WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama, who has ordered a pay freeze on six-figure White House aides, wants to talk to Wall Street executives about a report indicating payments of over $18 billion in bonuses as the economy was in virtual free fall.

"It is shameful," Obama said from the Oval Office Thursday. "And part of what we're going to need is for the folks on Wall Street who are asking for help to show some restraint, and show some discipline, and show some sense of responsibility."

OK, now howzabout blasting the USPS for paying bosnues to a bunch of losers? You want to whine and moan about private business and their excesses, but the same standard should apply across the board. But you, The Bastard, won't do it because, (1) you're a gutless wonder, (2) you're beholden to the unions, including the postal workers union, and (3) you don't have a clue about what really going on.
