The nation's economy is causing great anxiety, and no corner seems untouched by the blight of layoffs, or the fear of further stock-market erosion. It probably should come as no surprise that in this crisis, the journalists who have hailed Barack Obama for two years as the Messiah would want their savior's arrival to be accelerated. They've broken out in cold sweats, displaying a bad case of Inauguration Impatience Syndrome.


You can't reason with them and suggest that several months of transition are necessary to build a new administration, and for Obama it's not different. They certainly aren't showing the slightest sign of remembering 2000, when the Left, with the news media cheering them on, dragged the election results out 35 days trying to install Al Gore. Obama's inauguration needs to happen immediately, if not sooner, and George W. Bush should be tossed out like spoiling Thanksgiving leftovers.


In November, Chris Matthews demanded an incredible shrinking transition on Jay Leno's show: "We will not put up with mediocrity, and we've had it for too long." America just can't wait a few weeks longer: "I'm worried about this country falling between the cracks because we've got one president who's sort of already retired and we got another president who's politely tiptoeing around the job." USA Today founder Al Neuharth wrote a column in that newspaper urging only a month between Election Day and Inauguration Day.


Another unsurprising asylum for Obama term-jumpers is The New York Times, where several staff columnists were lining up to give Bush the bum's rush last month. Gail Collins, who until recently was editorial-page editor of the Times, proposed that Bush and Cheney should quit right away, leaving the executive branch in the loving hands of Speaker Nancy Pelosi to begin enacting Obama's agenda. "Putting Barack Obama in charge immediately isn't impossible. Dick Cheney, obviously, would have to quit as well as Bush," Collins wrote. "In fact, just to be on the safe side, the vice president ought to turn in his resignation first. (We're desperate, but not crazy.)"

Could have fooled me on the crazy statement.

Guess they can't wait to get him in office so he can just fix everything. Sure.:whistle:

Bush is still president like it or not.
However, it is the NYT.

Is there any doubt on the question of why they are going broke?

Hass the real election taken place yet? The Electoral College elects the President and Vice-President. All that was elected in November was a slate of Electors, who can vote for whoever they want.
If they think the presummed winner is ineligible due to questions over birthplace and/or corruption, they may very well vote for someone else.
Bottom line, BHO has not yet been elected POTUS, he can't take office yet.

Remember in 2000, the Dems were still trying to steal FL for Algore at this time.

You can't start printing those NObama $3 dollar bills until he's in office or commence blasting at Mount Rushmore!!! :coffee:

They want old Jug-ears in office before the Supreme Court says he isnt qualified. As if that will happen.
