GM DEALERSHIP CLOSURES BASED ON RACE, GENDER

From American Thinker via Instapundit--The inspector general overseeing the closure of GM's dealerships has a report that will raise an eyebrow or two, and it couldn't come at a worse time for our Obama. The IG, Neil Barofsky, will either be fired or promoted for this report. Whatever the outcome, the media will be busy elsewhere.

-"[D]ealerships were retained because they were ... minority- or woman-owned dealerships";

-Thousands of jobs were lost, unnecessarily, due specifically to Obama's "mandate for shared sacrifice";

-A disproportionate number of Obama-forced closings were of rural dealerships, in areas unfriendly to Obama, even though such closures could "jeopardize the return to profitability" for GM and Chrysler.
