In a surprise move today, President Obama appointed Joe Elliott, lead singer of the popular British band Def Leppard, as the new CEO of General Motors, the government-controlled auto manufacturer.
Obama was immediately blasted by media and industry critics in addition to Republicans in Congress for his supposedly callous decision. When asked for an explanation, Obama immediately silenced his opponents by stating that Joe Elliott is as qualified to lead General Motors as Timothy Geitner is to lead the Treasury Department.
