First, they came for the pick-ups, hummers, and SUVs,
     I said nothing because I don't drive one, and my wheels got 45 mpg.

Then, they came for the smokers,
     I said nothing because I don't smoke.

Then, they came for the fatties and unhealthy,
     I said nothing because I'm on a diet.

Then, they came for the Christians and holy-rollers,
     I said nothing because I'm not a holy-roller.

Then, they came for talk radio, and FOX news,
     I said nothing because that can't happen in America.

Then, they came for the Jews,
     I said nothing because we are a nation that values diversity.

When they came for me, I was alone...

Instead of coming for the pick-ups, Obama Motor's spent billions in Mexico to create a new 8 cylinder vehicle, maintaining foreign jobs, while millions of Americans remain on unemployment.

Quote
MEXICO CITY (Dow Jones)--U.S. automobile giant General Motors Co. said Tuesday it plans to invest close to $500 million in its Ramos Arizpe plant in northern Mexico to produce a new line of engines as well as a new vehicle.

Of that amount, the company is investing $284 million to manufacture eight-cylinder engines with spark-ignition direct-injection technology, known as SIDI, Grace Lieblein, chief executive of GM de Mexico, said at an event.

"We estimate that these technologies allow for a 9% improvement in fuel efficiency from current engines," Lieblein said, adding that the investment will directly create 390 jobs in Coahuila state, where Ramos Arizpe is located.

No jobs for Americans - they're too stupid according to some in Washington to know what's good for them.
