Event: Digby Weighs in on the Auto-Industry.
Hullabaloo: They Work Hard For The Money.
This opinion means a lot to me. Digby is one of my favorite bloggers, and the fact that we’re on the same, or very similar, pages here encourages me. I’ve never really read anything of hers that isn’t reasonable and responsible.
