"Obama put Whitacre on the GM BOD"

There ya go. Obama is picking who will run GM for him.

"He[Whitacre, not Obama] fired the CEO last month and took over. Did Obama know about it? Probably. Did he direct it? I doubt it."

Doesn't matter whether he personally dictates every decision - GM is controlled by the government.
