Geithner to Honor Soldiers

On Tuesday afternoon, Treasury Secretary Geithner will attend an event at the White House with thePresident, the Vice President, the First Lady and Dr. Jill Biden to launch a national initiative to support and honor America’s service members and their families.

It should be noted that Geithner, the President, the Vice President, the First Lady and Dr. Biden all have the same military experience: Zero.

Then there's Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. view (via Butler Shaffer):

By saying that our leaders are power-drunk chimpanzees, am I in danger of wrecking the morale of our soldiers fighting and dying in the Middle East? Their morale, like so many lifeless bodies, is already shot to pieces. They are being treated, as I never was, like toys a rich kid got for Christmas.
