Footballfan Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Seems that aside from throwing 4 million Americans under the bus, Mr. Shelby has less than a stellar record of protecting American interests- including leaking classified security information to the media.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Shelby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also very seldom reported, if at all, is the suicide rates of returning military vets. Sure once in a great while, you may be lucky to see a couple of sentences on the inside back page of a newspaper of this tragic topic of people losing it, maybe a quick verbal mention on the radio or TV, but THAT'S IT!! If they had their way, if all the Wall Street motherfuckers decided to jump out of office windows in a manner like they did in the Great Depression, they would censor it like you wouldn't believe and deny that it ever happened. And the dumb public wouldn't even have a clue...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You gotta break that down for me. GM Ford and Chrysler employee about 500k. Your assuming they all enter Ch. 7 and somehow destroy another 3.5 Mio other jobs? I gotta hear this. He's not a traitor. He's representing his (American) constituents. Is he a traitor because foreign companies came to america and hired Americans?

One job in a Big Three plant = 7 spinoff jobs. 500,000 X 7 = 3,500,000. If you know how to use a calculator, you can multiply it yourself. By the way, the Upper Midwest is part of the USA not a separate country. Shelby is representing his ALABAMA constituents only. Are not folks from Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, etc Americans too? Your boy is a traitor because he throws Americans under the bus and gives classified info to the media. Are you denying that he was not cited for doing the later?

Turbo350 Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Be nice if the Big 3 told the Nascar teams that they will get no support if they race in Alabama or any other state that opposed the Bridge. Also to would be nice if NASCAR stepped up to the plate and said no races there. Wonder how much income the states would loose from that.

You make the point for people outside the big3,that we are thugs and uneducated. Most of the country is against the bailout to the big3. The federal government doesn't have the money for any of these bailouts,WE ARE BROKE. Doesn't matter if its Dem's or Repub's,both have over spent with NO REDUCTIONS IN SPENDING.

Are you denying that he was not cited for doing the later? 7 spinoff jobs? Prove that. Besides, that 500k number is GLOBAL employment for the D3. Either way you're assuming 100% of the D3 jobs and 100% of spinoff jobs (whatever that number is) disappear . Won't happen. I don't think Ford is even planning to use the money at this point. He's no more a traitor for representing his voters than Michigan senators are for representing us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chicago stamper Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 They asked him @ his news conference today if he had any contact from transfers( Toyota honda mercedes) about the bridge loans. He looked right into the camera and said absoulty not(bullshit) and he would vote against the loans if he had 5 ford and gm plants in his state(bullshit). His smugness and inabaility to be truthful is what makes him an asshole. Just my opinion never trust a man who talks out of the side of his mouth.
