Democrats hoping to turn a recent “discovery” by a maid after a Republican gathering into gold for their party might want to settle down and think about some other things politic.  Excitement over a presentation to Republican leadership should fade fast when put to contrast with Democrat collusion efforts, cover ups and open deceit. ...

An anonymous commenter brings this up on MJ Perry’s blog.. At 11/06/2009 12:32 AM, Anonymous said… Why is the UAW allowed to represent the workers at Ford? the UAW is now the de facto owner of GM and Chrysler, courtesy of the US taxpayer via the Obama administration.

The Automakers face a number of issues which in my opinion are hardly solvable by MORE government solutions.
