Red state, Texas, to be hardest hit with Chrysler closings

I don’t know how to find political donation information, but I think the activity in Texas needs to be researched by someone who does.

Chrysler is planning to shut down more dealerships in Texas than in any other state – 50 of the 789 dealerships targeted for closure are in Texas.

• El Dorado Chrysler-Jeep in McKinney
• Frank Kent Dodge in Fort Worth
• Grubbs Chrysler-Jeep in Bedford
• Huffines Chrysler-Jeep in Denton
• McNatt Dodge in Denton
• Manuel Dodge in Richardson
• Tommy Manuel Chrysler-Jeep in Arlington
• Preston Chrysler-Jeep in Dallas

Chrysler dealerships aren’t the only ones scheduled to get bad news this week. General Motors Corp. says it is notifying 1,100 dealers that it will not renew their franchise agreements when they expire at the end of September of 2010.

Problem is, too many Obama supporters don’t pay taxes at all, so they really don’t care what kind of tax burden he forces on the rest of us.

Is it 2013 yet?

KG you hit it dead center perfect!
And the “no one under $250k will pay any new taxes of any kind” Yeah we really believed that. Not!
But the dimwits think it’s okay because they knew the Obamaliar was just saying that to get elected and that was fine with them.

Oprompter’s SCOTUS nominee ruled recently, along with her appealate court colleagues, that New Haven, CT, can discriminate against white firefighters.

Crush, THANK YOU for not using the term “reverse racism” when describing the ruling by Sotomayor.

It really sticks in my craw when people use that term…. It implies that racism ONLY applies to blacks. Racism is racism…PERIOD. It applies to EVERYONE who is discriminated against based on race. There’s nothing “reverse” about it.

It appears that a national sales tax is being considered.

Apparently the out of control spending isn’t tanking the economy fast enough…so now they’ll use taxes to destroy the retail industry? Thanks Obama…you’re my savior…..NOT!

Are you liberals content with that kind of shameful corruption, so long as it comes from your boy?

Of course they are. It’s all about payback for the folks that helped get the Obamaliar elected. Sad thing is, this will be the end of GM. I’ll never buy another GM car knowing that the company is owned and being run by two of the most corrupt organizations in the country…the government and the unions.
