Nefarious, job-stealing ATMs at it again? Jonah Goldberg shreds Obama

It’s funny, but devastating, because it’s true. Yep, evidently the maleficence of ATMs knows no bounds.

Yes. Yes, he did. As Twitchy reported, President Obama was interviewed on ABC’s “This Week.” Not only did he make an outlandish claim in defense of his foreign policy, but he also said this:

Uh, what?

Seriously.

NRO’s Jonah Goldberg smacked Obama as only he can:

Why does Obama have to be such a technophobe? Hater!

Speaking of economic moron, Laura Ingraham summed that all up in one scary-hilarious bumper sticker.

But, hey, laser-like focus! On buffoonery, evidently.

Getting A Job At Goldman Sachs Is Harder Than Getting Into Harvard

Nearly 270,000 people applied for 8,300 Goldman Sachs jobs in 2014.

Despite a wave of trend stories about finance losing out in prestige to technology and the persistently poor reputation of investment banks following the financial crisis, a lot of people still want to work at Goldman Sachs, and very few get the opportunity to do so.

In a presentation given at a Credit Suisse conference in South Florida, Goldman Sachs Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Lloyd Blankfein said that “nearly 270,000” people applied for 8,300 open positions at the company, and that, of the roughly 3% of those that got job offers, “nearly 90%” accepted them. “We remain the employer of choice in our industry,” Blankfein said.

While it’s not a perfect comparison, Goldman is in some sense harder to get into than the elite schools that it draws on for many of its bankers and traders. Harvard admitted 5.9% of its applicants for the class of 2018, while Stanford admitted just 5.1%. Yale’s acceptance rate was just over 5%, with Princeton and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology both taking in just under 8% of applicants.

Last year, Goldman said its analyst program, which recruits a few hundred people directly from colleges and universities, made job offers to 4% of its applicants.

The difficulty of getting a job at Goldman comes despite the bank’s pay levels staying relatively low, alongside revenues that are basically unchanged over the past years. Goldman spent $12.7 billion on employee compensation in 2014, the bank said, or 37% of its total revenues. In 2007, Goldman’s $20.19 billion in compensation expense was 44% of its total revenues.

After spending the entire day sniveling about assorted Uterati/Uterazi woes, Hollywood has-been Roseanne Barr went on a late-night Twitter rampage. After taking a swipe at small business owner and Twitchy founder Michelle Malkin’s employment status, Barr attacked her looks. Yes, really:

Hey, how’s that “Recovery Summer” working out for ya?

http://twitter.com/#!/whpresscorps/status/209317697895415809

In the wake of Friday’s disastrous jobs numbers, combined with oblivious White House spin, Twitter commentators this weekend are reminiscing about Team Obama’s vaunted “Recovery Summer” launched two years ago this month.

How is everyone enjoying RECOVERY SUMMER III?!? Re-elect Obama/Biden so we can have RECOVERY SUMMER IV, V, VI, & VII. #tcot #hewitt #sgp #p2

— Repeal Obamacare (@GreatHairGuy) June 3, 2012

So what ever happened to Recovery Summer 2010? Not really feeling it two years later… #tcot #Mitt2012

— Dustin Walker (@dustinrwalker) June 3, 2012

Flashback June 2010:

Vice President Joe Biden today will kick off the Obama administration’s “Recovery Summer,” a six-week-long push designed to highlight the jobs accompanying a surge in stimulus-funded projects to improve highways, parks, drinking water and other public works.

David Axelrod, a senior adviser to the president, said: “This summer will be the most active Recovery Act season yet, with thousands of highly-visible road, bridge, water and other infrastructure projects breaking ground across the country, giving the American people a first-hand look at the Recovery Act in their own backyards and making it crystal clear what the cost would have been of doing nothing.”

Remember folks, the 2nd anniversary of the Democrats' "Recovery Summer" is this month! Start planning your parties now! http://t.co/ilYBnSfj
