When the $700 billion bailout of the banks was passed, the Bush Administration made damned sure that any attempts to limit executive pay were toothless.
Paul Krugman pointed out in his column that it has been confirmed that the neo-Hoovers in the Senate were using the Detroit bailout bill as a bludgeon to break the unions. The focus of his column, though, is on how the German version of the Party of Hoover are doing what they can to sink the European bankruptcy.
Meanwhile, Sen. Corker, (R-Nissan), is apparently doing everything he can to persuade the White House to not help Detroit.
This is just like what happened after Hurricane Katrina; the poor, the middle class, the workers can all go fuck themselves. If you need a paycheck to feed your family, the Bush Administration will never be there for you. But if you run a bank, they will shovel money down your gullet, even if you don't want them to.
The Party of Hoover is just evil. But they will continue to gum up the machinery of government because the spineless fucks in the Democratic leadership of the Senate, led by Harry Reid (D-Cnidaria), are unwilling or unable to do anything.
