I like how GM's recall was conveniently announced right after the Chile earthquake, so that it gets buried in the headlines.

I can guarentee that GM did not "wait" for a disaster to put out a recall. This was in the works for years. Knowing how most car companies operate, they wait until the government gets involved and forces them to recall something or force a recall themselves if the cost to replace X number of units in the field later on will be too excessive.

What the motherfucking hell does Obama have to do with the Cobalt recall?
Really? I know there's a lot of crosstalk here. Some of it is so fucking stupid, it's hard not to point out, I guess.

Yeah, so now it is jokingly called "Government Motors" and Obama (being that he is head of the govt) is the head of it. |
