I find it most arrogant and offensive that the UAW has essentially said FU in response to talk about concessions in exchange for a bailout.

Of course that's not what the UAW is saying. You need to stop watching Hannity so much.

While the libs argue they aren't the problem, it is clear they are. But even if you accept the premise that they aren't the ENTIRE problem, it is self-evident they are a significant portion of the problem.

It must be hard keeping true to your ideology. On the one hand you have unions which the current GOP hates because there are too many joe the plumbers in one place. And then you have mgmt spending like there is no tomorrow and buying 8 corporate jets. What's a partisan ideologue to do? Ultimately of course, you go for the corp. spendthrifts because they look more like you.......

These guys jobs are obviously on the line and they are still not willing to give up anything to keep working. I ran into an employee of Countrywide last night who is taking a 40% pay cut. Yet, unskilled UAW members think they should get out of this self-inflicted problem scott-free?

Like I said, you can't believe everything Hannity says.

F them. I don't give a crap. It is a shame, but I think the end of Detroit may be near, and I can only say they deserve it. Perhaps the liberals will learn from this blunder (although they seem to be very slow learners).

Uh.......I think the end of the GOP is near.
