Welcome to the IHoP

Recommended Posts

Now that we've made it through the bailout hearings and the deal between GM and the U.S. Government has been settled (for now), we can start taking a closer look at the details. Oh, here's one: the Feds added one crucial condition to the GM bridge loans, and it was aimed squarely at the unions: no striking.

Besides accepting a reduction of wages and benefits for workers to bring them in line with what foreign-owned plant employees receive, the UAW will not be allowed to strike against the General as long as GM is receiving federal loans.

first thing that came to my mind was "50 cal? 338 Lapua would work just fine".

<--- certified gun nut :(

Laughable at the 'arsenal' of 6 guns, pretty small arsenal. Plus it said he had a .50 caliber muzzle loader. Oh no! We are going old school on the man now...
