One of the reasons Ford can depend on me to be a repeat customer is because they took no bailout, and are a well run company. On the other hand, a snowball has a better chance in the Sahara Desert than Government Motors has of me ever buying a piece of GM junk. It’s never going to happen.
Ford is in hot water with Comrade Obama for refusing to take a bailout. Don’t kid yourself, he very much wants to control Ford like he does GM. But this isn’t the first time Ford has the ire of a tyrannical regime, FDR didn’t like them either and tried to starve them out of business for not playing ball. What? You didn’t know FDR was a douchebag? You actually think he was a great president and human being? Let me guess, you were educated in public school after the US Dept. of Education was created. Am I right? Of course I am.
America is still fighting over President Obama’s costly bailout of Chrysler and General Motors. Especially the owners of Ford, the only member of Detroit’s “Big Three” who rejected the government dole and emerged perfectly healthy.
In its most political ad in the so-called “Drive One” ads where real drivers are thrust before cameras to explain why they picked Ford, a real Ford F-150 pick-up driver is featured…
Sitting and looking sincere and serious, Chris says: “I wasn’t going to buy another car that was bailed out by our government. I was going to buy from a manufacturer that’s standing on their own: win, lose, or draw. That’s what America is about is taking the chance to succeed and understanding when you fail that you gotta’ pick yourself up and go back to work. Ford is that company for me.”
Yup! Exactly how America is supposed to be.
A Ford spokeswoman confirmed that Chris is an actual Ford owner and that those are his real words (the ad series is all unscripted).
Hey! Speaking of bailouts… Did anyone get a check in the mail from GM yet? Oh! Silly me. We aren’t getting any checks in the mail from GM, all that money went to big labor. Here’s some more good news:
According to a government report, taxpayers will lose $14 billion in the bailout.
