Laid-off Yahoos packing heat for Jerry Yang? Maybe. How these former employees put up the utter asshattery of this company is beyond understanding.

GM lawyers up →
Never a good sign. Worst case GM goes bust and they sell off the valuable segments: GM / GMC trucks, Cadillac - luxury cars, GM / Pontiac pony cars, Corvette on it’s own. That’s leaves Saturn, Buick, Saab, etc to rot. Holden and Opel would probably survive with foreign help.

GM offers to cut brands, salaries and jobs in $12... →
GM says they disparately need a $12 million federal bridge loan. The revised plan involves new models for Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick and GMC; specialty items for Pontiac; Saab and Hummer under “strategic review” and no mention of Saturn.
