Guys, if you go to the link, (and no doubt this is an hysterical article), but there are links to actual news stories and such.
It sounds irrational, but a year ago saying that Obama was going to take over General Motors and replace the CEO with someone he picked himself would have earned someone a full on tinfoil hat.
This was posted last and the news articles have little to do with narrative of the article and are less than anecdotal to the concept of the subject.
