Someone set up us the Obama!
Context! I don't need no damn context!
You have no chance to survive make your time.
I see Michael Moore says its GM's fault the employees are divorced, drug-using alcoholics. Just a thought, but if divorced, drug addicted alcoholics have been making the cars, quality control might be explainable.
Just a thought…
Great graphic, no? Yes!
Resistance Is Futile! You Will Be Assimilated!
Just another thought….
Government Motors new “green line” with your choice of tan interior or tan interior:

I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything.
Shareholders, Make your dime.
I'm confused. Is that the Borg from Star Trek, or is it Prince, or is it Obama, or are they all just the same thing?
What you say??
Andrew, sounds like you need context, go to the link on my blog beneath the pic.
Let's see…..
Bride of Frankenstein Hair
Count Dracula Cape
Evil Terminator Robot insides
Devil Rams Horns protruding from the neck
Weird Cthulu eyeball peering out from the left
An Obama mask
Let me guess. Oh I know! It's Barney Frank going to a Halloween party at the club!
What do I win?
You know what he doing.
Dig the graphic Chuck! My bet Barry is part of the Borg his love of the collective, and all. A banner day for America a man that hasn’t turned a profit, hell he hasn’t run ice-cream truck. Is going to run General Motors, it should be amusing.
Hmmm, learn something new every day. I still think it looks like Prince.
It's from an old video game called "Zero Wing."
Take off every Zig…except he won't be able to, after he cuts the defense budget.
For great justice!
Great pic
Zero Wing. The gift that keeps on giving.
Let's just hope that the government runs GM as smoothly and efficiently as it runs everything else.
Where have I seen that? Japanese?
BEAUTIFUL!
Nice job Chuck
The new Dr. Strangelove…the mainstream media with every fascist move that the Obama Administration makes must have so many thrills running up their legs- those guys in the liberal media must have to run home and change their panties every few minutes, and you can imagine what happens to them when he takes off his shirt…of course, the original Strangelove was nothing but a fictitious character- but so is Obama- the guy's far worse than simply an empty suit- he's a puppet…all he really seems to know how to do himself is party.
In the White House- when he's even there, he probably runs around singing "GONNA DANCE LIKE IT'S 1999", this charlatan doesn't know what year it is, and as long as he gets to fly around with his teleprompter and scriptwriters- and party, he doesn't care.
[...] The government, which will own a majority of the company, is wagering upwards of $30 billion that it can return GM to profitability, reversing a decades-long decline by shearing away liabilities and creating a freshly competitive car maker by summer’s end. No TweetBacks yet. (Be the first to Tweet this post) [...]
Excellent.
You are on the way to destruction!
Can you say "overreach"?
Good luck, buds. You're going to be judged on the stimulus and the socialist experiment into banking and auto. Better turn a profit… fast.
I think it looks like The Joker.
Which makes sense. Both The Joker and THE ONE are insane if they think their plans will work.
No, THE ONE is a Gou'ald from Stargate.
For the surprise Barney Frank ending I will award you one nickel for sheer awesomeness.
It's certainly the scariest I've seen in a long time.
How to Save GM?
Twenty years ago I was walking down Church St. Toronto, the center of the gay community. The gay men were wearing large shorts with leg pockets. I found it odd. Five yrs later the straight community were wearing the same shorts. In short, if the gay community takes to the new insect looking cars, in about five years the rest of the population will follow suit.
Saving GM.
All the new fuel efficient cars somehow have come to resemble INSECTS. Cars used to look like tigers, birds or vaginas. In the mood for fortelling the future, I imagine PBS and the major networks pumping the airwaves with cute cuddly stories about "Our Friends" the much maligned insect.
Hollywood will do its part, producing films where the hero is a mutant insect, with a big heart, who spends his/her time saving the planet, of course feeding on the rich.
You know, I don't see much difference in this graphic from what he really is. Why do I feel as if the white house has been invaded by Cylons?
You have a proscription for that stuff?
You Americans need to create a monster robot to beat the liberal Democrats. Start cracking.
It is Number 44 as the Prince Borg, soon to be revealed in the new Star Trek movies, as soon as they explain the who and how of going back in time to stop the Borg Queen before the the new movie even takes place. The resulting disruption in the space-time continuum has already lead to a Klingon in the White House who is paired to a disoriented Vulcan who assumes he must be superior because the computer (actually the TelePrompter) says he is. Come to think of it, I guess the new timeline would not allow a cerebral Picard therefore the Queen was not stopped per se, but was caught up in the spacial-chronal turbulence and has covertly taken over the Vulcan leading to the attempted remaking of America as a communist/socialist country in preparation for when technology advances to allow the forming of a true Collective.
Hell, enough of that crap. Phasers on kill, we move on the White House now!
Ford, Toyota, and Nissan sure hope so. Maybe Mitsubishi might even have a chance to expand beyond the big cities. Did not Suzuki start selling vehicles over here again?
I have yet to notice butt-less leather chaps to be a major new fashion statement, not even for parades, therefore there are boundaries even straight men will not cross. It is hard to even find too many pick ups with shorter than an 8 foot bed (size of a full sheet of plywood), unless they are for going to and from work and they only want some "just in case" room, so "manly men" period are not going to be fond of the new micro-boxes, as if they ever were.
Form Blazing Sword!
Last I heard, THE ONE is going to make it so Toyota and other foriegn car makers can't get their cars into the US. Can Obama just up and do that? Doesn't he need approval from congress?
We know he doesn't respect whats in the Bill of RIghts. Does he also doesn't respect what's in the entire constitution as well?
Sorry but national security takes precedence. It is already completed and was set to be deployed against Iran after the new Transformers movie was released so both the media and the UN will assume Dinnerjacket has completely lost it when he complains about what destroyed their peaceful nuclear program, but now that NK is acting up we have to rethink strategy and re-prioritize targets.
60 rising to perhaps 70% government ownership and complete control of GM with as soft a landing as possible for the unions vs a standard restructuring bankruptcy, that is what you need to "get." Toss in that cars like the Chevy Volt would never make it in a true competitive market, therefore the entire market is being moved away from true competitive, by the forced manufacture by GM of "green" vehicles as well as hiking the mileage rules over an unreasonable timeframe. Which is the revealed part of the planned enforced push to "save the planet" by locking in environmentalist votes while making AlGore's company (and others) many billions of American dollars. It will have to be very much many as the coming inflation will severely knock down the actual worth of a dollar.
No GM, no Chevy, no Volt, no cars to practically give away until people become used to accepting "needed" compromises like much more of your earnings going to the "hidden taxes" of the "green scheme." What is there that is hard to "get?"
No, Syvyn11!!! The "ONE" does not respect the Constitution! He and his cronies in the congress are all communists and socialists who want to eradicate the constitution. Half the stuff they are doing now would be considered tyranny and against the constitution. It is only going to get worse, unless we start the revolution!! I am ready for the next Tea Party and the march on DC…………………………….Butterfly
Hahaha. I recognize the quote… there are some great ones if you search the interwebs.
Nice work, Chuck. Now, move "zig". For great justice.
That is a new one, can you post a link?
I just reviewed the Wikipedia CAFE standards article. The two-fleet rule the UAW pushed through (Calculation section) has long penalized American makers by forcing them to make unprofitable small cars in the US. Now we have seen where that leads. It makes sense they will have to try something to keep GM going, or should I say keep the remaining union people working, but on a more profitable basis than before. Keeping the best small-car competitors out may seem smart to the current Administration, they could cite low supply and charge more, until they hear from our trading partners in the world debt markets. I was checking the CAFE standards for certain changes, now that the EPA has declared carbon dioxide a dangerous pollutant an executive branch exclusion move might be tried by changing certain emissions standards.
i want my yugo!
But sometimes a product suffers a backlash if its identified as a "gay" product, or something that homosexuals prefer. Particularly if it's a big ticket item. The Chrysler PT Cruiser was one, and there are other products that get that stigma of being identified with homosexuals that effects sales, sometimes positively, usually negatively.
I must have missed the press release, I see more than a few of those PT Cruisers around yet never heard of a gay connection. I had heard Chrysler shot themselves in the foot by offering discounts from Day 1, severely underestimating the popularity and missing out on much profit. The marketing also appears distorted, as every one I have noticed lately says it is "xxxxxxx Edition," too much variety can scare customers away.
I remember tales of Cadillac dealers giving away a Yugo for free with a new Cadillac purchase. The Ford Fiestas lasted much longer. You likely have already gotten your Yugo, if you buy food in cans made of recycled steel.
I got it second hand from my mom.
I'm picturing Liberty Prime from Fallout 3.
Wait Wait I am having a vision, I predict all new GM cars will have those GPS computer tracking chips, of course to keep us safe.
That Obama is so thoughtful.
I just love him.
and how do the other car companies exist when you main competitor gets hundreds of billions in Gov subsidies, huh?
Here's something scarier, you idiot.
Disco, was largely part of the gay culture. But before disco was popular with the gay crowd it was considered black music.
That should scare the crap out of you that a trend that black people like might find its way into you lily white suburban living room.
I will refuse to buy a car built by a company run by union bosses and corrupt politicians and designed by the same folks that can't deliver the mail on time.
Trying, but the laws of physics keep interfering.
Why?
Apparently this government takeover of GM is complicating Obama's plans to keep the White House free of lobbyist influence. See the article here:

Actually, creating a giant robot reminiscent of what appears in Japanese animation is quite inefficient.

If you think the Government running a car company is bad…. JUST WAIT TIL THIS SAME BUNCH ARE RUNNING YOUR HEALTH CARE!
Government Motors & Chystler will die a slow, painful death thanks to the Unions owning the Democrats & President Obama's privates. A quick death would have been better for the country & GM's future might still be bright. Now, GM is going down the event horizon of an endless black hole created by the Unions & the Democrats.
You deserve an award just for that graphic. Brilliant.
(I have a bad feeling part of the Obama strategy is to make it nearly impossible for competing companies to do business in the US. You think the new emissions reqs apply only to GM and Chrysler? How on earth are Kia Nissan Toyota and so on and so on going to respond? Can they comply and stay in business?)
Man Chuck…and I thought I had some obscure references! You're worse than Dennis Miller! LOL
I was thinking Count Chocula, but you beat me to it.. Erm, wait a second.. Oh crap, now I'm a racist..
You must not be an on-line gamer. That YouTube video is legendary, or at least it is to the forum community for my game/crack of choice.
Does Leeeeeeerrrroooy Jeeeennnnkiinnnnsss! Ring any bells?
They're called Czars – which are really just unconfirmed Cabinet Secretaries. He appoints them to bypass the Congressional confirmation process. Does that tell you anything about how much he respects the COTUS. Then there are his remarks about holding people who MIGHT cause trouble indefinitely. He was referring to Gitmo detainees, but that takes his legal powers a step further than even the Bush admin dared to go. Do you remember the targets of the DHS report? Oh yeah, that would be most of us posting here … we might cause trouble someday too. He's given the EPA and the FCC powers to impose regulations that he knows he can't get through Congress.
Yeah, I don't see a whole lot of respect for separation of powers and checks and balances in this guy.
Unless you're "undocumented" and really don't want to learn the English language. Meanwhile, as long as you're receiving government "aid" (aka food stamps, social security, WIC, free tuition or government scholarships) your children, by law, must attend government (aka "public") schools to receive an education (aka social programming).
No, that's not ringing any bells. I'm not really an on-line gamer, though I do enjoy PC and PS2 games.
