you shouldnt because lets be honest. they deserve it. I think its great that they are making great cars now and started making payments for the "loan". but they did deserve that nick name.


but dont worry, give it a few years or decade and people wont remember it

So do I. It's ignorant and asinine.

But you need to let it go...soon enough it won't be a factor.

The first place I heard that was at my Saturn dealership right after the bailout...uh I mean "Government loan", someone there had actually made a Sign and posted it on the wall... I thought it was just a funny joke...

I always look at it as a compliment. GM afterall, seems to be the only people capable of making a car fit for the Commander and Chief.

Presidents almost exclusively ride in Cadillacs. I think there has been one Ford on the last 50 years. A Lincoln.

Obama drove a Chrysler 300C before he was elected President.

And drives a Mariner Hybrid now.

But his presidential limousine is still a heavily armored Cadillac built on a GM medium-duty truck platform.

And let's not forget the vehicle of choice when you need to capture someone and take them away for a very long time...

What really chaps my britches is the people that say somehow the Government is bashing Toyota unjustifiably hard because they are part owners of GM and Chrysler.

Keep in mind, 305, it's really a lack of originality to turn General Motors into Government Motors. G.......General.............Hmmmmmm............... what else starts with G, ah haaaaaaa. Government Motors. Psshhhhhhh
