They are self-serving hypocrytes with no concern for anybody outside of their own constituants. When they put that ahead of the country as a whole; imo, they're borderline evil.

It's hard to beat the competition when you have CEO's who made these bad decisions leadign us here and workers draining away more money than the competition.
They delayed the first vote so they could get a plan in their hands. They got it, and promptly refused to acknowledge anything in it. 2 of the three CEOs are new as of last year, how could they have screwed anything up? And Wagoner is the best CEO GM's ever seen. More positive changes to the company and their products have been made under him than ever before in recent history. And the worker pay issue is blown out of proportion, if not outright misrepresented.

They want GM recleansed. Management fired, union contracts tore up, and a complete recleansing. It's a Republican thing. I don't know which is the right answer, but they aren't evil...right now 50% of the country says Nay. All we ca hope for is that it all works out in the end.
Too many of them refuse to listen to reason or take an unpopular stance on issues. They're all proposing feel-good resolutions that do nothing but make it look like they're actually making a difference. They're politicians, and can't be trusted to make the right decisions if there's a 'ME' factor they can exploit instead. Mitch Albom's got this head-on.
