Edpap Champion Author Pennsylvania Posts:1,527 Points:149,000 Joined:Oct 2011	Message Posted: Feb 6, 2012 4:08:12 PM Ignore Edpap Report Abuse Not on my list of good commercials. judge by actions , not words. America is great, Chrysler doesn't even come close. They will go out of business once again, the next time the economy hits a big pot hole. Good mangement is not in the comic books they read...and Fiat would have never left the US market if quality had been part of its vocabulary.

Clint Eastwood is a great actor and director in my opinion but he was "played" by Fiat and NObama into making the WORST commercial during the Super Bowl. He did a two minute socialist rant about an Italian Company!<< Van_Halen; Breath, you are hyperventilating or hypoxic. It'll be better this time next year after President Obama has started his second term. Disappointing the GnOP can't come up with a viable candidate for his replacement. The Silver Bullet you cling for is very tarnished, but I offer a shiny copper clad one for you misery. [Edited by: BIGOILEATURCRUD at 2/6/2012 2:40:07 PM EST]
