Gigot: Dan, what about this tension between the policies that Kim mentioned on green cars, which the viability summaries that the administration released basically said aren't profitable--and on the one hand, that's what Obama says these companies need to make. On the other hand, he wants them to be profitable, presumably.

Henninger: Well, that was the most striking thing that emerged from this, was that their own reports said that the GM Volt and some of these green cars simply can't make money for GM. The administration's response is, go forward with it anyway. If I can relate it to another issue, they have just run into a tremendous problem with their cap-and-trade proposal. Twenty-six Democrats in the Senate have opposed this.

Gigot: This is the global warming--

Henninger: The global warming thing, the carbon tax. There's a certain illogic to many of Obama's policies. And now that it's become something other than a campaign, that reality has become manifest.

Gigot: Holman, how long do you think it's going to take for the government to figure out it really can't run a car company?

Jenkins: I think sometime after 2012, they'll figure it out.
