Welocme to the Government Directed Economy:
Obama Wants to Bill the Biggest Banks for $90 Billion

I guess Obama is now angry at the thieves and crooks of Wall street who were gladly accepting the bailout money just so they can award record bonuses this year...

Obama was a member of the liberal gang who made the banks to give all of those unsecured loans!

We need people who are a part of the progressive political establishment. People who will (who at least promise today) uphold the Constitution.
Scott Brown - Massachusetts
Allen West - Florida
Sara Palin - Alaska
Doug Hoffman - New York
.....
I wish I would know more names... Help me to find them. (v)

Gera, most of the ones you listed are what they call "tea party" candidates. ********thinkprogress.org/2009/12/02/beck-primary/

And, yes, I agree we need more of them. The fact that they even exist at all tells how fed up the country is with Dems and even the old guard GOP.

A few people asked me what i think of the new Obama bank tax.
Here is how is a parallel example
I have 2 friends John and Peter, due to bad economy and some stupid things they did both lose their job. They come to me and ask for some money. I don't really have any more to spare, as i am broke myself, but i really want to help my friends.
So I go to this guy I know Mao and ask for $2000, and he gladly gives it to me, with low interest and i don't even have to give it back for 30 years!
I take $1000 of that money and give it to John and $1000 to Peter. John manages to find a job in a year, starts making money and pays it back with 10% interest. Peter can't find a job, in fact chances of him finding a job are very slim.
(cont...)

I have to say as much as I agree with and support the country truning against the Obama adminstration I am quite annoyed by it too.

He got voted in by a great majority, everyone was euphoric over this wonderful "change" that was coming....Truth be told he hasn't done much, but he def hasn't done anything that shouldn't be expected from his election capmaign. So wtf with the people who were all for him and within a year turned on him. Perhaps they should have listened more carefully and thought a little more about their vote choices

I realize 2 things
1) I have $1100 that i got from John
2) I am still missing $900 from my original $900 that i will probably never collect from Peter.
Here is my solution
1) I go to John and tell him that he's now responsible for the other $900, or ELSE!
2) I take $1100 that i got from John and spend it for a "job creation event in my neighborhood" and by that i mean going to a strip club of course.

Obama was voted by a margin of 6 million voters... it is not a lot for a country of this size... we have abot 130 million voter and it will not take a lot to overturn it.
The problem is in the actual policies - for quite a long time we have politicians make laws and regulations, which are killing small business, working people - middle class. Until this changes, there is no light in sight.
The tax payers have no more money to pay for the stupid political ideas like Global Warming, Universal Health care, Big Government.
This country was not based on the Mao or Che Guevara... We have to demand to overturn all unconstitutional laws and regulations, we need to tell them - we want to be free of them.
The primary function of the President is to keep us Free, while keeping us Safe! Somehow - it does not feel that way...
Cheers...(v) (D)

yeah, except Obama wants all banks his "friends" to "create jobs", not only the ones who "did stupid things and lost their jobs" AND borrowed money from him...
and btw, would you be doing the same thing to your friends if you and they did stupid things together and it would have made them lose THEIR jobs??
PS. Obama sued Citibank in the 90s for not issuing enough sub-prime..
i guess I am the only one pissed about Goldman..(dt)
