Nice attempt at tongue-in-cheek grovelling. But too bad they didn't spend a few bucks on a designer. Or a proofreader. it'd be more appealing without the Misplaced caps and tpyos!

Business stinks! And we all suffer, including marketing and advertising agencies. And I for one just can't wait, until all these car dealerships are forced to closed their doors. American Thinker recently published a letter from the owner of a car dealership, who was very angry that his company was being forced to closed. Capitalism is dying, and heathcare is next on the Government's "To Do" list. By the time it's all said in done, at the end of the day; we'll be driving Barney Rubble's cars to work, and waiting in line for Dr. Kildare, to come back from the grave to treat us!

Business stinks and so does the proof reading...

Hey sometimes honesty is the best option, people know business is terrible so maybe this is a good way of pulling at people's heartstrings a little bit. Definitely would work on the proofreading a bit.
