    The confederacy has always despised this country. Their auto assemblers

    working for foriegn companies and their Reps trying to crush American corporations are just two examples of that hatred. As if more were needed.

    The American auto industry was bankrupted by its own stockholders, who also sit on gas company boards, and force management to build oil sucking lemons.

    We're just spinning our wheels until Obama takes office. I hope he redoes the bailout, gets control of management, and converts the companies to sustainable manufacturing: green cars, mass transit, clean power generation, etc.
