And, roll they will. GM turned a huge corner today in posting it’s biggest profit since 2004. GM also went public again…hope everyone knows what this means, but, just in case…it means it’s a “publicly held company,” and not a government-held on, even if it was just partial.
To those who turn all positives into a negative when it threatens to contradict their political viewpoint, I stick my tongue out to you all. I’m looking for and celebrating the good news about GM, and have confidence in the long-term plans set forth by Pres. Obama two 1/2 years ago.
Also to those who say it’s time to forget about the past and blame everything on Pres. Obama, I say you’re nuts. If we do that, the same issues will keep surfacing and hurting us all. Pres. Obama inherited a mammoth disaster, and in spite of constant criticisms and no cooperation, he moved forward with a visionary plan. I am not sorry to see that it’s working, although I know some of you are.
Glorify Bush at your own risk. Intellectuals will not let you twist written history. Be sure of that. Furthermore, this disaster WAS caused by Bush policies, but it is up to Pres. Obama to remedy the situation, and he’s doing a fine job. But those who hate him will continue their ceaseless slanderous opinions. People are catching on now, and more will in the future as it’s fully realized what’s really behind the hate of Obama. Forewarned.
And, finally, to those who think the best path is continued criticism, negativism, and no cooperation, I say that’s your privilege, but trust me, people will eventually want to start feeling good again, and you bitter folks will be left behind in your own little small group. Fair Warning.
