Funny story in Newseek, "Hedge-Fund Managers March on DC "

In the largest chauffeur-driven protest in Washington's history, hedge-fund managers take to the streets. Dubbed "The Million Mercedes March," the protest was said to be the largest chauffeur-driven demonstration in the capital's history.

Limousines started Jamming the streets of Washington at approximately 10 a.m., as irate hedge-fund owners converged in front of the Federal Reserve building to demand stronger action to protect their imperiled riches.

Chanting "No rate cut, no peace!" the furious money managers were pepper-sprayed by police as their protest threatened to take a violent turn.
