We're from the government and we're here to help you
WASHINGTON – In a defining moment for American capitalism, President Barack Obama ushered General Motors Corp. into bankruptcy protection Monday and put the government behind the wheel of the company that once symbolized the nation's economic muscle.
The fallen giant, the largest U.S. industrial company ever to enter bankruptcy, is shedding some 21,000 jobs and 2,600 dealers. Sparing few communities, the retrenchment amounts to one-third of its U.S. work force and 40 percent of its dealerships.
"We are acting as reluctant shareholders because that is the only way to help GM succeed," Obama said of the temporary nationalization of the 100-year-old company.
Obama lauded what he called a "viable, achievable plan that will give this iconic American company a chance to rise again" as GM followed Chrysler LLC into bankruptcy court. Of Detroit's "Big Three" automakers, only Ford Motor Corp. has avoided bankruptcy restructuring and has not taken federal bailout money.

But thanks anyway
Bubba was driving down the street looking for a parking place. Looking up to heaven he said, "Lord take pity on me. If you find me a parking place I will go to church every Sunday for the rest of my life and give up beer and bacon!"
Miraculously, a parking place appeared. Bubba looked up again and said, "Never mind, I found one."

Groan......
A young Okie girl was getting married and her mother said "I'd better have a talk with you before your wedding night."
"Yeah ma, what do you want to talk about?" the girl asks.
"Well, on the night you get married, your husband is gonna want to put his most prized possession where you pee" the mother says.
The daughter replies "Why in the fuck would he want to put his hound dog in the sink...?"

Yeah. What he said.

"It was true that I didn't have much ambition, but there ought to be a place for people without ambition, I mean a better place than the one usually reserved.
"How in the hell could a man enjoy being awakened at 6:30 a.m. by an alarm clock, leap out of bed, dress, force-feed, shit, piss, brush teeth and hair, and fight traffic to get to a place where essentially you made lots of money for somebody else and were asked to be grateful for the opportunity to do so?"
-- Charles Bukowski - Factotum, 1975
You don't know how much I agree with this right now, Yolo. Thanks for sending it along.
