Has Wiki entry on rumored Obama Treas Sec Lawrence Summers been freeped?
Edited on Sun Oct-26-08 09:09 PM by Kurt_and_Hunter
This man is a former Secretary of the Treasury which should kind of dominate the opening section of his Wikipedia article.

Instead the Wiki entry starts with "New York Magazine reports that Summers will probably succeed Henry Paulson as Secretary of the Treasury in 2009 if Barack Obama is elected president" Then, for some reason the whole first part of his Wiki entry is about the petty controversies surrounding his tenure as president of Harvard.

They never stop!

Expect some RW concern trolling in weeks to come about Mr. Summers "troubling" record.

The first paragraph now lists his major accomplishments.

No doubt it will be edited, undone, edited, undone, edited, undone, well, you get the idea. Who knows, if it gets too crazy the whole thing will be locked due to vandalism.
