We are now learning more facts about how Obama saved General Motors.\u00a0 In a world dominated by ObamaCare, the Ukraine, Benghazi, Syria, Iran, IRS Targeting, Fast & Furious and NSA eavesdropping, the GM story could just top the list.\u00a0 Remember when Biden gloated that Bin Laden is dead and GM is alive.\u00a0 Frankly after all the other lies and cover-ups by this administration I am no longer completely sure Bid Laden is dead.\u00a0 How on earth could we trust this government with regard to anything?\u00a0 As for GM, the mismanagement by the Obama administration may come closer to killing GM than saving it.<\/p>\n

This started out bad, with the Obama administration stiffing GM\u2019s creditors and bond holders while bailing out the UAW.\u00a0 This, of course, is the same UAW which demanded GM sign labor agreements that made it impossible for GM to complete.\u00a0 In effect UAW was bailed out from the problem they created.<\/p>\n

That was bad enough, but now we know more about the high cost of governmental leadership.\u00a0 At the same time the Obama administration was trash talking Toyota for an allegedly defective floor mat, GM was covering up huge safety defects.<\/p>\n

The following article in Yahoo News is scathing:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/news.yahoo.com\/dealers-gm-customer-anxiety-rising-sales-may-hit-165305715–sector.html;_ylt=AwrBEiGQkj1TxAYAZMLQtDMD<\/a><\/p>\n

The new CEO at GM is trying to explain this:<\/p>\n

“It will take some time for the brand to gain back the customers it lost,” she said. “But I have got to believe that General Motors will use this opportunity to really focus on improving the safety of their product.”<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

She \u201chas\u201d<\/strong> to believe but the rest of us would be insane to believe.\u00a0 This is what happens when you turn over one management of the most respected companies in the history of the United States to a bunch of na\u00efve radicals.\u00a0 It doesn\u2019t get much worse than letting people drive around in cars knowing that the air bags may not work.\u00a0 Perhaps I am wrong, but this seems to border on criminal negligence.\u00a0 PGE is facing criminal charges with regard to the pipeline explosion in San Bruno.\u00a0 This seems much worse.<\/p>\n

This is just another example of what happens when the government tries to manage anything.\u00a0 Just today we learned that the State Department, under the brilliant leadership of Hillary Clinton, spent $6 billion in payments to contractors and it can\u2019t quite figure out where the money went:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.thefiscaltimes.com\/Articles\/2014\/04\/04\/6-Billion-Goes-Missing-State-Department<\/a><\/p>\n

In a special \u201cmanagement alert\u201d made public Thursday, the State Department\u2019s Inspector General Steve Linick warned \u201csignificant financial risk and a lack of internal control at the department has led to billions of unaccounted dollars over the last six years. <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Nice! \u00a0Hillary is obviously over-qualified to be a Democratic President.<\/p>\n
