Congressman Ted Poe Accuses Obama Auto Team of Closing GOP Dealerships (video)

Only GM Dealers That Donated To Republicans Were Shut Down! Congressman Ted Poe (video)


The ratio of donations for dealers that were shuttered was 42 to 1, GOP to Democrat.


Additionally, WND analyzes the closings:
But WND reviewed the list of 789 closing franchises and databases of political donors and found that of dealership majority owners making contributions in the November 2008 election, less than 10 percent gifted to Democrats while 90 percent gave substantial sums to Republican candidates.

The listed franchise owners
contributed at least $450,000 to Republican presidential candidates and the GOP, while only $7,970 was donated to Sen. Hillary Clinton's campaign and $2,200 was given to Sen. John Edwards' campaign.

Obama received a combined total of only $450 in donations – $250 from dealer Jane Baldock in Wenatchee, Wash., and $200 from Waco, Texas, dealer Jeffrey Hunter.

Many of the majority owners who donated to Republican campaigns last year also contributed additional thousands to George W. Bush's presidential campaign in 2004 and to help elect GOP representatives.

As a confirmed political hack, if this is true that Obama was able to order the closing of GOP donating dealers, I say good for him.
