Obama’s speech in Michigan today was supposed to be a Townhall. Could it be that it was changed so Michigan citizens could only listen to him read from a teleprompter and not ask him questions?
In his speech he told Michiganians “some of the jobs that have been lost in the auto industry and elsewhere won’t be coming back,” calling them, “casualties of a changing economy.” Hmmm, about 1 year ago John McCain told the same people almost the same exact line. He went on to get his butt kicked in the primary by Mitt Romney. Maybe it’s not a good idea to tell a state with 14.1% unemployment that their jobs ain’t coming back.
He stopped short of telling them that if they wanted to continue to work in the auto industry they might want to consider moving to Huntsville Alabama (Toyota plant), Lincoln Alabama (Honda), Kansas City Missouri (Mazda), Smyrna Tennessee (Nissan) or West Point Georgia (Kia). Hmmm, they seem to be making more cars in the south than in Detroit. Maybe GM, Ford and Chrysler should outsource to the south instead of overseas.
