Complete and utter hypocrite:
President Obama has been happy to beat up on Wall Street “fat cats,” but tonight he’ll be even happier to take their money.
The President is slated to headline a superswank, $50,000-per-couple fund-raiser for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee at Manhattan’s gilded St. Regis hotel on Fifth Ave.
The high-dollar affair will feature fine French food, a bevy of Wall Street titans and 23 Congress members – including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).
This comes right after he cut terror funds from the NYC budget:
Obama is expected to be in New York City Thursday for a Democratic fundraiser and to shake hands with many of the first responders of the attempted Times Square bombing. And he can expect an earful.
Coming barely two weeks after the bombing attempt, Democrats and Republicans call the cuts an indefensible slap in the face.
The administration is moving to sharply reduce the federal dollars that now go to protect mass transit, along with the region’s airports and seaports.
And on the heels of this statement from The One:
Throughout the debate on Wall Street reform, I have urged members of the Senate to fight the efforts of special interests and their lobbyists to weaken consumer protections.
The man’s hypocrisy knows no bounds.
I firmly believe in capitalism and disagree with Obama’s vilification of Wall Street. The government and the President have no business getting involved with the running of private firms…but if your gonna trash talk about them then show the backbone to turn away from them. Instead, you look like a weak-kneed jellyfish who says one thing while doing the other.
Of course, we have been getting this from the man from day one so I shouldn’t be surprised.

Hah – would love to see the NYPD get up and walk out when the fraud comes to ‘lecture’ to them today – he would probably say ‘they acted stupidly’
Impeach please before the whole country implodes……
I beleive the message being sent here is make a donation or I will destroy you.(Or at least try).
When you look at it the way Obama does, this all makes sense. He wants to bring down the USA, and you don’t support YOUR enemies with funding from you.
Obama has aligned himself with OUR enemies and turned his back on OUR friends. This is all in his plan to become king of the USA. I wonder what he will call it if this happens.
Looks like Wall Street bigwigs are tiring of Obama and his merry band of misfits:
