Judged: 1 1 1 GM’s sales figures for last month were the best since 2008 , up 16% for the month of June. YIPPEE! Well, wait just a minute. It seems that those rosy sales figures are due primarily to a 79% increase in fleet sales to the U.S.gov ernment in June. That’s right. Our tax dollars are being used to pump up GM’s sales figures ahead of next month’s quarterly report so that Dear Leader can point to Government Motors as a huge success. The incestuous relationship between GM, the UAW and the Regime has never been more glaringly apparent. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. GM is unsustainable without government subsidies and will ultimately go bust again, taking billions of taxpayer dollars down with it. We bailed out General Motors to the tune of $50 billion.$30 billion of this is effectively a loss, mostly sunk into fattening the United Auto Workers union—fierce Obama supporters—while the actual bondholders were shown the elevator shaft. Meanwhile, as NewsBusters reports,“We the Taxpayers are still stuck holding 500+ million shares of GM stock. Which we need to sell at $53 per. Which debuted post-bankruptcy at $33 per. And which is currently trading at just over $20 per. Meaning we’ll lose about $15 billion.” But it gets better. Despite the overwhelming negatives, the tiny bright spot of positive June sales numbers is being heralded by Obama and the leftist press as proof the auto bailout was a “success.” Obama is now campaigning on the “success” of – the government buying cars from…the government’s car company. With our money. Americanvision says That’s like you setting up a lemonade stand for your kids. You buy them the lemons, sugar, cups and pitchers – and then buy most of the lemonade yourself. The pressure is on Government Motors to appear financially strong as this may be the last earnings report before November elections and sets the stage for how “successful” GM is. One of GM’s past tricks to help fudge earnings numbers has been to stuff truck inventory channels. Old habits die hard at GM. According to a Bloomberg report,“GM said inventory of its full-size pickups, which will be refreshed next year, climbed to 238,194 at the end of June, a 135 days’ supply, up from 116 days at the end of May.” 135 days’ supply is huge, the accepted norm is a 60 day supply. The trick here is that GM records revenue when vehicles go into dealership. |

Judged: 1 1 1 You're completely missing the point about the NDAA. First of all, the fact that you said that "he signed it in the light of day" couldn't help but make me chuckle. He signed it on 12/31/2011. New Year's Eve. Would you sign something you wanted on the front page on New Year's Eve? Of course not. It was intended to slip through as many cracks as possible. As for support of the bill, you have to understand that you and I form our opinions about bills very differently. You seem to form your opinion based on who supports the bill (Dems/Reps) and who signed the bill. I base my opinion based on WHAT IS IN THE BILL. Sections 1021 & 1022 of the NDAA are in complete contrast to the Constitution. Indefinite detainment of US citizens without due process is not something I will ever support, regardless of which politicians say it is good. And the fact that indefinite detainment of citizens is about the only thing that both sides could agree on says a lot about the state of our government. Yet you decide that this, like everything else, has to be a left/right issue. I criticize something Obama signed (based on it's merits), and your response is that the right is all for it too! That does not make it good policy! What is in the bill is far more important than who signed it. Until we remember that we are Americans, not republicans/democrats, we're going to get un-American laws like this. Now... Obama said that he doesn't support sections 1021 & 1022 but he signed the bill under the guise that he wouldn't use those fancy new executive powers. Judge Katherine B. Forrest then ruled sections 1021 & 1022 unconstitutional. Problem solved, right? Wrong. Obama is currently appealing that decision. So which is it? If he SAYS he doesn't support that part of the bill, why is he appealing the court's decision to get that power back? Again, his WORDS are different than his ACTIONS. Is indefinite detainment of US citizens the "CHANGE" you voted for in 2008? By the way, you know why the Republicans aren't calling him out on this? Because they want this (unconstitutional) power too when they are in charge!!! Wake up! This isn't a left/right issue ... this is an America issue. We should ALL be against this. |

I agree. Both sides should be against this.
This law is as bad as the so called pat act. |

Judged: 1 1 1 Exactly. The left was correct to criticize the patriot act when Bush was in office. Now that Obama is in, though... the tune has changed. Somehow the left now supports not only the patriot act, but also the NDAA that dwarfs it. What happened??? |

Judged: 1 1 1 Re-read and respond like an adult, not like someone that is offended that I dared criticize your hero. If you can't do that, don't respond at all. |

Judged: 1 1 1 While I agree ndaa was bullshit, theres a difference between it and the patriot act. Threw ndaa had numerous positions that we need as a military (funds, regulations, resolutions, provisions,etc) and this one part obama openly disagreed with and was forced between screw over our military or pass this horrible provision. The patriot act had no positive provisions. It was all just spy on americans. It was all bad. At least with ndaa you can look at it and say , that sux and you were between a rock and a hard place. Obama pointed out as well that this was a good reason to pass a bil to approve line item vetos. |
