2012 Presidential Election (free for all edition)

For the life of me I have no idea why conservatives are still pounding the GM big government narrative. GM is back. It worked. A lot of manufacturing jobs returned to our shores as a result. Was it the best solution? Hell no. Under ideal circumstances GM would have been solvent and profitable. But that wasn't the case. It's a win for the country.

Right now Treasury owns 500 million GM shares. Seems they are waiting for the right time to sell (around $32 per share) to repay taxpayers.

I think Bush had it right on the subject when he said "Sometimes circumstances get in the way of philosophy." Reading all this conservative drivel you would think this Administration and Democrats enjoy bailing and dolling out monies to corporations and hurting them at the same time.


How do you look left and right at the same time again?
