  • Ahh shut up. Just GTFO of the White House before we impeach you.

    Go Ron GO

  • When you are a phony like Obama ... it's hard to keep facts straight.

    Be on the lookout for snake oil salesmen & their cure all products, false claims with fake credentials, avoid their miracle cures which are actually get rich quick schemes which are targeted at those with chronic delusions .

  • Obama is in bed with the banks whether you believe it or not.

  • "I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency... the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."

    By Thomas Jefferson

  • The American people are so ungrateful and uneducated... it's such a waste that Obama is working for these dumb losers.

  • @davidtheterminator He lies wake up for God's sake.

  • Your concern is ONLY for the financial elite. Fear is used to advance policies affording those elite no market consequence for malinvestment using tax money. You allow those elite to continue life unchanged at the expense of the American quality of life. Banks proved themselves unworthy of credit or bailouts. Yet you gave them anyway. The same institutions deem the american people non credit worthy? 2% of the population control 98% of the wealth. Do you see any correlation here Mr Obama?

  • @tblairosglodt = did you watch Glenn Becks January 25 2010 Show? Its worth finding; to see the Obama elite and the Apollo Project and its endless gerbil wheel of Ca$h going to "ObamaMoneyPeeps".= OUTED!........ and the rest tof OUR MONEY??? going to a freak show of Eco-Wind-Turbine Companies that are near dying. And those Milllions and Millions and Millions adding on maybe? a few thousand jobs? Makes sense to magical math Liberals!

  • Obama is a dumb ass. He's standing there telling people he's going to go get everyone's money back while he used to bailout these cocksuckers who fucked themselves. Meanwhile, he wants Americans to pay for his health care plan that won't work and when we're broke. I supported him in the '08 election. Then after a while when he became president I wasn't sure about him and would judge him later. After the health care plan I can't believe I supported this asshole who will bankrupt us.

  • @Gasparro18 you are so ignorant... which university did you go to?

  • @davidtheterminator your moms

  • Obama is a great man!

    And this speech is the proof. This speech should inspire all of us around the world!

    Unfortunately the world is filled with corrupt leaders whether in countries or in companies, I find hope in this man to try to fight for a fairer world.

    Thank you.

  • You talk like you know him personally. You should not come to that conclusion unless he's proven to you that he has earned your respect. The truth is, you don't know him, you don't even know your own neighbor. So please, instead of falling for his well prepared speeches that omit many facts, please go to your local library and do your own research on our economy and where the bailout money went and who actually benefits from it. I end by saying, u can't fix the economy by getting into more debt.

  • just the dialogue and the open mind that he shows with dialogues and negotiations to improve international relations, are worth it's election, and with hope he inspired the world to change, and not only the USA and even though this may not be much to you, for me it is a big thing.

  • too many people are allowing race to become a factor when voicing opinions about Obama. The truth is Obama is just another politician no different from his white predecessors. Nothing has changed. He calls the Bankers fat cats right after handing over a billion dollars in tax payer money.

  • @ramfire77 You are so ignorant... which university did you go to?

  • Obama never wants to enforce immigration laws so illegal immigrants can keep receiving welfare & healthcare benefits as in the case of Obama's aunt Zeituni Onyango, an illegal immigrant from Kenya yet lived in taxpayer-funded public housing complex in Boston for many years and also contributed $260 to Obama's presidential bid. In fact, Obama, with his immigration reform, wants to naturalize twelve million illegal immigrants so they can get healthcare insurance & vote for his Democratic Party.

  • Obamas being black dont mean anything to me,his liberalism and destruction of capitalism is.

  • he is not going to lower unemployment,its staying 10% for a long time and he will be voted out in 2012sarah palin if she would run would definately win against him.

  • Actually, 10% is down from 10.2% as of December 4, 2009. Check out the labor and Statistics website. Slow crawl down but at least it's going in the right direction.

  • @AfreeQueen

    the .2% was the margin of error,duh.

  • SO WHAT, it was still down. It was at 10.2% for over a month...ANY improvement is better than none. When his term is over and the unemployment rate is past 7, I'll expect you to jump off of something as not to give him credit for helping to fix the problems here.

  • I see that yellow stripe down his back,can you?

  • Man I hate racists.

  • @AfreeQueen

    Im not racist,if hillary won and was acting like he was I would be acting like a sexist,also goes for if john edwards won,boy do I wish john edwards won the nomination.

  • Would you say she has a "stripe down *her* back" as well? Right. That wouldn't make you a sexist, it would make you silly. Anything but a black man in your eyes. His birth certificate is STILL on factcheck.

  • @AfreeQueen

    If john edwards or hillary won and was doing what he was doing I would see that stripe too.

  • Your reference to said stripe was a racial reference. Tell me something. If his REAL name is Barry Soretoro, how was he born in Kenya with that name? I don't expect an answer. Because you dont' know the answer to it.

  • @AfreeQueen

    What does a yellow stripe have to do with race?

  • You are a racist. Why the hell would he have a stripe of ANY color down his back? I asked you if he looked Indonesian and you dont' have an answer. I also asked you that if he was truely born Barry Soretoro in Kenya, how could his last name be Indonesian? You have issues and I KNOW you wont' answer the question.

  • Every disappointed liberal is a vote for sarah palin in 2012.

  • Thom hartmann,ed schultz and mike malloy are very disappointed in barry soetero aka barak obummer,I wander why?

  • You are not right in the head. First of all, his birth name is Barack Obama, Jr. because his Kenyan Father's name was Barack Obama, sr. Does it LOOK like he is mixed with indonesian? Because that's where he got his adopted name (i.e, his stepfather) Lolo Soetero. They called him Barry Soetero probably for pronunciation reasons when he lived in indonesia from 6 to 10 until he moved back with his grandmother. there is something wrong with you.

  • @AfreeQueen

    How many birth certificates does he have?one for barak obama and one for barry soetero?

  • He has a birth certificate and one would beleive that because his stepfather shortened his first name from Barrack to Barry (not an awesome stretch of the imagination) and gave him his last hame that there is probably an adoption record also. He had the choice to change his name BACK to Barack and keep his father's last name. Tell the truth...you're operating on 3% of your brain cells, arent' you?

  • @AfreeQueen

    No,he just refuses to show us his kenyan birth certificate.

  • HE DOESN'T HAVE A KENYAN BIRTH CERTIFICATE..the only Barack Hussein Obama who was born in KENYA was his FATHER ...his NAMESAKE!!! Barack Obama was born in Hawaii! His father was attending college out there and met , got his mom pregnant and MARRIED her there! There are even pictures of him as a baby IN Hawaii with his grandparents. You are an idiot of epic proportions.

  • @AfreeQueen

    No thats a lie,he was born in kenya,went to hawaii and got a certificate of birth from hawaii without being born there.Barack in the 60s hawaii law was different.

  • It wasn't different.

    Hawaii was a STATE of the UNITED STATES when he was born. So all of the pictures with his white grandparents with the backdrop of Hawaii with him as a baby are superimposed images used to hypnotize people into voting for him? The way you birthers talk, you would think that Obama was deemed to be President when he was born so a scramble came about where they would falsify his birth records...because you just KNEW he was going to be president 48 years later. lol Wow.

  • @AfreeQueen

    Its possible.His parents were involved in the conspiracy.

  • Really...his parents got together and said "Let's make the first biracial president of the united states!!!! He'll be almost 50 when he gets nominated so lets hide his records NOW!!!"? Are you kidding me? Check back into the clinic you escaped from.

  • @AfreeQueen

    Its possible,not probable,but possible.

  • You're crazy. You're actually saying that his mother and father decided to concieve him KNOWING he would be the President Of the United States 50 years before the nomination would happen. There beginning the "hide the birth certificate" game started.....What are you, retarded?

  • i have to admit that i voted for him and i have been let down at almost every turn my only saving grace was there sure as heck no one else to choose from i sure dont think we would have been any better off with john and sarah the thought makes me shudder

  • Barry Soetoro changes into Barrack Obummer "NOW THATS CHANGE YOU CAN BELIEVE IN"

  • @mrtarzan227

    At least with mccain and palin we knew what we were getting.

  • @mrtarzan227

    He didnt lie about change,now did he?duh.

  • oh common barry, enough is enough

  • So basically he asked the banks to please be nice, and they said they would try. What a great leader.

  • Do you ever wonder why when GOD is around Barry is not?

  • Obama, a servant of Rome, ensures that the FED (Roman Banking Cartel) gets more tools to subvert their domestic opponents.

  • these oligarchy banks are so arrogant, Goldman Sachs was bailed out in the tune of billions of dollars, gave Obama's administration close to one million dollars in contribution (largest amount), and if it was not for bailout (which Paulson as treasury secretary under Bush and ex-CEO of Goldman Sach) conjured up), Goldman Sach was be out of business. Yet, the CEO of Goldman Sach, Blankfield, dissed Obama and did not come to meeting, we are in a bad state when a President is snubbed like that

  • What a joke, banks can loan out as much as they want...the act of loaning creates money out of thin air. Please research "fractional reserve banking". Oh, and banks are also getting 0% interest loans from the Federal Reserve which can create unlimited amounts of "money". Obama is such a tool.

  • obama is on the take. lmao well heres your change America. ahahhahaha what a joke.

  • No real 'change' will happen with financial reform.

  • The banks have been speculating with our tax money via the stock market instead to making the money available as loans. That is why they're making record profits and can afford to pay it back!

    Obama is a puppet and Goldman Sachs is the puppeteer!

  • Tie bank executive compensation to job creation and you will see lots of creative programs to help business to hire. Let them put the brilliant minds to work for the people if they want to get paid the outrageous bonuses. Until employment rate returns to normal, they should be paid the average salary everyone else is not getting.

  • After 5:10, Obama mentioned about the broadly shared prosperity.

    That must be NESARA.

  • Show me the MATH that the deficit can be paid. It can never be paid. Spend spend spend to create jobs and your US Dollar will be toilet paper.

    Now watch the Long T-bond dropping like a rock within 2 year. Then you'll have to print more money like in Zimbabwe!

  • Maybe I'm more stupid than a box of rocks, but I still don't understand Obama.

    How the hell is it that small business, that we hope are making a profit, can't use their own profits and money from individual investors to expand rather than going in debt. If businesses start borrowing, they will simply have that much less in the future for expansion and growth, because much of their future profits will be used to pay off their debts to bankers with included interest fees (bankers profits)!

  • Economics and business are not always intuitive. The way that venture capital and startups usually work involves a few loans. Interest is not always crippling, and often it is converted to shares in the company at opportune times.

  • Mr. President,

    What you need to do is stop asking and start tell them efing bankers what to do! Put some real executive weight on those mofos! Like right now!

  • That'd be a good plan, if it were not for 3 things:

    1) Presidents are not dictators, or even the whole government. They share power with the other 2 branches of government

    2) Rule of law

    3) Putting too much weight on banks risks them closing

  • He still has the power to hold derivatives against them.

  • If Ronald Reagan can tell all of the air traffic controls go back to work or else then President Obama can regulate the salaries of the CEO's with no problem. And if the CEO's don't like it then they can Quit well get someone else.

  • President Obama, we love you, and support you for what you are doing for us all!!!!

  • like what ?

  • To: President Obama, and other Democrats.  I hope you dont read this anti-American comments and think that the majority of the country is against you. The radical right wingers are the only people I know who dont want the progress Obama is trying to provide. The only thing I ever hear are people saying that they wish the republicans would stop getting out of the way of progress!!

  • Obama talking shit again.. seriously is this all you can say? what sort of bullshit can you come up with when it is your system that has created it. lol...

  • Obama you still hearing out of that ear piece, and trying to look likie your reading something lol.... gimp

  • I am calling to all people of the world to give attention to my demand and accept the truth of my revelation that the only way for economic recovery is to accept the reality in the event of the second world war that the national treasure of the world was brought to my nation herein the Philippine island and buried for the reservation of my great activity that my Father in Heaven has preparing all these for the fulfillment of his Promise and for the salvation of His people.

    THE GOLDEN ERA

  • He is such a blow hard! He forgets that he got tons of money from Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae in the way of campaign contributions! Now he is attacking the very banking system that supported him.

  • Wait a sec...did I hear that correctly?

    Taxpayers will be paid back in full...when can I expect my check in the mail, Barry?

    Also, weren't you part of the team of lawyers who sued banks in order to implement lower lending standards to minorities...many of whom didn't qualify.

    Aren't you part of the problem to begin with, you lying coward?

  • Of course they support federal regulatory reform.

    DC has been the backbone and enforcement arm of Banking for more than a century.

    Sure Obama, keep giving them what they want. Your constituents, the citizens you pledged to represent, don't matter do they?

    No news here.

  • This brown paper bag is a sing song orator with no music at all.

    His mama's boy.

  • A Putin gets those 12 CEO's in one room and they come out white as sheets and with terror in their eyes.

  • Debt credit creates nothing.

    Very simple.

    Never has and never will.

    I don't have time to explain in detail if you do not follow--There Will Be Blood has all the essentials down.

  • Madoff was an entrepreneur.

    To the tune of $56 billion, according to one rought estimate.

  • In fact Madoff is just the tip of the iceberg.

  • Paulson, Geithner, and Paulson, et al., are pulling another Madoff on a scale and in a way most of you dumbasses can't even imagine.

    "Failed to manage risk properly"--HAHAHAHAHA.

    And you have been elected the Greater Fools, the Pigeons, the Marks-got it?

  • Paulson, Geithner, and Summers...

  • "It's is clear each of of has a stake...."

    Sure--some have a positive stake and other's like you dumbasses, have a strictly negative stake.

    Got it?

  • Some people here should stop being so cynical. If the government can't improve your life right now, don't wait for them to do so. Think of ways you can do it through your own efforts. If youthink you've a much better solution to heal the economy, well then go forward and contribute.Better than bitching here and bad-mouth Obama. People who are too negative in life are often unsuccessful in life too. To me, he's neither great nor shit. I wait till he's complete his term to say anything more.

  • Firing squads immediately come to mind, minghan05.

  • What is it your waiting for?

  • it was about time some got off his ass and started giving crap to banks. However, giving crap ain't enough, there needs to be some regulating too... and that's being done, so good job!

  • Loans for collaege--HAHAHAHAHA.

    Student loans contributed directly to the real estate collapse.

    These motherfuckers are aiming at status quo ante--which by the way is a fantasy.

  • Now you dumbasses go out and run up big credit bills over the holidays, HAHAHAHAHA.

  • Some of the banks are reporting profits because of write-offs.

    The real economy is still in the tank and will remain there.

    Goldman Sachs had a good quarter all right--in currency arbitrage.

  • This brown paper bag could not win a fight with a cardboard box.

    He is also an economic illiterate.

  • Hmmm...How did great economic minds of our country or economic literates "read" the market to prevent its downfall and lingering quagmire? Just curious.

  • In the Finance Capital stage there is almost no connection between the stock market and the real economy.

    In fact the US real economy--not to put too fine a point on it--sucks a big one.

    The fundamentals now are worse than the Great Depression.

    And things are just getting started.

    There will be no "recovery" or return to status quo ante.

    You want to make money on currency arbitrage, like Goldman Sachs, sure.

    They got you to pay for it.

  • January 2002 oil = $19 per barrel

    August 2008 oil = $147 per barrel

  • Scams and theft are now called "not managing risk properly".

    The banks and financials managed risk just fine--they fucked up royally and they got you to pay for it.

    Indeed the banks are willing to loan--willing to loan you your own money, HAHAHAHA.

    Americans truly are among the stupidest people on the planet.

    Oh, and another thing--it will not work.

  • This is very simple but apparently Americans are such dumbasses they cannot follow it.

    Paulson and Geithner borrow close to a trillion from the private banks that control the Federal Reserve at interest and against the collateral of future taxes.They then give that money back to the same and other banks and financials free, and also assume much of their bad paper.

  • Now they want you to borrow the same money from the banks and financials as debt credit and a interest so they can pay back the free gift from the taxpayer.

    You pay interest coming and going, like a revolving door.

    The banks and financials pay nothing.

    Got it?

  • YEA Obama is doing a fine job i dont get why these people keep bad mouthing him if they know whats really right for this country they should build a political career and make the real change themselves!

  • Unlike the previous President he is involved and cares and is smart and has a large advisory board which he listens too FIRST then makes a decision and doesn"t worhship or creat caos and war...get a grip... listen to him and right wingers close your eyes...and listen ... I know you're unhappy you have a BLACK MAN representing your country but its time to get colorblind!

  • All you people do is bad mouth him. If you guys know how to handle the problem better why then didnt you run for president?

  • ....Because we do not have millions of dollars of funds from numerous international sources and unsoliciate support from celebrities (like Oprah).

    Money Talks when it comes to politics, Madcow.

    Google PAINSCOURT

    Happy Holidays :)

  • Why dont they make a political career and if people truly like what they stand for then they will give them support and maybe win to make real change

  • The majority of Obama's huge funding came from donations 200$ or smaller, from individuals. Also, non-US citizens and organizations can't even contribute to a Pres. campaign. In short, you just don't know what you're talking about.

  • If I do not know of what I am typing about, Poly, please visit these websites (not to mention of researching altogether):

    wnd (dot) com

    marketskeptics (dot) com

    whatdoesitmean (dot) com

    Youtube Search: "Solar Chicken" by PAINSCOURT

    That is just a start. I hop you enjoy your Holiday too. :)

  • You're seriously sending somebody to WorldNetDaily to confirm what you're saying?

    Good grief...

  • Not only World Net Daily, but the other sites I typed out too (Market Skeptics, Whatdoesitmean, PAINSCOURT). You do not have to believe me, just look around. If not, then that is ok too. It never hurts to see new things.

  • Fair enough. (Actually I do look at WND, but only for amusement.)

  • Here's wishing you a happy holiday as well! But my counter-proposal is that if you think anything in my argument is incorrect, or if you have an argument to support what I found to be baseless claims, that you post it here instead of referring me to websites to do the research which you should be quoting, not me finding for you :)

    I'm sure you can make a clear, rational argument in 500 characters or less :)

  • LOL, Poly. I already decided not to shove my perspectives and research/sources down people's throats. What good it would do, I I try to do so? Sometimes, curiousity can be a good motive for people to understand my point of views and/or show them more of truth and direction informatin/news, then to scream and yell like other players on Xbox Live, lol.

  • More lies,from the silver tounged lawyer.

    Henery kissinger must be proud,you both need to be tried and hung for war crimes and crimes against humanity,but people are so stupid they think war is peace these days...

  • Meet the bankers to discuss how to steal another 23.7 trillion from american taxpayers?

  • smoke marijuana believe in aliens

  • My President, where is the healthcare reform with a public option that you promised?? We dearly need that because we lost our jobs, and cannot afford to buy health insurance!! You are doing a great job, but we need jobs and health insurance now!!

  • I suggest you ask your Senators that question. Last I checked, the Pres. did not have the authority to break a filibuster.

  • Mr. Presidnet! Where is the healthcare reform you promised, and with a public option!?!? Alot of Americans need the public option in healthcare, since we have no jobs, and cannot afford health insurance!!

  • Why don't these CEO's tell Obama to go bag it, and mind his own damn business? He ain't the boss of them.

  • Jesus! What a stupid political show! He want to the subprime bubble return?!

  • Freedom of Speech? Why were my last two Comments Deleted on this page I can't give my 2 cents so you can Censor us are you didacticing us from Speaking..

  • It's "throw" lean English.

  • sorry about that, being bilingual sometimes you make those mistakes, the problem would have been if you had not understood, so I guess you have some common sense. You should get a job as a spell checker it seems that's you would do a better job than my browser's spell checker thanks to your common sense.

  • Learn*

  • how do u know he didnt mea "through"

  • pablowzekiel : Yea, I had no idea what you were saying.  "through", you meant "throw". rehm123 is one sharp cookie to figger what he said.

  • hmmm, i was hoping nesara was going to be announced. just a few more days then?

  • You guys seriously need to send some troops to Fox News and shut them up. It's a matter of going to Afghanistan and killing people or shutting down Rupert Murdoch. It's like the atom bomb decision. Are you going to stop the problem at it's source or kill innocents?

  • Fat cat bankers! Banks had to defend themselves against the stupidity of Barney Frank. They tried to comply with the moronic Barney policies and the idiot Democrats. They were forced to take unreasonable risks which got them into trouble. Now Obama wants them to CONTINUE making high risk loans with small businesses that probably won't survive. Bankers did what the fed told them they had to do and clean out the ghettos-slums by financing houses to people who could no way in hell afford them!

  • If McCain had won we probable would not be paying ACORN to set up brothels for underage girls.

  • Usual pack of Obama lies. He hates this country and is trying to bring us down to a level he thinks we should be. He has got to know that capitolism educated he and his woman. She hates the country too

  • President Obama!! In order to make sure the repubs dont start deregulation in the future. Why dont you just take over the entire financial instutions!! Obama, most of us do support all that you do, and we love you, and am happy to re-elect you for 4 more years!! As for most Americans, we do wish you would concentrate more on creating jobs, and get us healthcare reform, with a public option!!!!

  • Speak for yourself -groundhog. I live to see this liar leave office

  • PRESENT...

  • for all the ppl hating Obama, Not like McCain would have gotten us this far... He would keep everything a secret from all American, and McCain would take us back to the stone age. OBAMA FOREVER!!!

  • hey Mr. President! thanks for sending 30k more troops to Afghanistan and possibly removing the public OPTION from healthcare. i must say you are VERY different from Mr. Bush...

    (btw that was sarcasm)

    I truly regret voting for you. Standing in the voting polls was a waste of 30 minutes of my life.

  • lol wat!! more government... thanks Mr.President for more tax, more GOvernment...

  • I want to be an American b/c of Obama!

  • Awesome!

  • Good luck with that, Mr. President. It won't be easy reining in the Big Money financial institutions on Wall Street. Thay have too much power.

  • Comment removed

  • president obama is on top of things..you gotta love it*********

  • Let us see the government created the Community Reinvestment Act to force banks to make irresponsible subprime loans. GAve awards to country wide wheh they made irresponsible loans. Now blames teh banks for making irresponsible loans, but now is again pressuring banks to make more irresponsible loans.

  • Care to cite what percentage of the subprime loans were made by banks that actually fell under the regulation of the Community Reinvestment Act?

    Do you even know, or are you just reciting somebody else's talking points?

  • 16% more than enough to create a speculative bubble.

  • So you're blaming the housing bubble, which was confined to 2005 onwards, on the 16% of loans made by thrift banks governed by the Community Reinvestment Act of 77, rather than the 85% granted by NON-regulated institutions made possible by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 99, who then bundled and retailed them as obscure MBSs made possible by the Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000?

    You can really do that with a straight face?

  • The Com Reinvestment Act attempted to, as for a time, manipulate the price of money which is the interest rate. The interest rate should be tied to the risk of the loan. This is exactly what a bubble is a spread between real and  nominal value. The government created the spread between what the risk based interest rate should have been and what it was under the act. The bundling of loans made the damage hard to fix but was not the cause of bubble.

  • The Community Reinvestment Act made no provisions about interest rates. Please tell me where in the Act regulation of interest rates are specified.

    The CRA made no requirements about interest rates, nor did it "force" banks to make loans to risky clients. In fact Title VIII Sections 802 and 804 specifically say that loans are to be made consistent with the safe and sound operation of the institution.

  • obama is the one raping this country of freedom dignity and wealth!

  • And you're doing a disservice to people who are actually raped by misusing the word. Go ahead and use it for political purposes though.

  • thanks for your permission, I think it's a pretty apt term for what the fascist in chief wants to do.

  • And it clearly demonstrates your subconscious desire to have something dramatic and important happening in your life or the era you live in. I wonder how it must feel, to not trust the government or much anyone else. Or what it's like to turn away any counter argument or evidence of paranoia as being a part of 'it.'

    Sleep well I guess?

    Sometimes a United States president is just a United States president.

  • hey i'd like to have something dramatic & important happen in my lifetime ... who wouldn't?

    obama supporters may have "subconsciously" voted for the same reason. a black president, good or bad, is a dramatic & important thing.

    and i'm with shooter. america was built on principles that we should NOT trust our gov, that we should control it ... not it control us.

    a long time ago, our corps began to control it. and obama is only perpetuating this system that serves the wealthy, not the people.

  • First of all, anyone that voted for Obama because of his skin color is just as stupid as voting for people just because of party affiliation.

    Second, it's not a matter of not trusting the government. It's a matter of QUESTIONING the Government, and by extension holding it accountable. Running around calling people a liar isn't doing your duty, it's you being a crybaby.

    Get pro-active. Vote, campaign for others or run for office yourself. Make a difference if you feel it needs to be done.

  • Wow, you actually seem to expect people to be accountable for their actions. To take a stand in something they believe. You don't simply close your eyes and extend a hand waiting for this government to provide you with something. Keep up the work, it appears that you are the minority, the fraction of people who question the motives of others - I only wish more people would do this.

  • Great work, Mr. President. We need to restore a sane nation again, not one that rapes the common man and the environment just to make a buck and to INCREASE THEIR POWER.

  • Great!

  • Country Back Along with to put the Money in the Hands of the People where it Belongs. Not to the Fed or Banks of a few fat cats who Change the Lives of the American People and Charge Unnconstitutional Taxes. look And Accumulate Knowledge about what has been done then there will be hope for us..

    God Bless,

  • He's a Great Actor Obama is Surley verbose But has he Really do Anything

    Finish What job? Embelish about what you did for the American Taxpayer just all Talk.. He will Raze the Middle Class and things will get worse and he will continue to talk the same talk. His Job is to continue to try and ensue his Faulty Words.. While he Works Side-by side with his Wall-street Corrupt Agenda He Knows what he will Create a NWO or will he? Mabye if we as Americans will Stand against tyranny and take our

  • "credit worthy and banks that they've had a long term relationship with are still having problems giving them loans"

    The objective of the bank bailout was to diminish the problem... why is our economy still having this problem?

  • >make every effort to do so

    lol.

  • The government ass-raped the citizens to give money to the banks and then gave the banks NO guidelines with which to use that money. 60% with interest is a completely dubious number in much the same way that the number of "jobs saved and created" is.  Get the net, anyone that says the government is the solution to these problems is retarded. The constitution has NO provisions about bank takeovers OR anything about taking over private businesses. These politicians are making their own rules.

  • Why is Obama meeting with CEO's? It doesn't make any sense!

    Not to mention the fact that the "Bail Outs" were utterly pointless. All it did was give raises to the people who were responsible for this economic collapse.

    Don't negotiate! We need to regulate the banks! Many of the previous Depressions were from bad practices of banks! The Depression of 1818-22, Great Depression, ect.

  • maybe so but if the american car indrusty collapsed than a hell of lot of people would be out of jobs

  • @isaactrio Then capitalism would be working as it should. Those workers might temporarily be inconvenienced and have to work harder for a while, but in a good economy, weak business structures must yield to the strong business structures if America is to have a prosperous/growing economy. By bailing out the weak, the govt' has perpetuated the problem, keeping the economy weak. The American economy has great potential...but the govt' gets the hell out of the way for recognition of that potential.

  • screw, liar.

  • more LIES again from this POOR excuse of a human

  • Look who's talking

  • live by free market close there doors by free market

  • "loosening access to credit" is the reason we are in this mess to begin with. It's just happened and they forgot already. Maybe banks shouldn't be taking financial advice from a government which is 2 trillion in the red this year.

  • Thumb up for Obama.

    Great President.

  • The stealing is the government stealing power from the banks and from system of campitalism that has been built. Government demanding that bank loan money to bad risks is very wrong.

    The government is a wall between banks and their business.

  • WTF! What planet do you come from? The banks just ass-raped all of us. Don't see many pro-Wall Street retards on Youtube.

    FYI the banks ARE the government.
