President Obama fresh off his Hawaii vacation will be boondoggling in Detroit to boast about how he has revitalized the auto industry. Oddly, he will be doing it at a Ford assembly plant and not one belonging to the automotive companies who needed the taxpayers to bail them out. Also, the plant where he’ll be talking about soaring auto sales is temporarily shut down because demand is lagging.
@markknoller Isn't that the auto company that didn't require a govt bailout and cost us billions?

Oh, the irony: Obama to tout U.S. auto industry turnaround at plant closed for lagging demand for small cars. http://t.co/ZWEHAOcXWf #Wayne
