Edited on Thu Oct-20-11 09:01 AM by catabryna
I thought that was an interesting choice of words. I wonder where the "employer", i.e. corporate money is going?
eta: It appears that they are playing both sides... they want Obama to appear to side with Wall Street, because it makes both Republican and Democratic parties appear to be the same. That helps the Republicans.
