Barney Frank… Smartest guy in congress?
BWAHAHAAHAAHAAAHA!
If that’s true, that’s a truly sad statistic, but one I’m sure probably fits, seeing as he is a retard in a room full of nincompoops.

Do not let these same highly paid incompetent auto executives and their overpaid union workers continue their featherbed deals, job banks, perks, private jet airplanes, stupid business decisions, and etc. with taxpayer money. These same people took so much money from the US Auto Industry that they bled the US Auto Industry to death. Let them go bankrupt so other parties can buy their assembly plants and re-start these plants as non-union automobile manufacturing operations.
The suppliers have ample warning of the possibility that they might not get paid, and need to get these financially irresponsible US auto makers on a COD or Cash in Advance Basis.
