Frontline runs a 1hr piece on just how morally bankrupt this elite Obama is

It can be seen in it's entirety here:

The Untouchables | FRONTLINE | PBS

Glenn Greenwald writes a very informative article as well. It's just plain as day Obama has no moral center.

Say hello to the new boss, just like the old boss.

Washington DC = Wall Street.

I've been saying this for years, yet right wing nut jobs still call me an Obamabot.

lol, I wondered how long it would take people to realize this. Look at the people he surrounds himself with. They are all wall streeters.

People really need to look at the Frontline link I posted. It's very interesting and informative.

The DOJ is now attempting to blackball Frontline from further access to the administration in retaliation for their adversarial journalism.

But but, padcrasher, Obama! I thought he was the working man's friend and he had our best interests at heart I've been telling people that about Obama for a while now, but the mainline liberals on here still swoon over him. Glad to see there are some intelligent posters in this topic that see through his BS rhetoric. That's why I really have to laugh at RWNJs who say that Obama is a socialist Marxist communist Leninist yeah, show me his voting record!

Obama is a socialist, this is not possible.

Besides, frontline is on PBS, which is communist.

No Savoir, you have it wrong. Obama is a socialist Marxist communist Leninist. Hannity said so, ok?!?!

Getting back to seriousness though, really, show me where in his voting record that he is a communist. Any takers? Anyone? No one? Who you associated with means nothing when it comes to your turn to bat. Obama's batted for Wall St. since he was elected. Where was his sorry ass when the unions tried to take down Walker? Probably meeting up with more fundraisers I forget where I read it, but SEIU's Andy Stern basically pissed on union workers in the past. Not even the union bureaucracy is to be trusted

In many ways, Obama is more status quo than Bush. Bush I can honestly say wanted to leave his footprint and had bold ideas, now they were messed up ideas, but he really wanted to make some changes.

Obama is just business as usual, keep the corporate elites happy, make some nice speeches, and kiss some babies. What a legacy.

What do I know, according to many conservatives I'm an Obamabot who drinks the Democratic parties koolaid.

The lesson learned from the financial debacle, is that justice is bought not served.
Also, the defense mechanisms in place failed, such as regulations, because the SEC that is supposed to enforce these regulations was understaffed, under funded which is exactly how these parasites like it to be.

Even when companies like JP Morgan, Bank of America and Goldman Sachs were called out on their crimes, they paid a pittance that was looked at as the cost of doing business and well worth the risk / profit gain so they did the same again, and again.

If you want to see the socialist, fascists or anti capitalists corporations and banks in this country, whatever you want to call it, then look no further than those that are in bed with our government.

How is that, "corporations are people my friend" working out for the country, where if they have enough money, they can rush straight to the head of the line, and via regulations kill off their competition that the small business can't compete with, but the big boys can.
