    It is outrageous that after all the boot licking, kowtowing, and abject prostration at the foot of the almighty dollar, that Obama is getting this treatment by the banksters!

    What more do they want? They got TARP. They have gone unprosecuted. They got their Obama tax cuts extended. The Treasury is run by their man Geithner. Here Obama is a good ole Goldwater Republican and he still can't get any respect from his corporate masters!

    The banksters are doing this because they want it all. They want no minimum wage, no taxes, no regulations whatsoever. And Obama has made it absolutely clear that there will NEVER be any consequences to anyone with
    money.


    You'll know when they have enough ... when they have yours!

    I guess this means they've picked their second candidate.

    When you've got more money than god, you don't just buy one side of the fight. You buy both.

    They bought Obama in 2008, but Romney is the 2012 model.

    You are saying the President SHOULD be bought and paid for?

    At least you are honest.

    The same firms are bankrolling Obama and Romney's campaigns. Seems like they can't find a big enough difference among the two to bother picking.

    Yes! The military does and so do I. I have respect for the military and none for these banks who took tax payers money while also raping them in fees.

    I support the banks right to gain profit and be succesfull but I also support capitalism and when you fail then fail dont buy off the government to steal my money.

    I don't think you understand.

    The bankers bought Obama AND Romney.

    For obvious reasons, they have the ability to buy both sides.

    Ron Paul is one of the few politicians that gets most of his money from individuals rather than special interests.

    Then there's Gary Johnson, who has very similar stances but also isn't bought.

    About the only way we'll ever break out of this two party prison is to either vote third party or for the occasional "outside" candidate like Paul. Despite being a Representative for a while, he's never given in to corporate corruption.

    Of course, that also is the reason why he won't get the nomination.

    MnBillyBoy understands, he just likes corporatism, socialism for the rich, a centrally planned economy, and thinks that we should shred the constitution.
