Stupid. His petty attacks are childish. he needs to stay away from politics and focus on running the business.

That's very hard given GM's current situation.

So how about the mods lay off us barely mentioning politics when the CEO of gm is doing it. And this bodes well for the Camaro and gm in general. Thank God for some sanity. We don't need government forcing our car companies to make Eco cars and firing CEOs per the daughter I'd the CEO who was fired through facebook

Go gm!

not really. How hard is it to run your business and not rally for a specific political party. He's only adding to the GM political stigma that they should be pulling away from right now.

He wasn't there when gm was being fed. And unfortunately the last 2 administrations were involved in the bailouts

It's very hard when your whole existence was saved by political motivation; politics now go hand and hand with GM. I'll agree though he's only adding to the situation and should stay away from publicly discussing politics.

Go gm!
He never mentioned politics on Camaro5

And we won't be changing our policy on politics here any time soon.


That said, to everyone:
Can the political talk

I do understand though in business and entertainment it's not good business to polarize audience or customers. But at this point these comments help gm

By making them look a tad bit like arrogant chest-puffers? Not so much....

Remember, the country is split pretty evenly in terms of political "allegiance" (such a stupid concept I have to put quotes around it). The best thing a CEO can do is not make mention of it one way or the other...just like this site! Huh, fancy that.

Ah well. We'll see how his "attack" plan works....and I do hope it works...
