‘Shameful’ Indeed

WASHINGTON — President Obama fired a warning shot at Wall Street on Thursday, branding bankers “shameful” for giving themselves $18.4 billion in bonuses as the economy was spinning out of control and the government was spending billions to bail out many of the nation’s most prominent financial firms.

The president didn't throw any shoes but he referred to the bonuses as "the height of irresponsibility." The spazzy white guys in lower Manhattan are seriously asking for an avalanche of shoes.
