Breaking Bad News- New Chrysler Ceo/chairman

[Ragamuffin]

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen --In my opinion I am very,very displeased to announce that about an hour ago [11:00Pm August 5,2007] I saw the CNN news ticker and confirmed on a couple of sites, that Wolfgang has made the decision[via the Cerebus Board ] to replace Tommy LaSorda with former Home Depot Chairman , Robert Nardelli : who himself was replaced amid criticism over his pay and Home Depot's slumping stock price at the time !!! I have a very dismal and queasy feeling to put it mildly. Although I may not have all the info , i.e. if Nardelli knows anything about the auto industry and running an established company [ and somewhat teetering ] like Chrysler : I just don't think " he's the Man " !! Now , I'm also getting a bad and "Cutthroat" feeling about Wolf > GANG !!!! I only hope this move doesn't..well, I really don't even want to type the word _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ in this post !!!!!! Here : http://news.uk.msn.com/Article.aspx?...mentid=5813505 ..http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1186...=fpa_whatsnews !!! Damn ; I'm not even sure I can get any rest tonight. I may even get a bucket and keep near me ! Plus , as you'll read , Eric Ridenour, COO ,also has decided to leave Chrysler , after 23 years. I believe he was the one of two who announced in Daytona { July 1 ,2006 } that the Challenger was a GO !!!

This is very scary news. The home depot guy is bad news. A friends wife works for home depot and she said that guy ran the company into the ground.

Hmmmm... unfortunately, all we can do is wait and watch, watch and wait.

Well, Y-ahhh ; OK ! Actually, last night or earlier today , I was thinking that HEMEEE would make a great Chairwoman & CEO ? ??? ?

[HEMEEE]

Well let me think about it a second. K, that's enuff...
Nope, no thanks!

[HEMEEE]

Thanks a lot Ragamuffin, some pal you are!

Thanks 'Dad, that is a very interesting twist, let's wish him luck!

I haven't read yet where it says $1.00 minimum ! Heck, HEMEEE , I would definitely start you out with gobs more : plus you're worth it ! !! I think you'd bring a refreshing face to the New Chrysler and we all know you're a faithful ' insider' !! //// On another note ;about Wolfgang Bernhard and Nardelli .. I will wish Wolfgang ' Best Wishes' ; but only if his so-called personal and family reasons for leaving Cerebus [ so abruptly ] is really the truth! Something though is telling me that this is a big lie ! I believe [ and even my brother agrees] that Wolfgang was only brought in for one reason= to demote LaSorda and bring in "pal" Nardelli !! Nardelli has , what $200-300 million. He could have easily given $20-30 million to Wolfgang [ maybe in Deutche Marks] to slide him in ! Ironic that Nardelli didn't want to discuss his compensation package: which in light of his past might just have been the best and upfront thing to do ...unless it's of course quite possibly more than he got from Home depot [ provided Chrysler gets to the projected ' hilltop' !!!.... Also, now with Ridenour gone {who I thought was the CFO instead of COO [I may be wrong] } Nardelli could bring in a CFO ; to his liking : if you know what I mean !! !!!!!

Noooo!! Lasorda deserves a shot at it.

Yeah and how about this little tidbit : http://wheels.blogs.nytimes.com/tag/cerberus/ P.S. = Wolfgang Bernhard aboard the Tomahawk concept motorcycle at the 2003 auto show in Detroit. (Jeff Kowalsky/Associated Press) .. Awhile back, I kind of liked this picture , but now I seem to smell a mouse ?!?!

Seems to be some telepathy circulating : ' By contrast, Mr. Nardelli has barely finished his first week as an automobile executive. His appointment has led to a kind of town hall discussion in the industry — in union halls, on Internet message boards { including Challengertalk.com }and at an industry conference last week in northern Michigan — about who is best equipped to lead the industry out of its current troubles.' http://www.nytimes.com/2007/08/13/bu...syahoo&emc=rss http://www.nytimes.com/2007/08/10/bu...=y&oref=slogin
