As of today, Jan 9, 2009, General Motors did receive federal bailout money. While it cannot be proven that some of that money went to GMAC without seeing GM's financial records, there is a very high probability that it did.
Ford did not receive any bailout money.
no
No, they did not.
You mean Bank of America? No, it a privately held corporation, although they did get bailout money in 2009 (not sure if that's what you meant by "federal[ly] funded"). The only bank operated by the government is the Federal Reserve.
yes
Obama
About 4 billion
No.

This would be a tax law. In the US any law regarding taxes at the Federal level must originate in the House of Representatives. Like all laws it must pass both the House and the Senate and be approved by the President.
