Intelligencer accuse the president of diverting attention from real issues

Lying about the president and alternative energy sources
Just another Intelligencer editorial
Yesterday's editorial is a two-for-one. Not only does the editorial purposely distort for its own purposes President Obama's use of the word "crazy," it lies about the use of alternatives.
