Crooks and Liars:
Auto industry CEOs appeared on Capitol Hill today to ask for a $25 billion bailout. Rep. Brad Sherman (D-CA) asked the top execs if they would be willing sell their corporate jets and travel home on commercial flights.
Sherman asked the CEOs, "I'm going to ask you to raise your hand if you are planning to sell your jet in place now and fly back commercial." "Let the record show, no hands went up," noted Sherman
MSNBC's Contessa Brewer and Mike Viqueira discussed the CEOs' lack of response. "I have to tell you, just listening to that is awkward," said Brewer.

I see the Auto Industry who have their own planes no problem if you look at how long the companies been in business. Now the Law Makers saw no problem when they eat on the taxpayers dime, rented expensive cars and much more. But they have room to talk about the car companies. Most of the current Law Makers got and are still getting kick backs as Pelosi got her husband a big contract and all she had to do was take the Bush/Cheney impeachment off the table. The bailout if not only for the car companies but the employees. We had no problem giving AIG 150 billion dollars as they used 1 million to party and then they gave bonues to friends.
