--- THIS is HOW a Leader Leads ---

[Bill Wiltrack]

* The President overcame furious lobbying by big banks to pass the most far reaching reform of Wall Street in history, which will prevent the excessive risk-taking that led to the financial crisis while providing common-sense protections to American families for their mortgages and credit cards.

The law created the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to prevent mortgage companies and pay-day lenders from exploiting consumers.

** President Obama negotiated a bipartisan agreement that led to a payroll tax cut for 160 million working Americans, giving them in effect a 2 percent raise through the end of 2012. A family earning $50,000 got a tax cut of around $1,000, or about $40 with every paycheck.

THIS IS HOW THE LEADER OF THE FREE WORLD SHOWS SUPPORT OF THE 99% of the REAL AMERICANS; OUR MIDDLE CLASS!

THANK YOU PRESIDENT OBAMA!

What's with you libs and socialism? We should let the free market handle things like exploitation. A few thousand people will be kicked out their homes after the bank nails them with hundreds of bullshit fees, eventually the rest of the country will stop going to that bank. The invisible hand would work if you stopped getting in the way of it.

That's called "buying votes for the party". Everyone should be viewed and treated exactly the same under law, we will never be equals in terms of existence that simply isn't a possibility as no two objects can occupy the same space, but we absolutely should be treated the same by law of man. Arbitrary exemptions for whatever non-sense just blows it all to shit. People now become "privileged" and you will argue "but they're low income, how are they privileged?" well they have a different set of governing rules for them than someone else, rules that may be viewed as beneficial from an outside spectator. That is all that is needed to see that it is bullshit. No exemptions. Arbitrariness only breeds more arbitrariness.

Also, ShawnD1 gets it. Why don't those who care so much about others losing their homes offer up a space for them to stay? Give them shelter, why demand others do it? That's because you want to skirt the responsibility you are dreaming up for yourself so you can feel righteous in "feeling a part of something greater than myself." You fucking tools.

Yet turned right around and collected those same taxes from the part of the 99% getting mortgages.

......

If this is the BEST you can articulate - I'll accept and absorb your responses.

I look forward to posting MORE EXAMPLES of LEADERSHIP by the 44th POTUS.

All Obama needs is a little red book..


"Anyone would think we had just elected a hip, skinny and youthful replacement for God, with a plan to modernise Heaven and Hell – or that at the very least John Lennon had come back from the dead.

The swooning frenzy over the choice of Barack Obama as President of the United States must be one of the most absurd waves of self-deception and swirling fantasy ever to sweep through an advanced civilisation. At least Mandela-worship – its nearest equivalent – is focused on a man who actually did something.

I really don’t see how the Obama devotees can ever in future mock the Moonies, the Scientologists or people who claim to have been abducted in flying saucers. This is a cult like the one which grew up around Princess Diana, bereft of reason and hostile to facts."

you're single-handedly making me loath Obama... what's it going to take to get the spam to stop? couldn't you offer a free iPhone at least?

 

[michal1980]

troll keeps on trolling.

The obama payroll seems overally bloated these days.

The invisible hand in the free market sloganeering sock puppet, right?

Both the crash of 1929 & 2008 were the product of *systemic abuse* on the part of the Banksters, of profiting enormously from excess risk.

Thick as thieves? Banksters are thicker than that... they're the mafia made legal.

How are you not on vacation yet?

Having sex with women is leadership? I guess this would be in contrast to the republicans who are terrible leaders and only have sex with men. What are you implying here?

 

[Bill Wiltrack]

I did not mean to imply ANYTHING about sex.

I posted a picture of part of America's first family; Barack & Michelle.

If anything, I would like to imply love and affection within the picture of the 44th POTUS & his wife.

AMERICA'S FIRST FAMILY!

 

[michal1980]

how about you fuck yourself

 

[nageov3t]

If anything, I would like to imply love and affection within the picture of the 43ed & 44th POTUS & his wife.

are you implying that GWB is married to Michelle Obama? that would certainly be worth a post.

AMERICA'S FIRST FAMILY!

thank you for this vital news, I would have never known who the first family was without this post.

how about you fuck yourself

I bet you rock a mullet.

 

[Matt1970]

I bet you wish you could trade places with Michelle

 

[Steeplerot]

how about you fuck yourself

Obama-booga-booga!

This is too easy dude. It's sad.

 

[Suspicious-Teach8788]

wtf is with the spam-like posts by the OP? Can the mods tell him to stop using large fonts.

 

[Steeplerot]

I bet you wish you could trade places with Michelle

Well Matt, you went there. They say once you go....

Excessive hero worship is probably a mental disorder.

It's also annoying.

 

[trenchfoot]

The pungent aroma of sour grapes wafting through this thread is making me have mixed emotions. On the one hand I feel like sending condolence cards to the Repubs in this forum, yet on the other I feel like also adding in that infamous picture of Romney with that smug look on his face just after he tore into the Obama Admin. in regards to our diplomats being murdered in Libya.

 

[FalseChristian]

All the Democrats want is capitalism with a human face. You need the government's hand in the economy to stop the rich from hurting the poor basically.

Obamacare is the right thing to do. Why should someone have to lose everything just because of a sickness. You can't operate hospitals like they are part of the free market. Noone decides to get cancer or break a leg.

Obama is not a socialist. Socialism is no free elections and no human rights like China, North Korea, Vietnam, Cuba and Iran.

 

[Bill Wiltrack]

THANK you.

This has come to the point of where a normal thinking induvidual looks wise.
