Preemptive Bailout


Must be the day for big government news. Congratulations, everybody! You get to provide a loan to yet another automaker...


"Former Vice President Al Gore's campaign to save the planet from global warming has netted him a Nobel Peace Prize, an Academy Award and now $529 million in taxpayer money.
The federal government has loaned $529 million to Fisker Automotive Inc., a small car company backed by Gore to help build a hybrid sports car in Finland that will sell for about $89,000, the Wall Street Journal reported." (FOXNews, 9/26/09)

Our tax dollars at work. Must be nice to be America's con man.
