The same GOP lawmakers who opposed the bailout that saved GM were on hand to cheer when the automaker said it would rehire 483 laid-off workers at the Spring Hill, Tenn., plant, the daily auto website Jalopnik reports.

“The irony of the Republican lawmakers’ presence wasn’t lost on the workers who attended the ceremony; they booed Tennessee Republican Bob Corker, and one UAW official made clear from the stage that the union still remembered which politicians had voted to rescue Wall Street but opposed an auto industry bailout.”

U.S. Sen. Bob Corker —
Then: “This administration has decided they know better than our courts and our free market process how to deal with these companies….This is a major power grab.” – March 30, 2009.
Now: “At the end of the day we all have to feel good about what we did,” said Corker, who did attempt to negotiate the failed 2008 aid package. “I contributed to strengthening the auto industry in this country.”

U.S. Sen. Lamar Alexander —
Then:”This is not the right direction: taxpayer money down the drain, and Washington politicians trying to run auto companies. The sooner the politicians get out of the way, the sooner auto jobs and taxpayer dollars will be secure.” – March 30, 2009.
Now: “The center of the auto industry is still moving to Tennessee and the mid-South,” Alexander told WSMV-TV.
