Steve 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. 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. 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? 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).
