That’s ok boys. Hitler fooled a lot of folks early on too.

No wonder they got caught in a financial disaster, they couldn’t even figure Obama out. Was it because they allow their view of the world to be filtered only through MSM?

[flowerplough]

Duh. Idiots trusted a pretty politician. Duh.

[FormerACLUmember]

Same people who invested with Madoff?

Nice move, a**holes, financing and supporting Marxist vermin into power.

Gasparino is blowing smoke for JPM and GS. Dimon and Blankfein are getting exactly what they want from Obama.

If Wall Street was fooled by obama, well... Wall Street was not fooled by obama. Not the real Wall Street. This new generation of helium-breathing rocket-scientists and toilet-paper hoards, holed-up in their multimillion dollar Chelsea lofts; these spoiled-rich-kid hedge fund lemmings, yeah...they were fooled. By pretty much everything.

This is a really disturbing- but not surprising article. In particular, this got my attention:

...The funniest story I’ve heard lately came from a former Wall Street executive and longtime Democrat who anxiously recounted a recent conversation with Obama.

The executive said he told the president that he’s at a disadvantage because he’s relatively inexperienced in economic matters during a time of economic crisis. “That’s why I have Valerie,” came Obama’s reply.

“Valerie” is senior adviser Valerie Jarrett — a Chicago real-estate attorney and one of Obama’s closest friends, who has deep ties to the Windy City’s Democratic political machine...

They are not as smart as they thought they were. Not many people are.

Second article today from a major paper dissing The One. People are slowly waking up.

[Moonman62]

instead so driven to achieve his big-government policy goals that he and his policy people are ignoring their own economic advisers on the severe economic costs that his agenda will cause.

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

"Burned by Obama: Wall St. execs feel betrayed."

"Welcome to the party pal." ...Someone cue John McClain (picture needed)

[stevem]

Morgan Stanley's John Mack, BlackRock's Larry Fink, Greg Fleming (then of Merrill Lynch), JP Morgan's Jamie Dimon and Goldman Sachs' Lloyd Blankfein were telling everyone that candidate Barack Obama was a "moderate,"

Don't these companies have boards of directors? How can a boards of directors keep such incredibly stupid people in positions of authority?

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

Sooooo...why do the markets keep going UP? Who's buying securitites? The government? Something smells with this whole thing.

[EmilyGeiger]

Why would moderation be what was needed? I don’t understand that mindset for Wall Street. Conservatism works best in every arena I thought.

Burned by Obama: Wall St. execs feel betrayed

Welcome to knowing what it feels like to be an American.

[Adder]

vowing to curb runaway spending and restoring order to the banking system and the economy as a whole —

And they believed this crapola???? No wonder everything went swoosh down the tubes!

These people couldn’t find their butts with both hands apparently. Zero was NEVER a moderate. EVER. He told you he was going to fundamentally change things. He told you the rich were going to pay and pay some more and he told you what he was going to do.

What part of that did they not understand?

[tom h]

Clinton did the same thing to them. All my generation, in their 30s at the time, voted for WJC because he was "cool" and modern; Bush 41 was so old. Clinton's first actions, too, were to screw Wall Street.

My words to them? "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice ... "

[kindred]

[but in private conversations, the top guys on Wall Street are feeling burned.]

Marxism is anti capitalist and you would think wall street peoples would know that simple truth.
Stupid is as stupid does and when any capitalist is a democrat, I shake my head and am baffled by their stupidity.
