Hussein’s corruption continues. And the media yawns.
He has better things to do.
Rattner is moving full-speed ahead with construction of a lavish, $15 million summer home in the Lambert’s Cove area of West Tisbury on Martha’s Vineyard — a palatial mansion he’s had in the works since 2006. It’s caused a furor among wealthy Vineyard residents, who’ve called the planned 15,500-square-foot project far too big and gaudy, The Post’s Mark DeCambre reports.
GREAT ADDITIONS-—THANKS.
Obama’s 3 places of birth and questionable natural born citizenship!

Rattner has been tough on banks and hedge-fund managers unwilling to take haircuts on stakes they own in failing car companies.
Yet Rattner, his wife, Maureen White, the former national finance chair for the Democratic Party, and their four children enjoy plush lifestyles because of the success of his Quadrangle Group hedge fund, which manages Mayor Bloomberg’s $16 billion fortune.
His fund has been under scrutiny in a pension scandal being probed by state Attorney General Andrew Cuomo.
Is this the guy thats like 29 years old and didnt finish college?

Crooks are running our government. They cycle in and out, but all of them are crooks.
That’s great—I never voted for him anyway....
How absolutely TRUE!!!
It opens a spot in the Obamsky politburo for Rosie O’Donnell.
My first reaction was there is no other more incompetent liberal to be the car czar than Mikey Moore... his movie makes him about the brightest star the liberals could find with what they consider first hand knowledge.
There are normal people and then... there are Democrats. Remember when Democrats were for the little working guy? Now, they just screw them!!!
For some reason, I have Jackson Browne’s “Running On Empty” playing in my head...
Thanks. My tagline has been valid even before 0b0z0 became our el Grande Presidente’.
Ratter steps down.
Quitter! Train wreck!
Sound familiar!

It couldn’t have happened to a nastier individual.
