'MONEY' HATING ON OBAMA

There are massive amounts of money being collected by groups opposed to Obama, most of which is coming from people that make their money directly or indirectly from oil and from financial firms. As far as the financial firms’ complaints, they include regulations imposed on them by this Administration, but that came about because you, the taxpayer, lent money to those firms to bail them out and you demanded that in return for that loan certain regulations be imposed to prevent the meltdown from ever happening again. Further, they absolutely hate that Obama has created a “Consumer Bill of Rights”, which puts forth limitations on the nickel and diming to death that credit card companies and their compadres have been used to getting away with forever. On top of that, Obama appointed, only at night when the Congress was in recess because the Republicans wouldn’t allow a vote on it, a Czar to actually implement the new rules. A la chingada, now your messing with their dinero, no Presidente before had the cojones to do this.
The oil dudes are not happy that he didn’t approve the new pipeline from Canada, the Keystone Project, although they should be happy that there is more drilling going on now than perhaps ever before, albeit probably with a few new regulations to prevent another BP-style spill, which almost erased the Gulf’s tourist and fishing industries. The overriding factor though, that has “money” mad at Obama, is that he is insistent on letting the Bush tax-cuts, which helped lead to the Nation’s second depression, expire, in order to raise about a trillion dollars to pay down the debt. “Money” is being asked to pitch in during the Nation’s rebound to keep it going and they rebel against that, instead arguing that we should become less Socialist by taking abuela off of Medicare, students off of Student Loans, newly insured people off of “Obamacare” and women off of free preventative medical care and contraception.

this should be called money spending obama
I wake up every day and open up my shop trying to make a little of that money that Obama is giving away to his friends. His rule on bussinesses are killing us, taxes are to high, We came to this country so that we could prosper, not to stand in line and asks for handouts. There was a time that if you wanted something all you had to do was put in a little hard work and a little saving you would get what you wanted. Remeber abuela was taken care of by the family, not the goverment.
money and obama
money to his friends? can you name an example? we know that unfortuantely the presidency is used to make "friends" rich, like Halliburton and Blackwater and other companies and their owners that got rich in Iraq, a false war. Mexico is probably the most blatantly corrupt, although all govts are guilty of it. i know many abuelas that do not have families that can take of them and without social security and medicare and medicaid would be in trouble. Obama has fought for the elderly and those who cannot take care of themselves and has asked those with extra means to pay their fair share. he cut taxes on the middle class several times. W Bush got is into a Depression that Obama is now fixing with over 4 million jobs in the last three years and a wall street on fire because of the economy trends they see.
