GM Pits Dealers Against One Another

In early July, the General Motors National Dealer Council sent a letter to their remaining dealers, urging them to sign onto the letter which opposes H.R. 2743: The Automobile Dealer Economic Rights Restoration Act of 2009. I am a cosponsor of this legislation, along with 241 other members of Congress who are pursuing this bill so that the closed GM dealers can have their economic rights restored. Essentially, the dealers that have been spared are being urged to shut down the dealers slated for closure once and for all.

What are the consequences if they didn't sign that letter? This sounds like some kind of extortion.

I always thought that Obama was just a slick car salesman.

The White House is rewarding dealerships or dealership owners who contributed to his campaign, and those which did not are being closed down.

Hooray for fairness and transparency.

Honestly, Michelle, how many dealerships are needed to sell overpriced future golf carts? Especially if we mandate 4 people in the cart, 10 on the roof and 20 pushing it for taxpayers money to save on energy. We can have 1 dealership and place it the White House. in fact we should ask people to move into the White House to live and work there so we can save even more.
