Got this from my senator...

Thank you for contacting me regarding a financial rescue of the automakers. It is good to hear from you.

The automobile industry has deep seated problems that cannot only be solved by more money. Instead, a restructuring of the industry is needed. I am not in favor of using taxpayer funds to bailout the industry.

For those who vote republican and favor a bailout of the auto industry....your logic is flawed.

While we are referencing political issues and politics, let's make sure those references are clearly Camaro and automotive related, please.

While I respect the fact that this is your site and you make the rules. I am not sure it is fair to have a post asking people to contact their legislators and ask them to support a financial support package and then tell those that don't agree they should not post their opinons or reasons that they are not in support of the effort. I will respect your request and not post my opinons about the matter however I think the original post opens the door to a potentially lively debate with merits on all sides. Since the original post is by its very nature a political question if we want to stay strictly on point to Camaro discussions I would suggest this entire thread has no place on this site.

Thanks

Tom

Tom, thanks for pointing that out. I don't want this one turning into just another political argument that has nothing to do with the automotive industry and is just opinionated bickering that is completely irrelevant to the issue. I clarified my post above.

I don't care about any political aspects of this series of threads. I wrote on this board back in 2006 when everyone was falling over their tongue about the new Camaro that GM was bleeding through every financial hole they had on their corporate body. They had no business entering the muscle car era. Especially with such a poor excuse of a 'retro 1969' design that looked more like a Cadillac CTS with a slightly growly grill. The 2005 Mustang and now Challenge eats GM's lunch in the classic through back lines mixed with the smooth now generation corners.

Now with GM not only bleeding through every oriface they now need money just to buy pens, paper and golden parachutes.

Yeah, I'm sure they are going to show up at Washington next week with a business plan that illustrates they have a plan for more fuel efficient cars - oh, don't mind Congressman about that lil ole 400+ hp rocket we are building.......


Jesus, GM. Make up your mind what are you going to be when you grow up. Cause at the age of 57 I don't have much time left to throw my money around bailing out a bunch of BB sized balled Leadership.
