Email to Senator Shelby (R-AL). He's my Senator, OK???? |

I tend to ignore the "other" one. Sessions (Retarded)
Dear Senator Shelby,
You may want to reconsider your opposition to the auto industry loan package. A large percentage of your constituents are NASCAR fans and would be none to happy if all the cars on the track are Toyotas.
I share your outrage at the Big Three CEOs flying to the Senate hearings in luxury jets.
But, please, sir, consider the millions of American jobs at stake. Alabamians employed by Mercedes, Hyundai and Honda will be fine. Consider, though, that thousands of Alabamians are employed by suppliers to the Big Three. And what about my local Pontiac dealer, from whom we purchased a Grand Prix in 2006.
Now is not the time for political bickering. It's time to support American manfacturing and the workers who make it productive.
My name My town, AL 35XXX
Actually, contrary to common wisdom, Sen Shelby isn't so bad. Sessions, OTOH, :puke:

3. Can't Sessions' (R) be for something else like Reactionary? |
|
People with cognitive disabilities view the "R-word" as an offensive slur akin to the N-word. http://www.r-word.orgCome to think of it, there are probably some self-advocates down there who would make better Senators than Sessions.

Got caught up in the moment. Plus, I'll admit, I've had a couple. :beer:
Um, I'm at my home PC, NOT behind the wheel.

You got THAT right!

Giving it to a dying industry. Failures in business decisions followed by a rigid business plan that can't respond to changes in the market place with unions unwilling to give an inch. Bankruptcy will force needed changes in management as well as union agreements to the benefit of the industry.

6. Classic capitalist economics supports your position |
|
Unfortunately, under current US economic policy, if the Big Three go down, so will the entire economy. From what I've read, I would make the 1930's look like prosperity. Google Paul Krugman.
