Quote from gigsup:
That is true. Is he listening to them or idiots like Emanuel?
I think Volcker sees the handwriting on the wall, so he may be limited.
Let's be thankful that Obama doesn't have Bush's financial advisers which helped him create this remarkable resume:
-Spent the surplus and bankrupted the treasury.
-Shattered record for biggest annual deficit in history.
-Set economic record for most private bankruptcies filed in any 12-month period.
-Set all-time record for biggest drop in the history of the stock market.
-In my first two years in office over 2 million Americans lost their job.
-Cut unemployment benefits for more out of work Americans than any president in U.S. history.
-Set the all-time record for most foreclosures in a 12-month period.
-Presided over the biggest energy crises in U.S. history and refused to intervene when corruption was revealed.
-Presided over the highest gasoline prices in U.S. history and refused to use the national reserves as past presidents have.
-Cut healthcare benefits for war veterans.
-First president in U.S. history to have all 50 states of the Union simultaneously go bankrupt.
-Presided over the biggest corporate stock market fraud of any market in any country in the history of the world.
-Set the all-time record for biggest annual budget spending increases, more than any president in U.S. history.
-My biggest lifetime campaign contributor presided over one of the largest corporate bankruptcy frauds in world history (Kenneth Lay, former CEO of Enron Corporation).
-Spent more money on polls and focus groups than any president in U.S. history.
-Entered office with the strongest economy in U.S. history and in less than two years turned every single economic category heading straight down.
Ron Paul!
