The White House: Lowering Healthcare Costs One Nerdy Video At A Time
This thing is so earnest. It's like its own Saturday Night Live parody. Hard to know whether to laugh or just feel so good about the world that you start craving an apple.
Is there another nerd anywhere in America who can compete with Peter Orszag? ("Are they the same price?") Bill Gates retired. That guy from The Office is just an actor. Pee Wee Herman is long gone. I can't think of any.

I have to say he's doppleganger-ing some serious Robert Carradine.

You're just jealous Ana Marie Cox left you for him.

Of course, we have a Maoist too:

Oh for the love of everything that is holy...Get a life.. I mean DICK CHENEY THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES SHOT SOMEONE IN THE FACE....let me repeat SHOT SOMEONE IN THE FACE..and we are worried about someone wearing a Che Guevara shirt...I wore a Che shirt and Gasp I read a book on Che too...its called expanding one's mind...only sheep can't keep two competing thoughts in their head at the same time..and let me let you in on a secret...all this mao, stalin, russia thing really dilutes any legitimate criticism you have of Obama...when someone calls someone else Hitler...you kinda lose people after that

As a pinko, I'd say one thing about Chairman Mao: He wouldn't have stood for a "communications director" who looks like she's trying to catch flies when she speaks. Painful to watch:

And to top that off, her constant tongue wagging is indicative of many many years on an anti-psychotic. Not only is she a Mao Te Sung follower, but an honest to God WACKO!!!

Bring on the Thorazine!!!

The Psychotics are running the White House!!!
."Tardive dyskinesia - major signs of the condition are excessive movement of the lips, tongue and jaw, (known as oro-facial dyskinesia). The term "tardive" means delayed or late-appearing and this reflects the fact that treatment may have gone on for some months or years before the movement disorder becomes apparent. Oro-facial dyskinesia is the most common form of tardive dyskinesia. Other abnormal movements are seen including jerky, abrupt movements of the limbs and body, but these are less common.
It may be that people with schizophrenia tend to develop odd movements but may be especially susceptible when taking antipsychotic drugs. The control and planning of movement is a function of certain areas of the brain. If schizophrenia is thought of as a disease of the brain rather than of the mind, it can be understood why movement is so commonly disturbed in people with schizophrenia."

And in keeping with McCarthyites, this is simply priceless. And Rush is the victim in their collapsing world.

Kinda like Napolitano's report on extremism . . . .

"Pee Wee Herman is long gone"
I'm not sure he belongs in the nerd category. When I think of nerds, I think of pocket protectors, not pocket pullers.

OT, but almost 1/4 of the guys I work with have the flu. One's in the hospital.
-
9.1
Half of my family has the flu, including my pregnant wife...Eight hours for her in the hospital yesterday with severe dehydration due to nausea.
.
Wash your hands frequently, please. -
9.2
Sorry to read that grape_crush.
.
Best wishes for you and yours. -
9.3
Thanks, Paul.
.
I would just ask everyone to take this flu season seriously. -

Best wishes for you and your wife grape_crush. We're almost to the point at work where vacations are going to be cancelled and those of us that aren't sick might have to start working doubles. Almost everywhere you go where I work there is a container of anti-bacterial hand cream. Most of us are electing to work on projects by ourselves rather than with someone else.

Orszag works the geek hotness pretty well I think.

This was really funny, Michael. And you describe it perfectly. Thanks, and well done.

That was so cute. Love the part where he's talking about his daughters and does the hopping thing, lol.
And Orzag should not be compared to Gates, he's more of a Steve Jobs I'd definitely do him geek.
Bill Gates, on the other hand, seems asexual.

13.1
So is Orzag like a "gilf"?

Were it not for the OMB graphic right up front, I would have thought that this video was produced by/for the Ketchup Advisory Board.
