“The irony is, is that on the left we are perceived as being in the pockets of big business; and then on the business side, we are perceived as being anti-business,” Obama said.....
Very easy, how can you know anything about business if you never have had business sense! he has had none, so how can he know anything about business, it is most clearly obvious to me in his speeches and his fancy words, that he really knows nothing about business. Clearly i feel that he needed more experience before taking on the task of promising the American People a new era of HOPE AND CHANGE. THIS IS SOME CRAPPY HOPE AND CHANGE IS IT NOT!
More so than I could ever have gleaned from four years of O's campaign rhetoric and far more than one could have researched BEFORE his aspirations were ordained by his handlers.
And yes, there were people trying to learn about O in his 'formative' years as well as his academic years.
They don't pull any punches and hit the nail on the head. They place the blame right at the feet of dear leader.
They is a he. Google the author, Denesh D'Souza, a hardcore extreme right wing Evangelical who has blamed FDR and liberals for 9/11 and once stated that Black slaves were treated pretty well. Go figure he slams Obama.
Basically individuals are doig the same thing as business in eliminating debt and saving.Its just a sign of no confidence with policies that make the future unpredictable.After the stimulus can anyone blame anyone not believing ?
Obama is indeed pro big business just like the last president. It would be more accurate to say he is anti small business and anti middle class and the very low income people. The gap between the super rich and the poor is larger now than ever.
The reality is that America’s supposedly anti-business president has led an extremely pro-business recovery. The corporate community has recovered first, and best.
The problem is that Obama supports Big Business (which is extremely anti-labor) since they pay him off, and he knows enough to play the game of behind-the-scenes deals and corruption like a Chicago Master. Money = power to a politician, and they wouldn't be politicians if they weren't power-mad.
So he will squelch his hatred for Big Business in return for cash, but his primary targets have no defense from a government that wants to destroy them: Middle Class (white) working Americans, as well as the Small Businesses which have traditionally been both the economy's major job-creator and the method by which the Lower and Middle Classes could work their way out of the socio-economic class into which they were born.
We'd be in trouble as a Country even if we had a leader who wanted to save us.

The rhetoric reflects a political calculation and a shift in the political culture. The calculation is that the best way to attack Obama is as a socialist (as ridiculous as this claim is). The shift in the culture is that since Reagan, anything short of complete deregulation is derided as anti-business. With the most pro-business Supreme Court in history, this trend is only accelerating. One can be pro-business without being pro-laissez faire. Modern day critics of Obama as anti-business would have us return to the days of Herbert Hoover and J.P. Morgan. Not good days for the rest of the country.
LMAO What recovery are you talking about?? There isn't one.
He bails out caterpillar and they send business to China.
Feb 11 (Reuters) - President Barack Obama said on Wednesday that Caterpillar Inc's (CAT.N) chief executive has said he would be able to rehire some of the company's 20,000 laid-off workers if Congress passes an $800 billion economic stimulus plan.
Sep 29 NEW YORK (AFP) – Caterpillar, the world's largest manufacturer of construction equipment, will build a factory in China to produce mini hydraulic excavators, the company said in a statement.
It is part of a long-term plan for investments in China that will make Caterpillar one of the leading manufacturers of construction equipment in the country.
