These private jets are worth millions! Is it possible selling the jets could help keep Ford, Chrysler & GM from drowning in debt? what do you think?

I have every bit as low an opinion of their failure to fly commercial or jet-pool as I do of Nancy Pelosi - and any other Congress Critter the shoe happens to fit - doing the same, back and forth between DC and their home state. *Grace*

I wonder if Obama will be as effective as Polosi? I think we should keep the machinists working, but the management apparently failed. I dont think it would be terrible to be managed by Japan. I mean like who can tell a traitor of all these so called Americans that DEMAND your tax money. In true globalization the folks that can best manage auto production will excel. Those who are dead weight will get thrown off the ship.

First Class for $800 bucks! Dam, I sat my ass in coach next to a crying baby. Ok sure the baby was mine, but Dam that crying is loud in a plane. I could have flown first class and had the wife stay in coach with the baby. As for the private jets, I thought they would have driven one of their luxury auto's and car pooled. Then they would have broken down on the side of the road and understood why they are losing money

If your going to do that shit do it right. I would have had John Travolta fly me there.
