UAW takes offensive on Sen. Corker of Tennessee; White House will help bail out Big 3 automakers

The UAW released video of Tennessee U.S. Sen. Bob Corker effusively praising GM and its innovations in a visit to the automaker's Spring Hill, TN, plant earlier this year or late last year.

The videot that also aired locally is most damning and paints Corker -- who has led the charge nationally against the bailout -- as a gigantic hypocrite. And he was vigorously for supporting with little question the $750 billion bailout of Wall Street fatcats which has not turned around the financial market nor loosed the credit ones. He is the 23rd richest man in Congress. Think there is any conflict of interest?

Corker has blamed the UAW for the failure of his compromise bailout. But it seems Corker should apologize to the nation for vigorously backing GM in one moment locally and now damning it and its workers and auto dealers nationally.

Why does it seem that all politicians betray?
