The cash for clunkers, despite many analyses to the contrary, apparently was a great success. How do we know? The White House told us so.

Both sides’ arguments are linked to in the article. Make your own judgment.

George W. Bush experienced acrimony with the New York Times, but for the most part, other than general frustrations of a conservatives administration, complaining about a liberal media, it was no big deal.

But in addition to Fox News, now The White House is going after highly-respected and influential car site Edmunds.com.

They’re actually using The White House blog to dispute the site’s analysis of Cash-For-Clunkers (via Detroit News).

Harsh!
