A Requiem for U.S. Automakers
Posted: November 23, 2008
Will Congress give them a brake?…
Ford and Chrysler (GM too)
fear the future. Are they through?
Can these automakers brake
and turn this thing around?
Not without some bailout bucks,
can they make more cars and trucks.
Honest engine? So they claim,
clutching at their hearts.
Why is it the Japanese
roll out hybrids with such ease?
Look how far Detroit has tanked
since it all began.
In his grave Hank Ford is turning
as he hears what Honda's earning.
All the while his factories close
and dealers call it quits.
Can't this motor trend be stalled?
Why aren't we much more appalled?
Are we not Americans?
We've been called to lead!
