PBS reports that the Social Security surplus, once considered safe for a
generation, now may disappear in two years, next year … or may already have
vanished.

Barney Frank to Code Pink: Grow Up
Apocalypse alert: Barney Frank tells Code Pink to “grow up”
posted at 5:40 pm on March 24, 2009 by Ed Morrissey, HotAir.com
You have to see this video from Townhall to believe it. Barney Frank, fresh from calling Antonin Scalia a homophobe, chastises the Left’s darlings, Code Pink, for being disruptive during his committee hearing today. In fact, he scolds them twice (via Scoop This)
Obama's Budget
Health, education and energy -- worthy and weighty as they may be -- are not the cause of our financial collapse. And they are not the cure. The fraudulent claim that they are both cause and cure is the rhetorical device by which an ambitious president intends to enact the most radical agenda of social transformation seen in our lifetime.

Depression: Cindy Sheehan Hardest Hit
More Women Working In Adult Entertainment
(AP) As an activist and darling of the anti-war left, Cindy Sheehan earned a couple thousand dollars in a really good week. Now, as a dancer at Chicago's Pink Monkey gentleman's club, she makes almost that much in one good night.

Frosted Flakes: Pelosi & Reid
Powerline, March 20, 2009 Posted by John at 4:15 PM
HT: HotAir.com
I'm stupefied to find that some people are defending the constitutionality of Nancy Pelosi's discriminatory, confiscatory and retroactive tax on people who receive bonus income from companies that got TARP money. I would have considered it a bright line rule that the government can't identify a class of unpopular people and impose a special tax on them. What's next? A 100% income tax on registered Republicans, retroactive to last year? If Pelosi's bill passes muster, why not?

TOTUS
Teleprompter of the United States.
Barack Obama even needs a teleprompter to get mad.

Pelosi: Fly as I say, not as I do.
Nancy "Marie Antoinette" Pelosi
Queen Nancy: "Fly as I say, not as I fly"
Same attitude. Different centuries.
Take a look at the documents obtained recently by Judicial Watch pertaining to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s military travel demands.

Insiders: "Obama Is In Over His Head"
Obama is in over his head in the view of the Washington Establishment, as reported by Howard Fineman in Newsweek.
A Turning Tide?
Obama still has the approval of the people, but the establishment is beginning to mumble that the president may not have what it takes.
Luckily for Obama, the public still likes and trusts him, at least judging by the latest polls, including NEWSWEEK’s.But, in ways both large and small, what’s left of the American establishment is taking his measure and, with surprising swiftness, they are finding him lacking.HT: HotAir

Obama: The Manchurian Candidate
‘Manchurian Candidate’ Starts War on Business: Kevin Hassett at Bloomberg.com
It is no wonder that markets are imploding around us. Obama is giving us the War on Business.
Imagine that some hypothetical enemy state spent years preparing a “Manchurian Candidate” to destroy the U.S. economy once elected. What policies might that leader pursue? More

Why Obama is like Cigarettes
Back then we thought it was cool, by in The American Thinker
Listening to Cramer essentially link Obama to America's economic cancer, you might notice some parallels between supporting Obama and smoking cigarettes.

Obama: A Hoover for Our Times
Barack Obama doesn’t just promise a tax increase; he suggests raising almost every federal tax.

Olbermann's Cornell
If you've ever watched any three nights of his show, you know that Olbermann went to Cornell. But he always forgets to mention that he went to the school that offers classes in milking and bovine management.
Indeed, Keith is constantly lying about his nonexistent "Ivy League" education, boasting to Playboy magazine, for example: "My Ivy League education taught me how to cut corners, skim books and take an idea and write 15 pages on it, and also how to work all day at the Cornell radio station and never actually go to class."
Except Keith didn't go to the Ivy League Cornell; he went to the Old MacDonald Cornell.
The real Cornell, the School of Arts and Sciences (average SAT: 1,325; acceptance rate: 1 in 6 applicants), is the only Ivy League school at Cornell and the only one that grants a Bachelor of Arts degree.
Keith went to an affiliated state college at Cornell, the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (average SAT: about that of pulling guards at the University of South Carolina; acceptance rate: 1 of every 1.01 applicants).

Obama Fiddles
Hope and Change: The Operation Rushbo Distraction
posted at 12:30 pm on March 4, 2009 by Ed Morrissey
If the first six weeks of the Barack Obama administration can be summed up in one sentence, it would be this: Obama fiddled with Rush Limbaugh while Wall Street burned. ...
It’s reminiscent of Nixon’s enemies list, and it comes from the supposed messiah of Hope and Change....
It’s a circus provided by Democrats to cover up their economic incompetence and massively ineffective spending programs. It’s also a harbinger of things to come as this administration fumbles one issue after another, as they will only need to expand the personal attacks against critics rather than respond to the criticism itself.

Rahm Emanuel !
Rush Job: Inside Dems' Limbaugh plan
From Politico:
Soon it clicked: Democrats realized they could roll out a new GOP bogeyman for the post-Bush era by turning to an old one in Limbaugh, a polarizing figure since he rose to prominence in the 1990s.
Obama says "BUY" Stocks
From MSNBC.com
He even seemed to make an unusual foray into investment advice. “What you’re now seeing is profit and earning ratios [sic] are starting to get to the point where buying stocks is a potentially good deal if you’ve got a long-term perspective on it,” he said.
Here's a hot tip: Less time on the basketball court and community organizing, and more time in Economics/Finance 101.
The guy who has no clue about finance/economics and markets is now supposed to fix ours? God help us all.
