How incompetent can this administration be? He can't even shoot the finger properly.

The president revealed his latest economic team, noting that they were not beholden to the financial industry, had a bipartisan lack of preconceived notions and where all "top of their class". In unrelated news, the stock market fell another 1000 points and the dollar lost 20% of its value in overseas trading.

U.S. President Barack Obama (on phone) is joined by members of Congress and local students as he congratulates astronauts in orbit on the International Space Station and Space Shuttle Discovery from the Roosevelt Room of the White House in Washington, March 24, 2009.
