Question: Was it sinful for Obama to terminate 787 Chrysler & 661 GM auto dealers who contributed Republican?
Chrysler’s Railroad
This could be a scandal of epic proportions and one that makes Nixon’s Watergate or Clinton ‘so Monica Lewinsky affair pale by comparison Why was there neither rhyme nor reason as to which dealerships of the Chrysler Corporation were to be closed? Roll the clock back to the weeks just before Chrysler declared bankruptcy. Chrysler, like GM, was in dire financial straits and federal government “graciously” offered to “buy the company” and keep them out of bankruptcy and “save jobs.” Chrysler was, in the words of Obama and his administration, “Too big to fail,” same story with GM.
The feds organized their “Automotive Task Force” to fix Chrysler and GM. Obama, in an act that is 100% unconstitutional, appointed a guy named Steve Rattner to be the White House’s official Car Czar – literally, that’s what his title is. Rattner is the liaison between Obama, Chrysler, and GM..
Initially, the national media reported that Chrysler had made this list of dealerships. That is not true. The Washington Examiner, Newsmax, Fox New and a host of other news agencies discovered that the list of dealerships was put together by the “Automotive Task Force” headed by no one other than Mr Steve Rattner.
Now the plot thickens. Remember earlier we said that there was neither rhyme nor reason why certain dealerships were closed? Actually there’s a very interesting pattern as to who was closed down. Again, on May 27, 2009, The Washington Examiner and Newsmax exposed the connection. Amazingly, of the 789 dealerships closed by the federal government, 788 had donated money, exclusively to Republican political causes, while contributing nothing to Democratic political causes. The only “Democratic” dealership on the list was found to have donated $ 7,700 to Hillary’s campaign, and a bit over $ 2,000 to John Edwards. This same dealership, reportedly, also gave $ 200.00 to Obama’s campaign. Does that seem a little odd to you?
Steve Rattner is the guy who put the list together. Well, he happens to be married to a Maureen White. Maureen happens to be the former national finance chairman of the Democratic National Committee. As such, she has access to campaign donation records from everyone in the nation, Republican or Democrat. But of course, this is just a wacky “coincidence,” we’re certain.
Then comes another really wacky “coincidence.” On that list of dealerships being closed down, a weird thing happened in Arkansas , North Louisiana, and Southern Missouri . It seems that Bill Clinton’s former White House Chief of Staff, Mack McClarty, owns a chain of dealership in that region, partnered with a fellow by the name of Robert Johnson Johnson happens to be founder of Black Entertainment Television and was a huge Obama supporter and financier. These guys own a half dozen Chrysler stores under the company title of RLJ-McClarty-Landers. Interestingly, none of their dealerships were ordered closed – not one! While all of their competing Chrysler/Dodge and Jeep dealership were! Eight dealerships located near the dealerships owned by McClarty and Johnson were ordered shut down. Thus by pure luck, these two major Obama supporters now have virtual monopoly on Chrysler sales in their zone. Isn’t that amazing? Go look in The Washington Examiner, the story’s there, and it’s in a dozen or so other web-based news organizations; this isn’t being made up.
Now if you thought Chrysler was owned by Fiat, you are mistaken. Under the federal court ruling, 65% of Chrysler is now owned by the federal government and the United Auto Workers union-Fiat owns 20%. The other 15% is still privately owned and presumably will be traded on the stock market. Obama smiles and says he doesn’t want to run the auto industry.
As horrifying as this is to comprehend, and being as how this used to be the United States of America , it would appear that the president has the power to destroy private businesses and eliminate upwards of 100,000 jobs just because they don’t agree with his political agenda. This is Nazi Germany stuff, and it’s happening right here, right now, in our back yard. There are voices in Washington demanding an explanation, but the “Automotive Task Force” has released no information to the public or to any of the senators demanding answers for what has been done. Keep your ear to the ground for more on this story. If you’ve ever wanted to make a difference about anything in your life, get on the phone to your national senator or representative in the House and demand an investigation into this.
Benjamin Franklin had it right when he said, “All that’s necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.”
Car Czar No More
An amazing thing happened as this story was going to press. Obama’s Car Czar, Steve Rattner, resigned on July 13 and was promptly replaced by former steel workers union boss Ron Bloom.
According to CBS News,
BTW: No one complains when tax-payers who contribute all their lives to support the government have bad periods and receive subsistence.
Likewise, shouldn’t the government help industries in an HONEST manner who gave billions and made it strong?

This isn’t the political section and this looks like misinformation
Question: How can Obama call Health Care our “Moral Obligation” when he has proven to be “immoral” about it?
First .. he lied to America … several times.
Obama: “Congress exempted Medicare from being able to NEGOTIATE for the cheapest available price. And that was a PROFOUND MISTAKE.”
….. and then he does exactly that same PROFOUND MISTAKE…..
August 2009
..a White House deputy chief of staff, Jim Messina, confirmed in an e-mail message on Wednesday that the White House shared the drug lobbyists’ interpretation of the deal: that any health care overhaul would NOT include allowing direct government NEGOTIATION of drug prices or require certain additional price rebates.
His campaign rhetoric … [more lies .. read 'em!] …
Obama: “We WILL BREAK the stranglehold that a few BIG DRUG and insurance companies have on the health care market.”
Obama: “We’re not going to get change unless we can OVERCOME the RESISTANCE the DRUG COMPANIES, …”
And he knew….
October 2008
If Barack Obama wins Nov. 4, it’s the pharma industry that stands to take the biggest hit, according to Boston Consulting Group. Its analysis concludes that Obama’s plan to let the federal government negotiate Medicare drug prices could cut industry revenues by a whopping $ 10 billion to $ 30 billion.
Knowingly refusing to “do the right thing” to curb the high cost of medical care and doing exactly the opposite in exchange for a $ 150 million ego-soothing “gift” is about as “immoral’ as he can get.
“breaking the stranglehold” and “overcoming the resistance” of the drug companies… kicked to the curb like so much else connected to Obama.

Question: What happened to the “big table” Obama promised we would have healthcare negotiations around?
“I’m going to have all the negotiations around a big table. We’ll have doctors and nurses and hospital administrators. Insurance companies, drug companies — they’ll get a seat at the table, they just won’t be able to buy every chair. But what we will do is, we’ll have the negotiations televised on C-SPAN, so that people can see who is making arguments on behalf of their constituents, and who are making arguments on behalf of the drug companies or the insurance companies. And so, that approach, I think is what is going to allow people to stay involved in this process.”

Ironically, not only did it not get on CSPAN (ever) but the drug/insurance companies and lobbyist actually DID buy all the seats at the table.
What happened??
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/09/18/baucus-bill-sticks-to-pha_n_290639.html
The bill unveiled by Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus has been blasted as a major giveaway to insurance companies. But the even bigger winners are the drug makers.
That’s because the Baucus bill matches up, nearly to the letter, with the secret deal that he, the White House and Big Pharma struck over the summer — a deal the various parties roundly denied had been struck when it went public.
In August, the Huffington Post published a memo that outlined exactly what each side was going to do for the other. And Big Pharma was getting a lot more than they were giving up.
Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America senior vice president Ken Johnson said that the outline “is simply not accurate.” White House spokesman Reid Cherlin concurred: “This memo isn’t accurate and does not reflect the agreement with the drug companies.”
But now that the bill is out, let’s fact check those denials.

At a meeting last April with corporate lobbyists, aides to President Barack Obama and Sen. Max Baucus (D-Mont.) helped set in motion a multimillion-dollar advertising campaign, primarily financed by industry groups, that has played a key role in bolstering public support for health care reform.
The role Baucus’s chief of staff, Jon Selib, and deputy White House chief of staff Jim Messina played in launching the groups was part of a successful effort by Democrats to enlist traditional enemies of health care reform to their side. No quid pro quo was involved, they insist, as do the lobbyists themselves.
