President Bans GM From Making Left Turns

President Obama’s administration has announced the end of a southern tradition: American automobile involvement in the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing.  That’s right, Obama has removed Chrysler and GM from the racing circuit effective as of the end of this season. His reasoning?  Racing is expensive and both companies could stand to spend money on product development instead.  And should Ford ask for cash, they too will have to stop racing.  With the loss of both corporations, only Ford is left to represent North America against Toyota (and possibly Hyundai) in the once traditionally American racing series.

The news is sure to be a blow to Miller High Life drinking- stained white T-shirt wearing southerners everywhere.  When asked for comment, one southern fried fan responded, “All I ever had was pork tenderloins, Miller and NASCAR.  Now I am left with only pork and beer.”  Well put Josh, well put.
