Obama and the onerous FISA - Obama votes for FISA.

Obama and the onerous Bush-pushed 700 Billion dollar give away - that was supposed to allow for the Big Banks to loan out money to the average America. But which had NO TEETH, as it contained no provisions regarding any regulations about doing this. Obama votes for this sack of shit piece of legislation.

late November 2008, Obama says that "Hank is working hard." (A very early on "Good job there, Brownie," moment. And he was not even in office yet.)

But yes we loyal Democrats held our breath. Maybe the REAL Obama would show himself once in the White House?

But no, he appoints Wall Street and Goldman Sachs affiliated Geithner and Bernanke (and the odious Summers) to key economic positions. He refers to Geithner as his "buddy" during the 2009 Presidential roast. This team of Big Banking insiders now have created an unsustainable recovery, which is jobless as well. (And will probably come to unravel sometime in the next 36 months. Bubbles always burst.) Geithner gives away countless tens of billions to Wall St banks, but refuses California one half of one percent of the Eleven Trillion bucks that the Bernake/Geithner team spent on Wall St. (Currently forty percent of all working age Californians are out of work.) And BTW your grand kids will be paying off the eleven trillion bucks.

Additionally the massive amounts of collateral offered to Wall Street means that commodity trades go big time. Grain prices are bid up, while milk prices are bid down. The small family farmers auction off their cattle, while larger farms borrow from their Parent Company, so they can survive. Coming next year, there will only be the large Big Agra farms to push the contaminated, Bovine Hormoned dairy product onto the shelves of the groceries - at much higher prices.

But maybe Obama is better on the environment? Oh wait, he considers coal to be "Clean." He pushes for Velsick to head the Ag Department, meaning that Monsanto has an insider in a top position while they belly up to the trough. And he appoints Mike Taylor, another Monsanto drone, to head the FDA.

I could go on, but then I have to consider Pelosi and her death knell to small businesses -- something involving the Postal Rate hike pushed through Congress. This was virtually the first act of the Democratic Majority-led House in the spring of 2007. Amazon and Time Life got discounts, while the small publishers pay through the nose.
