Imagine that. A politician, caught in a fabrication. Why, I'm speechless. Shocked.

Clearly someone who's never bothered to listen to (or understand) the lyrics.
Indeed. I've been involved with the orderly shutdown of two businesses back in the 1990's, substantially smaller than a single GM factory, and the process can take months, or longer. My experiences, like those of the GM shutdown, were not cases where the doors are one day shuttered and the creditors swoop in to divvy up the spoils.
The milestone that really matters is the day that normal operations cease.
Yeah, there's a few essential people that continue to work and collect a paycheck between the time operations cease and the doors are forever locked, but that's not much consolation to the overwhelming majority of workers and management who are now unemployed in horrible economic times.
I don't necessarily blame for this Bush directly, but blaming Obama is disingenuous and ridiculous.
