You're right. The article was too generous. Of course that's what he was doing. In fact, it seems pretty obvious that he's not even correlating them but implying a definite causal link. He may have worded it vaguely enough as to maintain plausible deniability but it would only be plausible to those who already agree with him. Why else would you dig up a post that's over two years old when something bad has happened if you're not trying to blame the bad thing on the subject of the post? You wouldn't.
