its personal feeding frenzy with your taxpayer dollars, they whip you up with issues like anti-stem cell research, anti-gay marriage, anti-liberal this and and liberal that. If you are a Republican making under 200K a year, you are getting played. Big time.
PS I am still for the auto bailout, but not to help rich Republicans. Rather I am strongly for it to help America because the terrible fallout due to one of these companies going under right now. I point this out to help Republicans understand their party's motivations and what their party is truly about.

(((Why then do you think he wrote that "I Am Not A Racist" column.
Believe what you will, but a very large number of people who have observed him have concluded that he is a racist.

If Helms says he isn't something, he isn't.

It's not even debate anymore.
Snoopy/melanie - all the guys you referenced are WHITE.
The Senate Republicans blocked a deal because it didn't reduce wages for labor enough. Of course they said again it wasn't their fault that the economic collapse occurred on their watch and that these companies are failing.
"The Republican leader, Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, said: “We have had before us this whole question of the viability of the American automobile manufacturers. None of us want to see them go down, but very few of us had anything to do with the dilemma that they have created for themselves.”"

What a bunch these Republicans are. Something bad happens on their watch and what's their excuse for sitting on the sidelines and watching it spiral from bad to really really bad? Not my fault. Uh huh.
Just like all this incompetence is not their fault:
