Ford Soon to Surpass GM

Written By : Dave Blount

Rather than using bankruptcy to free themselves from the union contracts bleeding them dry, GM and Chrysler knuckled under and were absorbed by Chairman Zero’s socialist blob. Consequently, they are on the road to oblivion. Conversely, Ford held out against the heavy-handed “bailouts,” earning it great respect from the public. Soon GM will be a fading speck in Ford’s rearview mirror:

A leading economic forecasting firm [Global Insight] sees an anemic recovery in new car sales over the next 18 months, but a stronger rebound after 2012 when Ford’s market share in the U.S. will surpass General Motors and narrowly trail Toyota’s.

Ford has stood up to Big Government before, most famously when Henry Ford derided the Blue Eagle symbolizing FDR’s thuggish attempts to lord it over the auto industry as “Roosevelt’s buzzard.” By staving off Comrade Obama’s socialist power grabs, it has established itself as the only truly American car company.

For its part, Government Motors has rolled out its new 2010 BS Class Hybrid:

I saw somewhere that GM September sales were down 45% from last year, Chryslers were down 42% and Ford's were down 5%. Considering that last years sales figures were enough to throw GM and Chrysler into bankruptcy, it probably won't be too much longer before these two are completely out of business. But thankfully, President Obama has handed billions to the unions to prop them up for a couple of years and stave off the huge economic blows until after the 2010 elections.

And it can't be all Republicans that are staying away from Government Motors. I believe that Democrats are also pissed off at the bailouts. Thankfully, they will just blame this on Bush, so Obama will never be blamed for it.
