The senators are likely to give GM several billions per year for 5 years as well as Ford and Chrysler in order to help fund some R&D costs towards more fuel efficient technologies. No where do I see anything that says bailout. None of the 3 need to be bailed out of anything.

Bush said he refuses to do anything. Obama and McCain said they will place a special funding.
