Is Anyone Dumb Enough to Believe that Obama Supports the 99%?

Obama is pretending that he supports the 99%.

But Obama has raised more from Wall Street than anyone else. He is bought and paid for.

Mr. Obama has appointed the very Wall Street insiders who helped cause the financial crisis to top posts. See this and this.

He thinks that high unemployment is a good thing.

Obama – just like the other pimps in D.C. – has institutionalized fraud as an official (if unspoken) party platform.

Americans want our liberties restored, our troops brought home, and the Fed reined in. But Obama has implemented plans for war throughout the Middle East crafted by the Neoconservatives a decade (or more) ago, and gotten us into 7 (oops …8) wars, attacked our liberties even more than Bush and allowed the Fed to dramatically expand its powers.

Americans didn't want bailouts, but Obama helped to facilitate trillions in direct and hidden bailouts.

Obama doesn't support the 99%. He is a wolf in sheep's clothing.

As Yves Smith notes:

A saying I learned in Caracas: "A politician is someone who gets in front of a mob and tries to call it a parade."
