bloomberg.com — General Motors Corp., criticized by U.S. lawmakers for its use of corporate jets, asked aviation regulators to block the public?s ability to track a plane it uses. Representatives at the Nov. 19 House hearing faulted Ford and Chrysler for taking private jets to Washington to plead their case. ?Couldn?t you all have downgraded to first class??

That congressional hearing was the biggest joke of 2008. The big three execs just sat their looking at the ceiling and the congressman were asking why there are no blue cars.

It makes more sense for the executives to fly to Washington than drive or tie up security of commercial air craft. What about Nancy Pelosi flying back and forth to California on a 757 at taxpayer cost of $300,000/ trip.(<a class="user" href="http://www.nypost.com/seven/02102007/postopinion/opedcolumnists/air_pelosi_opedcolumnists_richard_miniter.htm)">http://www.nypost.com/seven/02102007/postopinion/o ...</a>

We should give them a loan... AFTER they get through chapter 11 and have proven they can continue operations at a profit.
