What's new from GM!

FUNNY! Wonder who actually designed it however, seeing as how the driver is sitting on the right!

Amy...can't imagine what would happen when this car gets in an accident!

If this car gets in an accident, it's a safe bet that it would be Bush and Cheney's fault, too!

Here are some more photos of the happy couple:

Since it takes more then 6 months to go from idea to prototype.......

Amy...you forgot Bush 1 too. In fact, I'm sure our liberals will blame Reagan too.

I like the Obama sticker on the car. Now that's funny!

Yeah Looks like he is trying to take credit someone elses work once again.
As much as I would like to blame reagan for giving in to auto company lobbiests to loosen mileage restrictions that could have made our country to leader in fuel efficient automobiles. The blame really lies with the corporate leaders of that industry cashing in on the quick easy buck now instead of planning for the inevitable future.

lakeside lib...your comment is more amusing than the Obama sticker on the car!

How so Jim ?

Our auto industry is shameful we really should have let them fail instead of becoming a taxpayer burden. No doubt the former employees on welfare would be money better spent then this form of corporate welfare we see now.

There are those who would like us to believe that the government owns GM. I think it would be more accurate to believe GM and the rest of the auto industry have owned the government for the last three decades. Republicans and Democrats alike were on the payroll. Just follow the lobbyist dollars.

Yes reps and dems are both in lobbiests back pockets.I want to laugh at the us vs them cons/libs atmosphere in this nation today.One tries to blame the other for all the woes when both are at fault for the outcome.Both sides only want more power over the population but enough of this public service message I return you to your normal programming.

jmark...where have you been? If the US gov and the unions don't own GM, than can you tell us who does???

What's really funny is that a car like this (the "Obamamobile") is probably what is going to start coming out of GM. And no one will buy it. I bet many folks won't give up their evil SUV's no matter how hard the government tries to make them.
And GM, because of the tiny, politically-correct "green" cars will continue to lose money, and continue to be fed taxpayer dollars to stay afloat...after all, isn't that the desire of the Obama government? Destroy capitalism and support losing businesses? Examples of such abound - look at the post office situation for a great example.

It won't be the government making them give up their SUV the return of $4 a gal gas will do that.
It would be a shame if when the chevy volt comes to market and people ignore it and continue to buy gas suckers. Be even more of a shame if they do buy the small gas engined vehichles GM plans on building in china for market here.
America should embrace green technology maybe then we could be on top of some type of industry again (well besides weapons sales)

SUV sales plummeted during the most recent period of high gas prices. It's only a matter of time before prices elevate to the point where consumers are forced to abandon the gas guzzling SUV, again. The Europeans have had high fuel prices for decades. You won't see very many Hummers, Escalades, Suburbans, etc, on their highways. A Chinese Co. has recently purchased Hummer and has plans for improving its fuel efficiency. In which case they will turn around and sell it to must-have- BIG-car consuming Americans. So, don't despair Hemmer, there may be a Hummer in your future.

I'd love a Hummer! The H2 or H3 would be perfect...

Why are you using the Post Office as an example of destroying capitalism and supporting losing businesses? The Post Office is not a business, it is a service provided by the government for the convenience of it's citizens. If it was run more like a business we would not be getting 6 day a week mail delivery and I'm sure that there would no longer be Post Offices in Merton, North Lake, Ashippun, Nashotah and thousands of other some towns and villages across the country. The auto industry provided what the consumers wanted, big cars that allow the occupants to travel long distances comfortably. This is what our society is geared to. We do not have well developed mass transit systems, we got rid of our neighborhood mom and pop stores in favor of large one stop chain stores on the outskirts of town. When fuel prices started to rise the foreign auto industry was prepared because they provide vehicles that are more suited to a more local level of travel than we do. When the fuel prices rise again, as they surely will, we either change, start purchasing more locally, maybe even start growing some of our own veggies, or we will go broke driving to the big chain stores.
