What's that got to do with Obama? You really think that after rehiring Summers and the other architects of this mess, he's anti-banker just because he makes a populist speech or two during an election year? He's done nothing but roll over for the financial industry since he was elected. The only thing that can be said for him vs. Romney or Santorum is that he's less likely to implement the agenda of the Mormon or Catholic churches.

Or continue the transformation of SCOTUS into an arm of the RNC.

If every single negative thing said about rich people is a threat to the GOP, then you people are so screwed.

I must have missed something. What does this have to do with President Obama?


You are aware of this thing called an election, correct? The outcome of which is heavily influenced by public opinion? And that this outrageous (but false) incident attracted a ton of media attention and plays into a major Democratic theme for the campaign? Don't be naive, that is no coincidence.
