Some Bootlicking from Automotive News

Since Automotive News is a trade rag, you can expect that it will slavishly repeat whatever its auto-manufacturer (read:  sources of news) tell it to repeat.

And sure enough the news story today is that Buicks from Red China and spare parts built in Lower East Noplace-istan are VITAL, we say VITAL to the future of Detroit's current oligarchs.\

And their dealers, of course.

These damn fools think that you're dumber than they are:

Ford Motor Co. and General Motors each have said the levies have canceled out $1 billion in profit already.....
As we mentioned earlier, that "$1 Billion" needs context, so how about this:  the overall cost-of-doing-business for GM was much, much, much, much moreabout $134 BILLION last year.

The whine from Detroit is obnoxious, especially since in GM's case they're still using taxpayer money to export the jobs.....
