The president and vice president just left.
« on: November 23, 2010, 02:54:11 PM »

Ok, I don't care if you like or don't like the sitting president,But after working 12 and 16 hr days to prep for him and the vice president.I can say it was an amazing experiance to live through when they came to speak,and tour our plant!
I spent the last few days making things for the secret service.Then I worked for Judy the Presidents press secratary to set up where everything would be for the photo shoots and all the stuff that was in the background of the plant.
I will tell you this.There is no such thing as an surprise visit by the president.They showed up a week ahead of time,and started making plans.I was so exhausted making and fabbing stuff,but it was worth it.I will never forget this day for the rest of my life. :D
Joe Biden opened with an awesome message .O'bama said moving words that made us UAW workers PROUD! I even got emotional.Sergio Marchione was there and let O'bama annouce that they are going to invest $800 million in our plants in Kokomo.

Awesome day for me.I just wanted to share my excitement.I hope everyone has a good night. :thumbup:

LMAO!  Yes it was a great time.My kids were excited to hear dads story ,and see the pics I took.They were with mom going to get sawdust for the stable and got to catch a glimpse of the motorcade pulling back into Grissom AFB to get to Airforce 1.
Oh and I will be back on the stove tomorrow I imagine.LOL!

I agree....  I personally wouldn't walk across the street to see them.  That goes for about 97% of politicians though.

My thumbs up to my fellow American! :thumbup:
I wish more folks in our country would take pride in buying and owning American made products when they are available.I know I buy them whenever I can.Plus I try and buy union made.
Dodge,Ford,GM it doesn't matter what you drive just as long as that's what you drive.I am proud of my job and the products we make at chrysler.I am also proud of the other American made products our wonderful country produces.
I apologize for getting off my original post here,but I have to say I am proud to be an American!
God bless everyone here. :thumbup:
