Kathie Lee Gifford, Sweatshop Goddess, Weighs in on Bush Bailout

written by The Union Girl at Friday, December 19, 2008

I couldn't believe my ears. I just had to transcribe it:

other chick: ...He didn't like calling it a bailout cause that sounds like here's a pile of money

Kathie Lee: A three month loan

other chick: It's a loan and it's a 17-18 billion so

Kathie Lee: To get their act together within the next3 months

Other chick: And they have to restructure, and like here's the deal, it's not like, here's the money, and do what you will with that.

Kathie Lee: and good luck it's not good luck

other chick: and they have to restructure by march and play by March.

Kathie Lee (making no sense at all): But what else could they really do? You know? I've I I I don't understand quite yet the specifics of how it's going to affect the UAW, but it will be fascinating.

other chick: it will be interesting to see and he (meaning Bush) was saying about car companies going belly up, going bankrupt, is not an option

Kathie Lee: yeah,

other chic: especially, not now. and and people everywhere are conscious about it. people who do have money and who are shopping are

Kathie Lee: are embarrassed by it

other chick: right
