What's left?

This is a bad season for institutions.

Congress -- approval ratings scraping the bottom. Loss of trust, hyperpolarization, paralysis.

The Vatican -- how do you spell coverup in Latin?

Wall Street -- how do you spell fraud in Goldman-Sachs-ese?
Strong language coming from the Chair of the Senate Permanent Committee on Investigations today. Carl Levin used the word "shitty" 17 times in describing Goldman Sachs' allegeded unethical practices. Of course, they're back to making obscene amounts of money already.

The Republican Party. Can't seem to do anything right -- except obstruct progress. Will that sell in November?

The Boy Scouts. Courts imposed a million dollar fine for failing to deal with sexual abuse case.

Damn. The Presidency is looking pretty good by comparison (except to those who don't want to give Obama any credit at all.)
