obama has never taken responsibility for anything in his entire life. Why would he begin now? He has no experience in business, none in leadership, none in common everyday work, none in workin in private enterprise, and, after examining his voting record in the Senate, none in examining pending legislation and taking a voting position. His entire life has been to seek advancement for himself in any way and using anyone that he could. This mountebank, this charlatan is now President of the United States, and either he is exercising his extraordinary lack of understanding in economics, or his advisors have been given control. Only someone with no understanding of the auto industry could fail to see that unions have been a gigantic problem for auto corporations that tried to remain profitable in the changing economic climate. Only someone with no understanding of the auto industry could fail to see that the ridiculous environmental standards, often ones which are actually COUNTERPRODUCTIVE have been a gigantic problem. Only someone with no understanding of the auto industry could fail to see that refusing to build fuel refineries and refusing to drill for OUR OWN oil was a pathway to disaster. Now, the union, crooked as it is, and the federal government, incompetent as it is, will combine their ineptness to run two auto corporations into the ground. The only question left is: Who will fund the NEXT bail out, which will happen sooner rather than later.
