Question for Hugo Obama

IF we are broke, am I wrong in wondering why the Obama administration (another $4 billion to GM last week, for example) is pumping billions of money we don't have into a company that is almost certainly going to file for chapter 11 bankruptcy protection anyway? (Is it true that O plans to own and drive one of those Chrysler/Fiat hybrids that run on ethanol made from Dukakis's Belgian Endive?)
