“My administration is the only thing between you and the pitchforks.”

Obama is a clever socialist, they always blame the institutions for financial failure then they turn the unwashed liberal masses against said institutions. Let's be honest Obama approved of the bonuses he signed the document and then he tells his adoring tarded fans it's the "Institution's" fault and the mindless left eat and drink the socialist lies like an all you can eat buffet.

Obama, Chavez, Castro.

The Three Amigos

Obama is caught slipping a horse's head under the covers.

Just a little friendly warning, you understand.

"Accidents 'appen, Colonel.  Things burn."

I was reading a little earlier that the large financial institutions that were bailed are looking into using that taxpayer money to buy the taxpayer subsidized toxic assets, repackage them, and sell them for a great profit ...

Sounds like a nice racket they've got going there, I wonder if any "Journalists" are going to expose this ...

President Obama likes to play good cop bad cop depending on what he wants from someone.

Care to share a link NoOne? It is kind of hard to get to riled up when the only facts offered look a lot like second hand crapola from a leftard website. I could be wrong, so show us the link.

The only thing Obama is really good at is pitting people against each other. He even has Rush's cousin Julie Limbaugh hating him now. Good job O, splitting families like that.

Like in his days as a Community Organizer, when he organized a demonstration inside of a BOA branch to pressure them into making mortgages to "under-served" communities. To add pressure to his lawsuit against them on the same topic.

Now he is our president.

There's a word for this kind of thing. I think it's extortion.

It doesn't sound like Politico's source was paraphrasing what Obama said; it sounds like he was quoting him. In the aftermath of Obama's buddies at ACORN mobbing at the homes of CEOs, and Barney Frank's (I think it was him) wanting "names" of AIG employees, Obama's threat -- "My administration is the only thing between you and the pitchforks" -- assuming he made it -- isn't a joke.

Obama is a serious threat to America. He's acting like the king pimp, grinning while he turns America out. And he's proud of it.

His manner, his attitude, is highly disturbing. When are the media players going to call him out on what he's doing?

Sorry, but this guy is -- seriously -- going to cause great harm. We're still early in his presidency, too. Something's got to give.

BTW, any bank retarded(Obama Approved Adjective) enough to buy repackaged tarp loans deserves to have their money taken from them. I just wonder who the customers for these "repackaged assets" will be and why they wouldn't just buy the assets for themselves directly?

breaking news... "strangle me elmo" finds the real culprits...

"The president of Brazil Luiz Inacio put it this way -- the
current economic mess is the fault of 'white people with
blue eyes'."

"Now he is our president."

My condolences, Tim. It's a bad situation, on a massive scale.

Did he really say the pitchfork thing? (It is does seem like a direct quote)

If so, those guys are screwed. And, by extension, we all are.

It's called arm-twisting.
I would tell the Democrats where they could put their pitchforks.

I think we need to let the northeastern liberals - especially those on Wall Street - suffer a bit if we can. They contributed money and support to Obama and His campaign. They are now reaping their rewards.

This is what happens when you support and elect Democrats guys!

I knew i wasn't going to enjoy a democratic president, but was prepared to give it a chance. What the heck, first black president and all that; it was important to a lot of people. But I didn't anticipate the policies and attitude of this piece of crap.
He reminds me of a player who does a victory dance in the endzone, except obozo keeps on going long after the touchdown while sneaking glances at himself in the big screen.

The US banks are reacting the way they should ... by not lending any more money to sub-prime borrowers.

No job, no money.

Not enough income, come back when you've saved some up.

Eventually, the Democats will paint themselves into a corner on this one.

Apparently, Chris Dodd is in big trouble after saying he knew nothing about the AIG bonuses, then having to admit he wrote it in the next day.

The American people will figure out, by next November, just who it was that got them into this mess.

Let's hope the damage caused by the Obamanation will not be totally irreversible by then.

How about "don't think we aren't keeping count".

But what does it matter? Michelle wears such gorgeous outfits and keeps changing them. Kinda like Palin used to do...

Odds are now that the Obama administration as used the AIG bonus issue to bolster populist sentiment against the entire corporate executive community in the US, it will very likely not come to fruition. Don't expect to see much fanfare in the media when Obama quietly sweeps the 90% tax on bonuses under the carpet.

0bambi's G20 protester envy is showing.

THUG POLITICS from Chicago, get used to it! the "ONE", with the help of ACORN, hasn't even started gerrymandering the districts yet. People need to wake-up right now, and step away from their television sets, as the distracting, covering up, and full out propaganda is increasing with each month. the "ONE" is so far ahead of everybody with their plans that I'm already wondering if much difference can be made by 2010, let alone 2012. the "ONE" can't help but laugh into the TV cameras, on the way his plan worked to demonize the AIG bonuses and executives. that was all planned out, including the taking down of Dodd.
the "ONE" will not fail, until the television and print media turn on him, and they won't turn on him if he's considering or enacts a bailout for the media. (the media is failing because they're so one side with their reporting that at most only 65% of the population consumes them)
that's why I say Get used to it, there will be many uglier stories to come, I'm sure!

The elitist PC idiocy continues! What will the Obamunists say after the next 9/11?

Hey Tim in Vermont:

http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/09_15/b4126020226641.htm

We are well and truly screwed.

Michelle Malkin has a column outlining how the Obamaists are going to rewrite the electoral districts, using ACORN, to carry out the next census.

This will count illegal aliens, visa holders and speculated numbers, to increase the number of House seats. Since these counts are in latino and illegal districts, these seats will go to Democrats in the House.

Michelle Malkin

She writes, "The Census is used to divvy up seats in the House as a proportion of their population based on the head count. More people equals more seats. More illegal immigrants counted equals more power. This is not hypothetical. The Center for Immigration Studies determined that in the 2000 election cycle, the presence of non-citizens (including illegal immigrants, temporary visitors, and green-card holders) caused nine seats in the House to switch hands. As the think tank’s analysis reported: California added six seats it would not have had otherwise. Texas, New York, and Florida each gained a seat. Indiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin each lost a seat. Montana, Kentucky, and Utah each failed to secure a seat they would otherwise have gained."

And, the Electoral College is based on these House Seat numbers.

The GOP is going to have to fight for seats, and, it's going to have to work very hard to get back control of the Senate.

EBD: "His manner, his attitude, is highly disturbing."

You can say that again.

I actually think that Obama is a psycho, and I'm not lightly or flippantly using that term. He's a confirmed narcissist, as ET has effectively documented in a number of her comments, who believes he is entitled to his opinions at any given point in time, whether or not they bear any resemblance to reality. He manipulates reality -- and it means whatever he says it means. His strings are being pulled by others and there's a ventriloquist somewhere in the building moving his mouth.

He's a rather accomplished actor and many in his "audience" (for -- make no mistake -- the Obama Presidency is Performance Art) are convinced by his heartfelt presentation and sunburst smile. But, he's not his own man.

Rough seas ahead. Batten down the hatches.

batb - I fully agree; Obama is pathological and most certainly, he is a Performer. He's totally enthralled by himself and convinced of the 'reality' of his performance; and can get quite upset if you don't accept and applaud. Either he'll attack you for such behaviour, or you will literally, for him, cease to exist.

And I agree; he's not 'his own man' in the sense that as a President, someone else is telling him what to think and do. That's what puzzles me; I claim that Obama doesn't have the intellect or psyche to do any economic, financial, political and societal thinking for himself. Therefore, who is doing it for him?

hudson duster!!!!!! all you had to do was listen to the preaching of Rev. Jeremiah Wright to ask yourself, what kind of person would sit with their family for over twenty years listening to that! how would the ranting affect someone, mold someone? if he disagreed, why would he stay listening week after week? He stay because he like what he heard, and he believes in it. spreading the wealth, taking from the rich white and giving to the poor black, establishing more entitlements, more affirmative action etc. etc.
I won't come straight out and call you a racist, but you typed yourself, in the post above that race was a factor for you!

"What the heck, first black president and all that;"

The problem is caused by all of the years, in which the media, has been telling us, that we should feel guilty, because some of us have more wealth or we had it easy because of 'our' skin colour, or because people with a certain colour ruled over others with a different colour skin. the media only says what fits the template. ie. we heard plenty from the media that Obama is related to this person, that person or the other person. or he has this % of Irish or that % of another, But when his heritage was traced back to an black African Lord that captured and sold black slaves, barely a breath was spent talking about it. I carry no guilt for what others did a couple hundred years ago.

Here's a guy that in his narcissism can't distinguish between an appropriate state gift versus a vanity trinket for heads of state. I think the mask is slipping on this brainless personality disorder.

He's starting to remind me of that creepy little lizard in Russia, Putin, another poser with demeanor and misplaced macho problems and that's scary.

batb - oh, and by the way, I responded to your outline of the 'gifts' the Queen gave to Obama, in the Reader's Tips of yesterday.

No, there is no evidence that she gave them those gifts; that was a spoof by Jonah Goldberg.

The Queen does not give gifts. She only gives that picture. The heads of state exchange gifts with each other but not the Queen.

No, there's no ring from Queen Victoria, no shetland pony, no first edition of Shakespeare etc. Equally, the list of presents supposedly brought by Obama - which included M&M candies, a signed copy of his book, etc - are all a hoax. It was April 1st, remember.

http://uk.reuters.com/article/burningIssues/idUKTRE53258J20090403

"On Monday, Morgan Stanley Chief Executive John Mack told employees his bank may buy toxic assets and package them for sale to individual investors, according to a person who heard him speak, but was not authorized to comment publicly."

"Three days earlier, Goldman Sachs Group Inc Chief Executive Lloyd Blankfein said his bank may join the PPIP as an investor."

"The Financial Times said on Friday that Citigroup Inc and JPMorgan Chase & Co, which together took $70 billion of taxpayer money, might also buy toxic assets under the PPIP."

Apparently when Obmama leaves the US the markets soar whilst he is gone, when he returns they tank again perhaps he could do the US a favour and go on a 12 month world glam tour.

Who's he working for, looking at the picture of him bowing before the Saudi King kinda makes you wonder if the Saudi Royals are his real masters? Destroying the economy for our enemies, or is he really as stupid as he appears to be?

His supporters are already geared to to commit voter registration fraud and apparently that's okay in the US? Maybe Canada should monitor the next election like we do in third world war zones.

"Now is the winter of our discontent."
I really think that a hundred years from now, this administration will be the setting for a remake of Richard III.

I'd prefer my chances with the pitchforks.

This is classic Obama strategy, he always has 2 paths to his goal, and he uses the Chicago style leverage whenever he needs to.

Example Cap and Trade, if it dies in Congress he already has over-funded the EPA to simply go out and fine the revenues out of the utilities and refiners.

Had anyone bothered to read the Stimulus package you would find 7.2 Billion over two years additional funding for the EPA, effectively doubling their budget by 2010 in concert with the budget. Where is the stimulus in that?

Get your green shirts and jack-boots at the door, and kids start ratting out your parents (just like the latest mastercard ad that has a kid teaching the father to be green) "Teaching your Father to be a Better Man...Priceless"

No kid of mine would force me to pay twice the price for green crap I do not need.

Man o man, that's an extremely dangerous game for a President of the United States of America to be playing - making personal threats in public to
people.
I wonder if he ever wrote a book about How to Create Instant Enemies?

These presidential mutterings ('keeping score') are away below the social grace, honor, and class of the POTUS.
It almost seems he has already forgotten that 58 million people did not vote for him.

"I knew i wasn't going to enjoy a democratic president, but was prepared to give it a chance. What the heck, first black president and all that; it was important to a lot of people. But I didn't anticipate the policies and attitude of this piece of crap."

hudson duster:

You guys didn't see a problem with focusing on a presidential candidate's race over their policies and attitudes?

The last fellow this self absorbed was named Nero.
He thought himself so gifted in all arts that he would put on acts himself.
During his own rotation or lyre playing he stationed guards at all the exits. With instructions to kill anyone who left fort any reason. Some days these Sessions would go on for a day. People would jump off the stadium to their deaths. Women bore children in the coliseum.
Men went mad. Nero all day all the time. Obama cookies to china. Next it will be his mug on the money. To Batb & Et You both are correct. This guy is a loon.
I feel ,sick every time I think of America going threw this after having experienced it myself under Trudeau. Only socialization of the Nation by collectivists, is going on at light speed down there. This guy is self destructing the Republic.
I can't watch the guy, its like seeing a monstrous mutant Pinocchio in action.

"I really think that a hundred years from now, this administration will be the setting for a remake of Richard III"

Or perhaps a remake of "I, Claudius", the Caligula chapter. Nero would be ok too.

Neo: Link to the article, white people, blue eyes.
This should open everyone's "eyes" wide open. The Big O is turning out to be, exactly what I predicted he would be, (2 years ago). The few of us "white people" had better wake up very soon. Now, the great O wants to have world wide health care. Give me a break, the only people that will be paying for this type of coverage is the "white people with blue eyes". We will pay, pay, pay; for our forefathers and their fathers decisions.

I wish I could find the time to photoshop rat whiskers on those bankers.

I dont hate them, but I resent the way they neglect to tell the truth about what the Liberals forced them to do.

Is it too much ask for one of them to break ranks and be honest?

Had I been in that room, I would have said, "With minimal due respect, Mr. President, the reason you got where you are today is because the free market made your socialistic supporters very, very rich. And the only thing standing between this administration and the pitchforks is the fact you know how to deliver a good line from a teleprompter."

Then I would have walked out and returned every red cent of government money.

That's what we need to do. If you think Obama and the liberals are full of crap, you need to say that, in no uncertain terms.

And you need to fight back. Don't be COWARDS, people. Give it just as hard as they do, and then do it tenfold.

Rebellion will save us.

Amy you are on the money

"a player who does a victory dance in the endzone"

Showboating is disrespectful and self-aggrandizing, but I suppose it can be sort-of forgiven if the accomplisher has done something amazing in order to score.

What I find annoying and over the top is basketball players being featured on morning sports highlights for slam dunks where the rest of the team did all the work getting the ball to one guy. Then, the one guy performs some overly-dramatic, designed-for-reaction stunt in the process of the incredibly difficult task of putting a ball through a hoop.

Wait - am I still talking about sports?

Keep the comedy coming, guys!
