More Rightwing Lunacy on Autos

Forcing us to save GM, Ford and Chrysler is to force us to buy what we have already decided we do not want. That's about as un-American as you can get. - Online WSJ, featured commenter

First, it is completely untrue that Americans do not want cars from GM, F, and Chrysler. U.S. manufacturers may have lost share, but Americans still buy cars from them. (At least, until Corker-Shelby made an ideological decision that's trashing the brands in the worst way).

WHAT ABOUT NATIONAL SECURITY?

Yesterday, on the way home from the post office, I followed a police car. They are built by Ford.

I wonder how the GOP feel about having our townships buy police vehicles built in Japan, etc.?

That's right, tax money going to support the industrial base of Korea, our good friends, who already get a huge national defense subsidy from American taxpayers, right?

I believe it is GM who builds vehicles for higher level security forces. The list goes on, no doubt.
