Corker Called on his Hypocracy

Did you ever notice how all the Republicans who voted against the stimulus and the auto industry bail-out are the first to show up for the photo ops when the bail-outs work?  So did the United Auto Workers of Tennessee.  It seems that GM has re-opened it's Spring Hill, TN plant and re-hired 483 workers.  This is the same GM that wouldn't exist without a massive federal bail-out.  Senator Bob Corker, who voted against the bail-out, was only too happy to show up for the good times and pretend he didn't do everything in his power to prevent keep people in Tennessee out of work.  Then a little justice happened.  He was booed.  He, along with Sen. Lamar Alexander and Rep. Marsha Blackburn, all of whom voted against the bail-out, were booed by workers who remember who's on their side and who's not.  483 Tennesseans are employed tonight.  No thanks to Bob Corker.
