"Excuse me Mr. Levin, but do you "Whistle While You Work."
DO WE look like we fell of a turnip truck..............?
Would there be a choice of big three jet planes or a bailout.

Thanks for the questions, but now we have to go out back to check out all the new cars they left for us.
Hey, wake me up when this guy's done, will ya?

WaMu free checking are you crazy?!?!?
Big 3 CEO's – "We would have driven to Washington, but chances are our cars wouldn't have made it."
Don't tell us we're too old. We still know how to spend $700 billion dollars!
It takes one senator to screw in a lightbulb. And six to screw up a multibillion dollar loan to the auto industry.
