Bailout. Bankruptcy. Merger.

Those are terms being bandied about as lawmakers, analysts and others try to figure out how to help keep automakers in business.

Too bad "none of the above" isn't an option.

General Motors Corp. and its two Detroit-area rivals - Ford Motor Co. and Chrysler LLC - face grim futures as Congress prepares to take up a multibillion-dollar-bailout package Monday. Plunging sales brought on by gas prices that topped $4 a gallon earlier this year and a continuing credit crunch have battered the industry. . .

God help us all. George W. Bush has destroyed this nation.
