Harry - are you taking notes?
Republicans were preparing a strong fight against the aid plan in the Senate, not only taking on the Democrats but standing in open revolt against their party's lame-duck president on the measure.
The Republicans want to force the companies into bankruptcy or mandate hefty concessions from autoworkers and creditors as a condition of any federal aid. They also oppose an environmental mandate that House Democrats insisted on including in the measure.
Considering that you couldn't even stand up to Joe Lieberman, how do you propose to run the Senate next year when these guys pull this shit over every bill that comes to the floor?

Since 1949, Durhamites have slept soundly, secure in the knowledge that, in our town, erection can be depended upon. Now, thanks to the power of the internets, we can spread that security all over the world.

With regard to the Senate, file it under "what goes around comes around".
With regard to the UAW, why the F should my tax money go to bail out those overpaid thugs. I'm speaking from direct personal experience with that union.
Screw 'em.

I fully support making your personal need for vindictiveness the highest priority when it comes to setting public policy.
I mean, what other choices do we have?
