Ford Motor Company - Tell the U.S. Government to Pound Sand


The Ultimate Sale - Lee Iaccoca must be flummoxed by this circus... Chrysler is partially owned by Cerberus GM and is too big for almost ANY company to swallow Ford is still family owned All three presented their Sales Presentation to the United States of America - all three were spurned and sent home packing. What is that old joke about outrunning a bear? 

Ok...let's say you are in the woods with your friends, "GM" and "Chrysler" - you all stumble upon a mamma bear and her cubs. You are "Ford". Each of you knows that the worst thing you can do is run. A bear can get going up to 40 miles an hour - but you run because you know you don't need to outrun the bear, just "GM" or "Chrysler". 

Ford should run from Barney and Pelosi and let GM sell Government Approved, Green SUVs, designed by one of Barney Frank's "nephews". Fords should circle the wagons and take the hits - sell off assets, reduce in size, get rid of the unions(hah! will never happen)and become a "boutique" auto manufacturer like Jaguar - let the other folks build to government spec. 

 Craziness -
