My wife just got her work authorization card. She doesn't have her greencard yet. Can she take this authorization to the social security office and get a new social security card with no conditions written on it?

No... GC is needed for this

YMMV

Actually, I read that you need Active I-94 AND Active EAD for SSN applications. I'm not sure how accurate the valid I-94 part is but I know for a fact that you can apply for a SSN after a few days (when it's updated in the system) after receiving your EAD.

The whole point of an EAD is to work so you don't need to wait on your GC to apply for an SSN.

The conditions are that she has work authorization. The work authorization is the Green Card or the Work Authorization she already has. Basically, the Social Security Card says: only valid with Green Card. If she applies for a job, they want to see the Green Card anyway, with or without the conditions written on the card, so there's really no need to get another Social Security Card.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.
