Yep, all it will take is information like this -- y'know, facts -- and the RWS™ and their brainwashed teabaggers will stop saying Obama is a socialist who wants the government to own the banks and the automakers.
From the beginning, it was obvious to anyone who got information from, say, a NEWS source, that to the extent that government was "taking over" GM and Chrysler it was only temporary, and that taxpayers actually stood to make money on the deal. Same with banks.
So, yeah, any day now I expect to hear all those liars at Fox "news" correcting their disinformation. And within moments, I'm guessing teabaggers will march on Washington with signs (misspelled, but still...) saying, "Sorry Mr President. We sort of got it wrong. Nice job."
And our plum tree will begin producing gold coins.
Here is some extra reading on the topic that you may find "interesting". I like how O. blames the car makers problems on "poor management decisions" yet fails to mention that labor unions (which helped finance his campaign) demanding ridiculous wages/pensions as a major cause of their financial issues. Even better is how he parlays problems with the car companies into "proof" that the financial system needs to be "reformed". The guy is always workin' an angle; he's quite a salesman.
