Obama countdown

Morning roundup of a stressful week

  It appears the boozing sanitation workers' video was mysteriously taped over. NY Post.
  Very disturbing the last couple days is the story of the teenagers who decided to flash mob a department store, stealing and vandalizing the mall. This may be a devilish idea inspired by the beautiful Hallelujah chorus flash mobs before Christmas. 
  We already have the anarchists flying around the world trashing England, Canada and whatever site they decide is too capitalistic. 
  Now we have Francis Piven of Cloward Piven fame encouraging the use of violence to achieve their ends. Though Glenn Beck sometimes sounds paranoid, these tapes don't lie.   
  The words are their own. Extreme progressives are encouraging the use of violence. Piven from Radosh at Pajamas Media:
What is needed, she suggests, are “mass protests” that might influence Obama and press “him hard from his base.” To do that, however, she notes that they have to get past the many obstructions to mobilize the unemployed. This is especially the case that the unions today “do little for their unemployed,” who don’t pay dues and “are likely to be malcontents.”
  Am I exaggerating? Here's a repeat from an article below and from The Blaze:

  Over at Big Government, a discussion ensues of how our government is mistreating minority students. Can you say inconsistency?
  In March 2009, the President terminated the Opportunity Scholarship Program – school vouchers providing educational lifelines for 3,700 African-American students in the nation’s capital.
In five years and half the per-pupil cost of DC’s abysmal public system, voucher students increased reading scores by 19% and high school graduation rates 12%.  Every year saw four times more applicants than slots. 
  So you've been back to work for two days? You'll be glad to know our president is flying back today. Don't worry. He'll probably get back to work right away since he can sleep on the plane.
  No TSA for him.
  As Drudge has reported, Obama's been busy thinking about appointing another Chicago crook politician as chief of staff. 
  All of a sudden The One is concerned about jobs, jobs, jobs and lamenting the very contentiousness and politicalness of, um, politics.
  Why can't we all just get along?
