Obama fires Inspector GeneralFollow

It's really very simple. KJ was an Obama donor. Anyone who attacks KJ, whether right or wrong, Obama is going to destroy. No different than Obama targeting auto dealers who supported the GOP and shutting them down exclusively, regardless of productivity.

KJ didn't even win a championship.

Locked,



Here ya go;



Change you can believe in.

What a surprise the MSM isn't covering this.

"It shouldn't be any surprise, by the way, that car dealers tend to vote -- and donate -- Republican. They are usually male, they are usually older (you don't own an auto dealership in your 20s), and they have obvious reasons to be pro-business, pro-tax cut, anti-green energy and anti-labor. Car dealerships need quite a bit of space and will tend to be located in suburban or rural areas. I can't think of too many other occupations that are more natural fits for the Republican Party. Unfortunately, while we are still a nation of drivers, we are not a nation of dealers."

(T)he argument for closure has nothing to do with whether any particular dealership is profitable, but whether it is one more than somebody thinks Chrysler or GM should have in order to spread sales like Toyota does it.

When the Examiner launched in late 2005, Washington City Paper writers Erik Wemple and Jeff Horwitz surveyed Washington, D.C. neighborhoods and discovered that free home delivery of the Examiner occurred in exclusively white, affluent neighborhoods, while "majority-black neighborhoods are lucky to get even spotty service."

Here ya go;

A meme that is currently picking up traction in the conservative blogosphere is that the list of dealerships to be shuttered as a result of Chrysler's bankruptcy contains a disproportionate number donors to Republican candidates. There have been furious efforts to prove this contention by looking up campaign contributor lists at the Huffington Post, Open Secrets, and other places.

There is just one problem with this theory. Nobody has bothered to look up data for the control group: the list of dealerships which aren't being closed. It turns out that all car dealers are, in fact, overwhelmingly more likely to donate to Republicans than to Democrats -- not just those who are having their doors closed.
[...]
Overall, 88 percent of the contributions from car dealers went to Republican candidates and just 12 percent to Democratic candidates. By comparison, the list of dealers on Doug Ross's list (which I haven't vetted, but I assume is fine) gave 92 percent of their money to Republicans -- not really a significant difference.

There's no conspiracy here, folks -- just some bad math.

Because they're not allowing anyone to investigate it.

I'm willing to bet that the bulk of dealers that support the Republicans are likely to enjoy their trucks and large vehicles. Those are going to be the exact dealers that are performing poorly in the new auto industry climate. Not to mention the fact that the bulk of dealers are conservative to begin with.

I spent 14 years working for dealers, every one I met was quite conservative. You couldn't close dealers and NOT be targeting Republicans.
