My favorite was the M&M's one the most.
I liked the Clint Eastwood one, except for the fact they were touting gov't motors.
The VW one with the fat dog, and the then Star Wars Catina were also good.
I look at it this way--had they changed the words, "Detroit model" for "American model" and left it at that (no Jeep/Chrysler/Dodge logos) I would have totally agreed with it.
But yeah, Steyn was pretty much on, now that I think about it, and it did kind of make me think, "Why the hell would we WANT to follow Detroit's example?"
Because let's face it--Obama's model IS the "Detroit model", and the California model, and the New York model--and they're all going down the shitter.
