Eugene David<br>...The One-Minute Pundit

Even the CW types at Grate.com have their doubts:

As if to complete yet another State of the Union tradition, Obama spent a great deal of time on the laundry list of programs he was proposing. He increased the number of troops, hinted at the need for more bailout money, promised universal education through college and universal health care. At one point, he even promised to cure cancer.

This causes at least two problems. It sounds too good to be true (and it is), and the groaning basket of policy dreams creates dissonance with all of Obama's recent talk about fiscal stability. The polls show Americans list the deficit as their top concern. This won't settle their fears.

Which didn't stop the bozos who gave us the deceptive MEIN NUTS!!!!! from going,

Or rather, "IT WORKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" (Kinsleyesque with-a-wink-and-a-leer overemphasis added)

And elsewhere in Kaplan, Inc.:

We will soon find out how President Obama proposes to do all of this without making theoretical national bankruptcy a reality.

Yes, I guess we will -- and we'll have you hacks to thank, in no small part.
