“Starting today, the United States government will stand behind your warrantee.”

At times like this I’m glad The Husband and I bought a Toyota and a Volvo, respectively.

Straight out of President Obama’s remarks on U.S. car industry:

It is my hope that the steps I am announcing today will go a long way towards answering many of the questions people may have about the future of GM and Chrysler. But just in case there are still nagging doubts, let me say it as plainly as I can — if you buy a car from Chrysler or General Motors, you will be able to get your car serviced and repaired, just like always. Your warrantee (sic) will be safe.

In fact, it will be safer than it’s ever been. Because starting today, the United States government will stand behind your warrantee.

I mean, Gerard is so confident in this bit of news he’s even quoting scriptures!

Feeling better now?

    Pity the poor CEO of GM who was just tossed out on his kiester. I too was once “out-sized”, but at least it was by my boss at the time, not a politician. But look at the bright side, Rick Wagoner does not have to find a cure for cancer or something like that, in order to go down in the history books. Used to be only Generals got fired by Presidents….
