3. Such Pessimism!
How can you say that about our Dear Leader's wonderful economy?

The discharged workers will all become consultants, founding new businesses, ushering in a New Era of popular entrepreneurship!

Glory unto the Dear Leader!

(Yes, I'm being sarcastic, just in case there is any doubt.)

2. How many of them were from the EV project and the Fuel Cell Project
Edited on Sun Mar-20-05 06:44 PM by Coastie for Truth
or GM's own "too little - too late" hybrid EV project.

Good places to cut -- weren't going to use that technology anyway.

Who won WW2? Wakarimasen desune ka?

4. IF they are representative of our plant...
most of them probably don't vote.

And there are plenty of them that do vote the right way.
