    I will agree that Ford didn't take any bail-out money, but what ya'll fail to realize is; GM has paid back the majority of the money. Have ya'll not looked up and seen what GM's profits have been since restructering the entire orginazation?!!? Ya'll saying that "at least" Ford didn't take a bail-out will only work till the debt is paid off. With GM posting records sales and profits, as a consumer, it looks to me like they are out-doing the competition...

      sorry, that is totally incorrect G.M. has not. they want you to think they have.

      what about the $275 BILLION dollars they took from other businesses when they declared bankruptcy.

      sorry, won't get anymore political than that on here.

        it's easy to show a profit when you are allowed to keep your main assests and bankrupt on the debt. also, the previous stock holders got screwed. beside, the government still owns a majority of the stock, which was issued in the mid $30's and is now down to the mid $20's.

                  • Joisy is up 2 nil after two (make that 3 - 0 now, somebody is going to go here soon). But down 2-1 in games up to this point. The only better TV would be if the Red Things were playing still, not.

                    P.S. - Stop poking Allen - he has work to do - get on it beyotch.

                    P.S.S.- I am already starting to pile stuff up to take - first pile - case of water, 60 beers, unbrella - well just in case it rains.

                      • Exactly - I remember Somerset raining pretty good - umbrella stuck in stake pocket - beer in hand - thinking - I need to get me one of those California water blade thingies for just this type downpour. Grandkids put one in my stocking next to the coal for Xmas, how did they know?

                          Santa's little helpers . Just be careful not to leave black marks from the coal . Oh nevermind, the marks wouldn't show up on your truck .

                          • That California water blade sure would have been handy in Sommerset. Maureen and I sat in the Camaro for almost an hour while it poured and poured.

                                Stoke the coal burning stove I got years ago -

                                Bruce - that will get me to Detroit - then I have a list of Miller Distributors nationwide as a backup.
