Obama's New Auto Industry Task Force Shuns Cars From Big 3 Automakers

I found this little gem on Drudge.

The Detroit Free Press has conducted an investigation on what vehicles the current 8 members and 10 aides of the "Presidential Task Force on the Auto Industry" regularly drive.

Among the eight members named Friday to the Presidential Task Force on the Auto Industry and the 10 senior policy aides who will assist them in their work, two own American models. Add the Treasury Department's special adviser to the task force and the total jumps to three.

I wonder what the UAW thugs think about this. After all, they spent all that money from the employees union dues to help elect this hack of a president, and the task force doesn't even purchase "American" autos.

I personally don't have a problem with people purchasing Honda's or Toyota's. In reality, they are more "American" made than many of the autos from the Big 3 automakers. I remember seeing a thing on Fox News a while ago where they were talking about how "American" the Big 3 autos actually are. For example, the Ford Ranger is made with 80% foreign labor and/or parts. The Big 3 is outsourcing work and Toyota and Honda are "insourcing" work. Just something to think about.
