He urged Americans to recognize the severity of the administration's inherited problems and promised, \"You're going to see more pace on the ball.\" <br><br>\"Remember, we're only 140 days into this deal. It's supposed to take 18 months,\" Biden said during his appearance in a pivotal electoral battleground state where unemployment has reached 10.8 percent and support for President Obama's handling of the economy has fallen below 50 percent in some polls. <br>Referring to the Republicans who have upped their attacks on the stimulus package in hopes of turning next year's midterm elections into a referendum on Democratic economic policy, Biden asked: \"Would they do nothing?\" <br><br>The aggressive tone and tempo of his speech came at a moment when the Obama administration is facing sustained criticism from the GOP amid worries that the recovery may stall.

As BusinessWeek recently pointed out, there\'s currently a "bull market for investment scams." <br><br>Ponzi schemes, in which a scam artist like Bernie Madoff uses money from new investors to pay off old investors, are a time-honored tradition. But we\'ve compiled a list of some of the more recent alleged grifters who, while diabolical in their own right, couldn\'t quite rival Madoff\'s $68 billion ripoff. The accused perpetrators range from New York society types, to "trans-Atlantic boiler rooms," to a multimillion scam on the island of Kauai. One of them even bankrolled a Paris Hilton movie, which, in retrospect, definitely should have been a serious red flag to potential investors. <br><br>Call them Mini-Madoffs. Call them evil geniuses.

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-12463207" class="dsq-comment-message">His Rudeness strikes again<br>Friday Fun (Featuring More Ass Than Usual):<br>Truth be told, it is a nice ass. Jailbait ass, yes, but a nice ass. And if the photo actually showed President Barack Obama checking out junior delegate ass at the G-8 summit, it might be worth a word or two. But it doesn\'t. It shows a frozen moment when Obama was turning his head. (Nicolas Sarkozy is another matter - that\'s a man scoping out la booty.)<br><br>The response of some on the right is an ejaculatory spray of spooge as if Matt Drudge just got a picture of Barack Obama getting a blumpkin from a tranny whore in the men\'s room of the Buenos Aires airport (or, for Drudge, "Tuesdays"). Over at Ann Althouse\'s joint, there\'s a post that\'s gotta be a parody, for if it is not, then an "Althouse" must be "a place where people never get laid," for she details a comparison of the body language of Obama and Sarkozy that says, "The foot closest to the woman, like Sarkozy\'s, is planted and aimed forward, but the other steps off in the direction of the woman, bending the knee upward into a bit of a crotch-squeeze and forming the base of a dramatic tilt of the entire body into a flexible S-shape that leans toward the woman."<br><br>At least one of Althouse\'s commenters just decided to go full retard with racism. Max says, "Sarkozy is thinking, \'I go home to Carla and you go home to The Beast of ACORN!\' There’s our leader doing what he does best – community booty organizer. The only ghetto mannerism missing is his unconscious hand clutching his boy-brain (crotch) in MJ fashion!" It\'s like the charming Freeper discussion detailed over at Kos about Malia Obama wearing a t-shirt and shorts.<br><br>The point here, as ever with the conservative commentariat, is not that they\'re having fun. It\'s that it\'s fun about a lie. When we in Left Blogsylvania laughed our asses off at Bush\'s stupid facial expression when he couldn\'t open a Chinese door or when he massaged the shoulders of the leader of another country, it was because he actually did those things. (And, well, that motherfucker did look like a chimp.) <br><br>It\'s just kind of pathetic, this desperate attempt to mock Obama, as if catching him in a butt glance will mitigate the myriad sins of the Republicans. It\'s like seeing a limping frog trying to get to a quickly drying puddle. <br><br>However, if Obama had been checking her out, well, c\'mon, can you blame him? Look at that ass.<br><a href="http://rudepundit.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">http://rudepundit.blogspot.com/</a></div>\

Each clip blends into the next, from a warehouse in Belgium to an office in Van Nuys to a living room in Sao Paolo, featuring hot chicks, formerly inanimate objects, small children, guys in boxer shorts, animals and some pretty cool animations. <br><br>One is reminded of Jackson’s greatness —he actually could moonwalk like a mofo — while it’s clear that 95 percent of the rest of humanity is totally clueless on how to execute the step.

He urged Americans to recognize the severity of the administration\'s inherited problems and promised, "You\'re going to see more pace on the ball." <br><br>"Remember, we\'re only 140 days into this deal. It\'s supposed to take 18 months," Biden said during his appearance in a pivotal electoral battleground state where unemployment has reached 10.8 percent and support for President Obama\'s handling of the economy has fallen below 50 percent in some polls. <br>Referring to the Republicans who have upped their attacks on the stimulus package in hopes of turning next year\'s midterm elections into a referendum on Democratic economic policy, Biden asked: "Would they do nothing?" <br><br>The aggressive tone and tempo of his speech came at a moment when the Obama administration is facing sustained criticism from the GOP amid worries that the recovery may stall. It also came near the end of a rough week for Biden, who said Sunday that the administration "misread the economy," only to have Obama publicly disagree with him. <br><br><a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/07/09/AR2009070901990.html?wpisrc=newsletter" rel="nofollow">http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/ar...</a></div>\

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-12471683" class="dsq-comment-message">Had the stimulus been what it should have been: timely, targeted and temporary perhaps the public would be more forgiving. But the \'rosy\' scenario upon which the Administration based the size of the \'stimulus\' package and the lovely charts showing unemployment rising above the levels predicted by the WH if we did nothing at all is it any wonder that taxpayers are anxious?<br><br>As for the \'straw man\' argument that the GOP wants to do nothing...well, we\'ve heard that before. But there is plenty the we could do to actually provide incentives for business to hire and people to spend, but such proven stimulus as payroll tax and capital gains tax holiday are an anathema to the Democratic Party. They have yet to grasp the fact that businesses (gasp, not the federal, state or local government) create the jobs and the incomes for families all throughout America.</div>\
