Big 3 Bailout Blunder

After two weeks of news about how bad Chrysler, Ford, and General Motors are doing, they finally had their day in Washington yesterday, and they screwed up Big Time. Would you believe the three CEO's arrived separately in private jets!! That's about $30,000 a piece, gone in the blink of an eye-- and yes, our tax dollars paid for it. Imagine my amusement when they were actually questioned about the jets; of course there was nothing any of them could say. At one point they were even asked to raise their hands if they would give up the jets in order to raise capitol for their companies; "let the record show no one has raised their hands," was the comment that ended that awkward silence. I am happy to say Congress has decided not to even vote on this automotive bailout until these companies get their act together. Score one for the little guy :)
