WASHINGTON — US President Barack Obama has hit out at Wall Street "fat cats", expressing anger that banks bailed out by the government plan huge bonuses while millions of Americans battle poverty and unemployment.
"I did not run for office to be helping out a bunch of fat cat bankers on Wall Street," Obama said Friday in excerpts of an interview with CBS television to be aired on Sunday.
With unemployment still hovering at around 10 percent, amid a recession triggered in part by the excesses of financial institutions, Obama voiced frustration that "some people on Wall Street still don't get it."

Oh look, they all match, which proves that Michelle is really the boss!
He and his comrades look forward to that day. They’ll just come up with 5-year plans and assign our jobs to us.
phuque-that, screw them, the illiterates that they are.
Show me the successes that Marx had. None. 1917? In practice it doesn’t work. They were just a bunch of bitter asses who jockeyed for political power and raiding the cash that was on top. For them? It wasn’t about creating a stronger better society for every step, they failed. History shows that. Sure they had isolated successes but could not put the infrastructure together to broaden it.
Today? The KGB club maintains power, wealth and connections. They are a dirty bunch of politicians, much like theri brothers in Chicago.
More hypocrisy on steroids at work. Never mind what the other hand is doing just watch this one!
All true, but failure of marxism and the hypocrisy of its elites never stopped them from wanting to give it another go. In fact, promising to level society and gratifying the vengeful desires of the parasites, lazy, and stupid against the producers of wealth is one of the tried-and-true ways historically for gangsters and thugs to achieve power over all. Just look at the ongoing struggles in South America and other Third World nations. They’ve been doing it for years. The players may change, but the game remains the same. You’d have thought, at least a few decades ago, that western nations like the US and Britain were too educated and sophisticated to be vulnerable to such tactics, but the marxists haven’t been infiltrating academia and clamoring to import illiterate illegals all these years for nothing.
Careful, Obambi. Remember, you have placed the US in the hands of CHINESE fat cat bankers.
Besides, keep in mind that you are one of the ‘fat cat’ rich, having not worked a day in your life.
Well, as I live and breathe, First Frump actually looks very nice (though still L-A-R-G-E) in that photo.
Maybe Oprah told the Big MO what to wear, as in, “You ain’t plannin on wearin none a that there hood style clothes you usually put on, are ya? That ain’t a happenin on MY special, girl!”
Prolly the first thing this clown has ever said I would agree with.
I asked my local CBS station to take 60 minutes off so I could see another one of my favorite shows a little more regularly. They laughed even when I pointed out that no one watches it anyway!

Ask them to preempt “60 Minutes” for “A Charlie Brown Christmas.”

That's why I wonder if BO's "Fat Cat Bankers" rhetoric is just a mask to endear him to his clueless believers.
On the other hand, he probably could harshly abuse Wall Street, and they would still donate megabucks to his cause.
