Why are you watching Glenn Beck? From what I've witnessed of him while waiting in the bank line, Beck offers no information, no intelligence, and no entertainment. He's just another third-rate cable news talking head.

GM seems like a corporate structure that is akin to an aircraft carrier trying to make a U-turn. It takes lots of time and lots of space to do so. The company has lost money in each of the last four years, and says now that it "may" think about importing some of their German small cars into the US ........in 2010 ! This is the sort of brainpower that has gotten them in the fix they're in.

"Variable valve" was the phrase touted. GM advancing into the '80s. Great job Rick and the Board.

GM needs to make a good in line six, like they did in the 70's and 80's. They got great gas mileage,pulled good and were very dependable. Imagine one with fuel injection and an electronic ignition. But without variable valves and other complicated things would GM dealer service centers go out of business? Sooner or later they will need repairs.

Hach loves Beck because he's the news equivalent of being fed apple sauce by one's mommy.

Which you've somehow confused with Variable Valve Timing.

Which you've somehow confused with Dual Stage AC.

Apparently, I touched on an inconvenient truth. hahahahaha!!!!

Hmmm....Pour piss out of boot! Poor fool!

He seems to contribute to it. People of his low caliber, regardless of their politics, shouldn't have an audience, especially because there are so many better commentators out there.
