NOTE: this was asked IN the White House press briefing

Fox News Embraces Right-Wing Theory That Obama Is Forcing GOP-Owned Car Dealerships To Close
http://thinkprogress.org/2009/05/28/right-wing-theory-car-dealerships-to-close/

GARRETT: There is some concern in the blogosphere that of the of the Chrysler dealerships being closed, a disproportionate number appear to be in which the operators contributed to Republicans. And hardly which contributed to democrats have been closed down. I’m not saying the White House knows anything about this but would you be concerned about any taint of politics in any of the decisions.

Gibbs: "We don't make those decisions. Okay. Chrysler makes those decisions"

blogosphere-Fox & Friends- Malkin- Major Garrett

well the pools are open now. Looks like the Republicans are diving in the deep end.

3. 92% of Chrysler dealers donated to Republicans
pretty fucking hard to close the ones that donated to Democrats when there are so few.

4. Reminds me of a cheating spouse.

Always accusing others of their own indiscretions.

That is how they roll, they cannot fathom that others don't think like them. That's how they would handle the plan, so Democrats MUST be doing the same thing.

5. "Concern in the blogosphere"
There's concern in the blogosphere that the anti-Christ is here and is some guy named Myatrea too.

Too bad actual reporting never crosses their minds. Then people say "I heard that on the news, it's true!" It is amazing the number of people totally brain-washed by this Fox crap. Sad.

6. That didn't seem to concern Republicon Senator Corker/Porker
when he was out there pushing to close all the American auto factories. If the Republicon News has a problem with Republicon Dealerships closing then maybe their Republicon Senators should not be out there pushing to close factories that are suppling these dealerships.

Thank Corker for this one.

7. This also a must-see
Edited on Fri May-29-09 09:27 AM by rocktivity
And it's called JOURNALISM.

Keith Olbermann found some actual research, and reported that 1) the shutdown affects only Chrysler dealerships; 2) the shutdown affects only 25% of the Chrysler dealerships; and 3) all auto dealers donated to Repubs an average 88% of the time!

P.S. Gibbs should have said that if Fox News is so concerned about the blogosphere's concern, they can have Fox's seat at future press conferences so they can express their concerns directly.

8. KO chewed this talking point up and spit it back in their faces last night.
First off they're almost all Republicans. Second, The GOP voted against saving any of them when they voted against the bailout.

10. This is very popular in Freeperville. Fox News obviously gets
lots of there talking points from a site that even Bill O'Reilly calls outrageous.

12. I still say that it was Clinton's dick that closed the Chrysler dealerships.
You can blame O'bama if you want, but it was Clinton's dick that did it. How quick we forget.
