Exactly who ‘makes enough money’ in Obama’s eyes? | Kyle Wingfield



Again, obama and his straw man - always looking for a target for his rhetoric to help him to push along his radical agenda.
I love this comment from one of Kyle Winfield's readers:
Kyle you dip wad you read something and see something that is not even there. “Success that’s fairly earnedmeans quit being dishonest, but I guess the crowd you run with that means screw as many people as you can out of as much as you can, and the talk about how smart and honest you are.

I agree, the comment "'Success that’s fairly earned' means quit being dishonest" sums it up rather sucinctly.

It's also clear why the right wing took his words out of context - this is SOP for them.

This is what he actually said:
"Now, what we’re doing, I want to be clear, we’re not trying to push financial reform because we begrudge success that's fairly earned. I mean, I do think at a certain point you've made enough money. But, you know, part of the American way is, you know, you can just keep on making it if you’re providing a good product or providing good service. We don’t want people to stop, ah, fulfilling the core responsibilities of the financial system to help grow our economy."
Yes, they are shameless liars.



Glad you see the contradiction in his words.
Where are the lies the so called right wing is spewing?

That he is going to cap what can be made in the market?
You didn't work for it so we are going to punish you. Is that where this is going?

When you take someone words out of context and make the meaning different than what he meant, that's a lie. Plain and simple. I could not care less as to what you think President is, that's your prerogative as a human being. You think he's a Marist, Communist or Nazi, that just shows your ignorance (or hate) more than anything else.

But to take his own spoken words an misreepresent them is down right dishonest.

i see obama as a corporatist.

obama wants the federal reserve to have MORE power. that is a pretty good reason not to trust anything he pushes in terms of "reform". his appointments of bernanke, geithner, etc., show where he stands more than anything he says.

do we really want to give an international banking cartel, which operates with impunity and in secrecy now, more power?

we don't even know what they are doing with our money now, and they have NO transparency whatsoever. the last thing we need is more secrecy.....

Perhaps you should look into the mirror once in a while.

He plain and simply contradicted himself, one sentence after the other. Which side of the contradiction is the lie? I guess it is a 50/50 guess!
The side that says profits/earnings need to be capped, or the side that says business as usual? Einy, meany, miney, moe....
