Speaks for itself [1]:

Something else to remember in November: Seen those cutesy ads from GM [3] about how they have supposedly “paid off” their government bailout loan? The administration is touting the announcement as a “validation [4]” if the “difficult decision” they made last year to bail out GM but the claim itself is not true [5]. GM is still, in effect, Government Motors [6].
Obama, while using the opportunity to push once more for permanent bailout authority [7] Wall Street “reform,” claims [8] he’s happy to see the government “getting out” of the auto industry’s business. Apparently he’s hoping he can still fool as many people this election year as he did in 2008 [9].
Let’s hope not [10].
