First thing this morning I got a Direct Tweet from my brother alerting me to my factual error. I was upset by it. It was unintentional and I apologize for it.

If I knew then what I know now, I would have written,

“While Rep. John Boehner did refer to the passage of the health care bill as “Armageddon,” clearly he wasn’t referring to the total destruction of the Earth. No one was saying that.”

Alas, there is no Internet time machine and my error is evident.

It doesn’t change the premise of the article, though. Obama is clearly using ridicule to attempt to intimidate and silence his critics. Let’s focus on that, rather than my error.
