I disagree.. That question by the congressman was EXCELLENT, the best one of the day, because it goes right to the heart of their (the CEO's) JUDGEMENT.. If they couldn't figure out AHEAD of time, that it would look pretty damn bad for them flying in on private jets to beg for money from the government, how the Hell can they look far enough ahead in their business decisions to keep their company's afloat. Oh damn, I forgot.. They couldn't. They indicted themselves with that little exercise. Sometimes the simplest questions, reveal the most..:)

i like to think they are flipping pelosi the bird, but the more i think about it, i'm not convinced....at the very least they're getting some really rotten PR advice for which they probably pay big bux <g> they had the magical PR moment to drive their own cars to washington, when they first arrived.....gimmick? sure but this country loves it's PR gimmicks<g> now they just look even more pathetic having been pw'd by pelosi i guess when you come whoring for washington dollars you do what ya gotta do, no matter how degrading
