Let us not forget Chrysler:



Chrysler - A Very Dirty Story
Sooner or later it will all come to light!
This could be a scandal of epic proportions and one that makes Nixon's
Watergate or Clinton 's Monica Lewinsky affair pale by comparison.

Why was there neither rhyme nor reason as to which dealerships of the
Chrysler Corporation were to be closed?

Roll the clock back to the weeks just before Chrysler declared
bankruptcy. Chrysler, like GM, was in dire financial straits and
federal government "graciously" offered to "buy the company" and keep
them out of bankruptcy and "save jobs."

Chrysler was, in the words of Obama and his administration, "Too big
to fail," same story with GM.

The feds organized their "Automotive Task Force" to fix Chrysler and
GM. Obama, in an act that is 100% unconstitutional, appointed a guy
named Steve Rattner to be the White House's official Car Czar -
literally, that's what his title is.

Rattner is the liaison between Obama, Chrysler, and GM.

Initially, the national media reported that Chrysler 'had made this
list of dealerships'. Not true!

The Washington Examiner, Newsmax, Fox News and a host of other news
agencies discovered that the list of dealerships was put together by
the "Automotive Task Force" headed by no one other than Mr. Steve
Rattner.

Now the plot thickens.

Remember earlier we said that there was neither rhyme nor reason why
certain dealerships were closed?

Actually there's a very interesting pattern as to who was closed down.
Again, on May 27, 2009, The Washington Examiner and Newsmax exposed
the connection.

Amazingly, of the 789 dealerships closed by the federal
government, 788 had donated money, exclusively to Republican political
causes, while contributing nothing to Democratic political causes. The
only "Democratic" dealership on the list was found to have donated
$7,700 to Hillary's campaign, and a bit over $2,000 to John Edwards.
This same dealership, reportedly, also gave $20000 to Obama's
campaign.

Does that seem a little odd to you?

Steve Rattner is the guy who put the list together. Well, he happens
to be married to a Maureen White. Maureen happens to be the former
national finance chairman of the Democratic National Committee. As
such, she has access to campaign donation records from everyone in the
nation- Republican or Democrat. But of course, this is just a wacky
"coincidence," we're certain.

Then comes another really wacky "coincidence."

On that list of dealerships being closed down, a weird thing happened
in Arkansas , North Louisiana, and Southern
Missouri . It seems that Bill Clinton's former White House Chief of
Staff, Mack McClarty, owns a chain of dealership in that region,
partnered with a fellow by the name of Robert Johnson.

Johnson happens to be founder of Black Entertainment Television and
was a huge Obama supporter and financier.

These guys own a half dozen Chrysler stores under the company title of
RLJ-McClarty-Landers. Interestingly, none of their dealerships were
ordered closed - not one! While all of their competing Chrysler/Dodge
and Jeep dealership were!

Eight dealerships located near the dealerships owned by McClarty and
Johnson were ordered shut down. Thus by pure luck, these two major
Obama supporters now have virtual monopoly on Chrysler sales in their
zone. Isn't that amazing?

Go look in The Washington Examiner, the story's there, and it's in a
dozen or so other web-based news organizations; this isn't being made
up.

Now if you thought Chrysler was owned by Fiat, you are mistaken. Under
the federal court ruling, 65% of Chrysler is now owned by the federal
government and the United Auto Workers union! Fiat owns 20%. The other
15% is still privately owned
and presumably will be traded on the stock market.

Obama smiles and says he doesn't want to run the auto
industry.

As horrifying as this is to comprehend, and being as how this used to
be the United States of America , it would appear that the president
has the power to destroy private businesses and
eliminate upwards of 100,000 jobs just because they don't agree with
his political agenda

There are voices in Washington demanding an explanation, but the
"Automotive Task Force" has released no information to
the public or to any of the senators demanding answers for what has been done.

Keep your ear to the ground for more on this story. If you've ever
wanted to make a difference about anything in your life, get on the
phone to your national senator or representative in the House and
demand an investigation into this.

Benjamin Franklin had it right when he said, "All that's necessary for
evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing."

Car Czar No More

An amazing thing happened as this story was going to press. Obama's
Car Czar, Steve Rattner, resigned on July 13 and was promptly replaced
by former steel workers union boss Ron Bloom.

According to CBS News, Rattner left "to return to private life and
spend time with his family."

Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner said, "I hope that he takes another
opportunity to bring his unique skills to government service in the
future."

By the way, Rattner is under investigation for a multi-million dollar
pay-to-play investment bank scandal in New York .....

Uh-oh!

But, we're certain that had nothing to do
with his resignation. And, according to several news sources out
there, there are rumors he's being investigated for what could be
pay-to-play scandal
involving the closing of Chrysler and GM dealerships.
Really?

Again, that couldn't have anything to with his resignation-that's
ridiculous! Like CBS said, this guy just wants to "spend more quality
time with his family."

Obama has 32 personally appointed "czars" who answer to no one but
him, all of whom are acting without any Constitutional authority. But
hey, we're sure they all have "unique skills,"... as Tim Geithner
likes to say!

This goes from beyond corruption in high places - to gross criminal
actions on the part of our government! How shocking, this from the most transparent administration ever.

What is the temperature in centigrade that must happen before there can be combustion? Fire?
