The big three of the US auto industry appeared on capitol Hill in sack cloth and ashes to present to the Senate a penintential pair plus one. Beating their breasts , the industry that resisted safety and clean air regulations like the plague offered a united front of repentance after their earlier arrogant appearance last month.
Chrysler pleaded: " For Christ sake, save our sorry asses!"
Ford lamented: " Father forgive us for we knew not what we did !"
General Motors muttered: " My God, my God , why have you forsaken me!"
The Senate subcommittee spokesperson was heard to comment: " Moe, Larry, Curley ... OOOOOW, Gna, gna, gna!"
