I'd say the growing number of foreign owners taking over American businesses and industries is testament to the sad failure of the American business model all on its own.

No thoughts on this?

Mezz, why would you be so dishonest as to plagiarize the words of another person?
I have respect for differing points of view, but I have absolutely no respect for the lack of honesty and integrity of one who plagiarizes.
I'll remember from now on that there is no credibility in the words you post.

No reason for Dave to be sorry. The Browns are 3 hours away in Baltimore.

Okay, so the suppliers would have received cents on the dollar from their dying/dead customers. Teeee-rific!

And their future orders would have come from whom, exactly?

Horseshit as usual, Whell.

Worth every cent when you consider the alternative.

Its horseshit if you're a horse's ass. Using DIP financing supports Ch 11 reorg as well. The suppliers would still have business with GM and Chrysler following a reorg. Did you read my post, or did you need to wait for the version with pictures?

There's 20 minutes I'll never get back. This place has turned into a loony bin for lefties. If you sit and read this entire thread from beginning to end, you notice the guys on the right trying to reason, while the lefties just toss insults. If you ask me, this is very telling. I believe the original topic was super pack ads being ridiculous and misleading. I noticed yesterday that it didn't take long to get Granny thrown off the cliff after Ryan was tapped. The sad thing is, those types of ads do exactly what they are intended to do, scare the hell out of our elderly folks. It's obvious to me that the left will stop at nothing to obtain votes, and I mean nothing. Just one simple question if any of you leftists can stop hurling insults long enough to answer it; Why have I not seen a single ad where Obama runs on his accomplishments? That's not a trick question, I'd really like an answer. When I see Obama campaigning, his tactics and general persona make me feel terrible. What I saw this last weekend with Romney and Ryan made me feel good about America, and our chances to recover.

OK, let the name calling and insulting begin.

1. I doubt you watch anything but Faux News so your field is limited.
2. It's hard to run on a halftime score starting the game down 3 TDs.

But, most importantly, it won't get votes due to Republican smear and white noise.

Kill the white noise than debate Romney into the ground.
