The Central Committee of the Obama Revolution has announced that it is bailing out GMAC for the third time. Funny how all those people who have preached to us for years about the evils of corporate welfare are out in force defending the Obama administration's decision.
Oh, and then there's all that rhetoric about Republicans being the part of big corporations. Yet the only businesses getting bailouts are the big ones. The little guys are bing hung out to dry.

You are welcome to post at this blog. You are asked, however, to refrain from the following:
1. Name-calling;
2. Questioning the motives or integrity of people you have never met just because you disagree with them;
3. Using obscenities or other expressions not appropriate or necessary to civilized discussion;
4. Taking disagreement personally;
5. Demeaning or insulting remarks.
The host will attempt to abide by the same rules and only asks that you not provide him with the temptation to do so in return by violating them.
Failure to comply with these rules can result (depending solely on the arbitrary and inscrutable will of the host) in the deletion of offending posts and suspension of posting privileges. Such measures are more likely if you post anonymously.
The point of bailing out big corporations is not economic. It's political. If you look at the bailouts of GM and Chrysler as payback for union support, it makes perfect sense. If you see it as an attempt to rehabilitate failed companies, you're doomed to eternal confusion.
