From George Will, whose column is linked in the NRO web briefing:
Barack Obama displayed reality-denying virtuosity last week when, announcing the cashiering of General Motors CEO Richard Wagoner, and naming his replacement, and as the government was prompting selection of a new majority of GM’s board of directors, and as the government announced the next deadline for GM to submit a more satisfactory viability plan than it submitted at the last faux deadline, and as the government kept the billions flowing to tide GM over until, well, whenever, the president said: “The United States government has no interest in running GM.”
